King Charles reportedly 'too busy' to meet Prince Harry during UK visit

Prince Harry has reportedly been shunned by family members during his visit to the UK this week. The Duke of Sussex - who returned to the country to attend a High Court fight against against Associated Newspapers Limited over allegations of unlawful information gathering - 'made contact' with King Charles, only to be told he was too 'busy'.

The King is currently working from his Highgrove home before embarking on a three-day trip to Germany on Wednesday. His brother, The Prince of Wales is already away with his wife, Catherine, Princess of Wales and their three children who have broken up for the Easter holiday.

According to the Mail, sources close to Harry seemingly briefed a select group of the media, indicating that he had made his father to aware of his visit, but to no avail. It is unknown whether Harry is currently staying in Frogmore Cottage - the home in which he and wife Meghan have been told to vacate by June.

Meanwhile, his brother William, the Prince of Wales, is reportedly away with his family as his children have already broken up from school for Easter.

It is also unclear, meanwhile, if Harry and Meghan will choose to return to the UK for the coronation of Charles III at Westminster Abbey on May 6 or decide to stay at home. However, a spokesperson for the couple confirmed they had been in contact with the Palace over the coronation and would make a decision in due course.
