The feud between the royals is ongoing and that heavily affects King Charles’ relationship with his grandchildren, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, who received the royal titles following the passing of their great-grandmother, Queen Elizabeth.
While the monarch regularly interacts with Prince William’s children, he has been deprived of the opportunity to form any kind of bond with Harry’s offspring.
As per the Mirror, Charles “has had discussions” about visiting Harry and his family in the States “at some time in the future.”
Royal expert Tom Quinn spoke to the newspaper and said, “There is no doubt if it goes ahead he would build in time to visit his youngest son and his grandchildren, but there are mountains of planning to be overcome before that becomes even a remote possibility.
“It’s certainly possible that he would make a discreet private visit to Harry and the children in California,” the royal expert added. “He is desperate to see them and hates the idea that Archie and Lily will not remember him as the warm friendly grandfather he wants to be.”
The King meeting Archie and Lili on the grounds on Britain remains a matter of discussion because their mother, Meghan Markle, has been very vocal about not wanting her children to visit their father’s homeland due to security reasons.
When she and Harry stepped down from their royal duties, they were denied royal security while in the UK, which is taxpayers-funded, as they are no longer working royals.
Lilibet Diana celebrated her 3rd birthday on June 4th. The party was reportedly held at Harry and Meghan’s Montecito, California, home and a number of celebs were in attendance, Orlando Bloom, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Oprah Winfrey, among the rest. No members from the British royal family were there to celebrate with Lili.
King Charles, although not present at his granddaughter’s birthday celebration, extended his birthday wishes along with a gift, as per the Mirror.
“King Charles had no intention of completely ignoring Lilibet’s birthday, so he has sent a gift along with a message,” royal expert Tom Quinn told the paper.
Further, Quinn claimed that the monarch has another gift for Lili, a more significant one, but he’s waiting for the family feud to be resolved before giving it to her.
“He gave Prince George a beautiful hand-made wooden swing with George’s name carved on it, and he has plans to give something similar to Lilibet, but not this year. And not unless and until the family feud dies down,” Quinn explained.
According to Quinn, the reason why there were no royals in attendance at the birthday celebration was because they didn’t receive invitations.
