King Charles is desperate to reunite with Prince Harry, but he’s now reached “the end of his tether” as Harry refuses to compromise, a royal expert claims.
The pair have been caught in the middle of a bitter feud for years. When Harry and his wife Meghan Markle left the Royal Family in 2020, they opened up about life behind palace walls and made a number of shocking accusations.
Harry his slammed his father and said he “had trouble communicating, trouble listening, trouble being intimate face-to-face” in his debut memoir Spare. Their relationship has now been left in pieces and royal author Tom Quinn has suggested the monarch has has enough.

Speaking exclusively to The Mirror, Tom said: “Charles feels he has made huge effort to repair his relationship with his son, but that Harry refuses to give an inch. With that in mind Charles is changing his tactics.
“The new plan is to take a harder line with Harry; a move from good cop to bad cop, but palace insiders agree that Charles is at the end of his tether. He wants to be reconciled his son, but nothing he does seems to work.”
The royal expert suggested the problem lies in Harry’s childhood. He said: “One underlying problem is that Harry was never really that close to his father as a child – looked after by staff and shunted between Diana and Charles, Harry has always looked lost and forgotten and it’s too late now for his father to do anything about it.”
Royal fans had hoped Harry and Charles would reunite when the Duke of Sussex returned to the UK earlier this month, however, the pair failed to meet. At the time, a spokesperson for Harry said the monarch was too busy to see his son.
In a statement, they said: “It unfortunately will not be possible due to His Majesty’s full programme. The Duke of course is understanding of his father’s diary of commitments and various other priorities and hopes to see him soon.”
However, it was later reported that Charles had offered to meet with his son, but Harry turned down the offer. The Sunday Times claimed the monarch agreed to let his son stay in a royal residence for the trip, but this was turned down by Harry, who instead opted to stay in a hotel.
