Hours after announcing that his father had cancer, Prince Harry arrived in London
Prince Harry arrived at the Royal Palace in London on Tuesday to see his father, King Charles (75 years old), a day after it was announced that the latter had been diagnosed with cancer, according to British newspapers.
The meeting between Charles and Harry took place at Clarence House, where the king was recovering after receiving treatment.
Sky News’ royal family affairs correspondent, Laura Bondock, described the meeting between the king and Harry as a “landmark moment.”
She added: “A royal meeting, but perhaps not a great reconciliation.”
She continued: “The fact that Prince Harry had to travel thousands of miles to attend this 45-minute meeting – bearing in mind that the two have not spoken in person in months – means that it was important.”
King Charles III appears in public for the first time after announcing that he had cancer

After King Charles was diagnosed with cancer… a move from Prince Harry
The British Sky News network reported that the Duke of Sussex, Prince Harry, spoke with his father, King Charles III, after it was announced that the latter had been diagnosed with cancer.
The type of cancer suffered by Charles III has not been determined, and it was discovered during surgery that he underwent 10 days ago for an enlarged prostate, and it is not prostate cancer.
Prince Harry’s arrival in London raised new hopes for reconciliation between the Duke of Sussex, who left in 2020, and the rest of the family, especially his brother, Prince William.
According to Sky News, Harry has no plans to meet his brother William during his current visit to the United Kingdom.
