King Charles is privately 'full of regrets' as Prince Archie turns seven in the United States on Wednesday, 6 May, according to a royal commentator who says the birthday will pass without a royal reunion between the monarch and his estranged grandson.
Archie's seventh birthday lands four years after Prince Harry and Meghan Markle stepped back as senior working royals and moved to North America, eventually settling in Montecito, California. The Sussex family has only returned to the UK together once since then, for the late Queen Elizabeth II's Platinum Jubilee celebrations in the summer of 2022, and there has been no public sign of a thaw in relations between the couple and the rest of the royal family.
