Monarch Plans to Strengthen Bond with Harry's Children Amid Health Concerns
King Charles is making efforts to reconnect with his grandchildren as Harry prepares for a visit to the UK next week.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have two children, five-year-old Archie and three-year-old Lilibet, who have had limited interactions with their grandfather due to the ongoing family tensions.
A source revealed that Charles, following his recent cancer diagnosis, is determined to build a stronger relationship with his US-based grandchildren. He is described as a “fantastic and enthusiastic grandpa” who is deeply involved in the lives of his other grandchildren.
Insiders stated that Charles is “absolutely committed to being present in all of his grandchildren’s lives” and that he “values family above everything.” Despite challenges with his relationship with his son, he is not satisfied with just seeing his grandchildren through virtual means.
The update comes ahead of Harry’s scheduled appearance at the WellChild Awards on September 30th. However, a meeting between the two may not be possible as Charles is expected to be at Balmoral during Harry’s visit. Their last interaction was in February, after the monarch personally informed Harry of his health condition.
