Concerns loom over King Charles, fearing potential anger from Prince William and Kate Middleton if he extends an invitation to Prince Harry for his 75th birthday celebration.
Prince Harry's desire to return to the UK with Meghan Markle and their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, appears to be unfulfilled.
While initial reports suggested that Prince Harry had plans to attend the King's 75th birthday party in the UK, recent developments indicate otherwise. According to a spokesperson for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, they've had 'no contact' from Buckingham Palace regarding an invitation to the milestone celebration at Clarence House.
Despite earlier claims that Harry declined the invitation and would stay in California, the Sussexes' spokesperson expressed surprise, stating that the couple had no knowledge of such an invitation.
Speculation arises that Prince William and Kate Middleton may have influenced King Charles's decision not to prioritize the Sussexes, especially considering Meghan's anticipated tell-all memoir. An insider suggests that King Charles initially intended to invite Harry to the birthday milestone but was wary of upsetting William and Kate, who are reportedly hurt by the ongoing attacks from Harry and Meghan and seek to avoid further royal drama.
On a separate note, Prince Harry, who left the UK with Meghan in 2020, is reportedly house hunting for a new property. Although there are conflicting reports about his intentions to return to the UK, with some suggesting a desire to set up a base for his family to bond with extended family members, royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams insists that a UK return, at least for Christmas, is unlikely. Fitzwilliams emphasizes the current lack of a base in Britain and the strained relations within the family, indicating a challenging situation that remains unchanged.
While there may be a mix of emotions surrounding Prince Harry's potential return, the prevailing sentiment is that, given the existing rift and the absence of a UK base, such a return seems unlikely for now.
