Prince William and Kate Middleton have made a big decision regarding Prince Harry’s upcoming return to home shores next month.
As per reports, the Duke of Sussex is set to travel to the UK next month for the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games. Much has been speculated ahead of his potential reunion with his family, particularly given the circumstances in which they currently find themselves.
With both King Charles and Kate Middleton fighting their respective cancer battles, there have been murmurs that the stage may be set for Harry and Meghan to seek some sort of peace with the monarchy. Yet, according to reports, any olive branches extended between Harry and Meghan and Prince William and Kate will have to wait.
It’s been a trying period of late for the British Royal Family, and the road ahead is paved with relative uncertainty. King Charles shocked the world when he announced that he had been diagnosed with cancer back in January, only for Kate Middleton to then one-up him with her own cancer revelation a few, short weeks later.
Needless to say, the senior royals have been feeling the strain, and as such most other worries and inconveniences have faded into obscurity. That includes, for the most part, the ongoing issues regarding Harry and Meghan.
Though the Sussexes aren’t likely to find themselves on anyone’s Christmas card list, the rumors and conjecture relating to their unstable relationship with the monarchy have certainly slowed down of late. That’s to be expected given that the current king and future queen both have cancer, but nevertheless it’s interesting with regards to the doors it may have opened that might otherwise have remained closed.
It’s no secret that Harry and Meghan were disillusioned with their life in the UK. More than that, they were actively disgruntled, and have publicly taken aim at a number of royals since moving to the US.
As a result, things are naturally tense, and the general consensus is that Harry and Meghan aren’t trusted in the UK. Worse, relations between Harry and his father and brother are at an all time low, with none of the parties involved seemingly prepared to rectify things.
With Harry set to return to the UK in May, it’s been said that the visit might be used to hold some sort of talks with a view to smoothing at least the sharpest edges of the ongoing strife. For William and Kate, however, that isn’t on the cards for now.
One well-placed royal insider is said to have told OK! Magazine: “William and Kate are very consciously focusing on positivity and recovery. Harry is due in London early next month, but there are no plans as of yet to meet with him while he’s over. He’s reached out and sent best wishes, but a meeting might be a little premature.”
That said, other sources claim that King Charles is keen to ensure that his sons bridge their divide. Last week we reported how the cancer-stricken monarch now wants to spend more time with grandchildren Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, with a royal insider telling Sky News Australia that Charles may play “peacemaker” to help William and Harry along.
“It is very likely that Harry and William will see each other next month and anything is possible,” the source said.
What do you think? Is there any way back for Harry and Meghan regarding their relationship and standing with the Royal Family? Let us know in the comments.
