Prince Harry arrived in London to be close to his father, King Charles III, who has been diagnosed with cancer, for which he has already started medical treatment. His younger son visited him at his London residence, Clarence House. After what the media described as a “brief meeting”, Charles and Camilla left London for their country home in Sandringham. Between the British monarch and the Duke of Sussex, who gave up his royal duties in 2020 and moved to Los Angeles, relations have become complex in recent years. But the announcement of his father’s illness, communicated privately by Carlo to his younger son, led Harry to take a British Airways flight towards Heathrow (London), where he disembarked in the early afternoon without Meghan and her children Archie and Lilibet, who remained in California. Royal experts were banking on this trip for a rapprochement between father and son and between brothers.
However, not even a meeting is scheduled between William and Harry. This is the indiscretion that has been circulated. “Prince Harry and William have made no plans to meet while the Duke of Sussex is in the UK to visit Charles, following his shocking cancer diagnosis [ricevuta] by the monarch”, they wrote in the Daily Mail. The tensions between the two would still be very tangible. The lack of conversation between the two “scuppers hopes of a potential olive branch between the two brothers…”, the sources revealed. Furthermore, Prince William would now be focused on his wife Kate, who recently underwent abdominal surgery and who, although respecting her commitments, will have to rest and recover in good health.
