Prince Harry has tea with King Charles for the first time in a year and a half
Buckingham Palace confirms the meeting, the first in nineteen months
BarcelonaFirst sign of a thaw in the British monarchy. Prince Harry has reunited with his father, King Charles, for the first time since February 2024, Buckingham Palace has confirmed. The Duke of Sussex's meeting at Clarence House, the royal residence, reportedly lasted about 50 minutes, the time it took to have a "private tea." Later, when questioned by reporters at a later event, Harry only confirmed the meeting with the king with a "he's great" [It's very good].
Enric, who has lived in the United States with his partner, Meghan Markle, since 2020, spent a week in England attending social events. On Monday, he took an offering to his grandmother's grave on the third anniversary of her death.
There had been speculation for months about whether this meeting with his father would take place, after Enrique publicly stated in May that he wanted to reconcile with the royal family. Staff from the prince and Buckingham Palace had previously met to smooth things over. One of the issues that had been at odds was a legal battle over the security assistance Enrique required. The last time father and son saw each other was when his father was diagnosed with cancer, and Enrique flew to England to meet him. For the moment, there are no signs of a rapprochement between Enrique and his brother Guillermo.
