Duke of Sussex to Receive Positive News Amid Efforts to Reconnect with King
Prince Harry is set to receive encouraging news regarding his role within the royal family as King Charles revises his succession plans.
The Duke of Sussex, who has been reaching out to his father following the King’s cancer diagnosis, may find himself with an opportunity to return to a royal role upon his upcoming visit to the UK. Harry, who last met King Charles in February after a personal call from the monarch, is expected to attend the WellChild Awards on September 30th.
Although a meeting between the two has not been confirmed, royal expert Tom Quinn suggests that the King’s recent adjustments to his succession plans could see Harry considered for a regent role in the unlikely event that both Charles and William are unable to serve. “Harry would not be dismissed without careful consideration,” Quinn told The Mirror, noting that constitutional rules take precedence over popularity or family disputes.
However, Quinn clarified that Meghan Markle would not hold any formal royal title. “She would be the Regent’s wife, nothing more,” he stated, citing historical precedent.
This move by King Charles offers hope for reconciliation with his estranged son, whose recent attempts at communication have reportedly been met with silence. Despite his frustrations at being excluded from succession discussions, Harry may now have a chance to re-establish his place within the royal fold.
The news comes after King Charles extended a heartfelt birthday message to Harry on his 40th birthday, hinting at a potential thaw in their strained relationship.
