Royal Successor, King Charles, Imposes Preconditions for Reunion with Prince Harry, Who Shows Persistence in Meeting
In the aftermath of informal talks between senior aides of Prince Harry and King Charles III, there's been a growing speculation about a potential reconciliation between the two, who have been estranged for years.
The speculation has been fuelled by reports suggesting that Prince Harry is planning to return to the UK in September. However, it's important to note that there's no specific information about a one-on-one meeting between Prince Harry and King Charles III in September 2022.
King Charles, it appears, wants any meeting with Prince Harry to be free of distractions, aiming for a private and intimate conversation. Contrary to earlier reports, Meghan Markle is not expected to be part of this potential meeting.
The ongoing efforts towards reconciliation come amidst reports suggesting Prince Harry's fears regarding his status in the Royal Family when his brother, Prince William, becomes King. These fears could potentially complicate any reconciliation efforts.
Princess Anne has been mentioned as a potential mediator or supporter for Prince Harry in his attempts to make peace within the Royal Family. In September 2022, Prince Harry did meet with Princess Anne at Balmoral, but this was not a meeting with King Charles III.
Recent reports suggest that Prince Harry is determined to meet King Charles next month, but he failed to secure a private audience with the King during his last visit.
Michael Cole, a royal expert, has suggested that Harry's various interviews have left Prince William "too hurt" to consider reconciliation. Cole believes that the depth, reality, and raw nature of the hurt felt by Prince William make him not ready to speak to his brother, Prince Harry.
It's worth noting that the information about Prince William's hesitance and the potential reasons for it comes from Michael Cole's statements to Times Radio and the Daily Express US, and is separate from the earlier reported openness of King Charles to talks with Prince Harry.
The return of Prince Harry to the UK in September is described as being about a father-son meeting, not the Sussex brand. This new development in the ongoing saga of the British royal family underscores the complexities and emotions involved in the reconciliation process.

During the potential reconciliation process, entertainment magazines might focus on the anticipated meeting between Prince Harry and King Charles III, if it occurs. The ongoing speculation about their relationship could lead to greater interest in the lives of royal celebrities.
Amidst the reports of Prince Harry's fears and possible challenges in rejoining the Royal Family, the focus is now on his planned meeting with King Charles III, rather than the Sussex brand Entertainment and celebrities.
