The Truth Behind William’s ‘Snub’ From Harry’s Peace Talks With King Charles

Why William was 'snubbed' from peace talks between Harry and King Charles.

Prince Harry has publicly spoken about his desire to reconnect with the royal family, five years after stepping down. The Duke of Sussex left the UK in 2020, and has since settled in the US with his wife, Meghan Markle, and the couple's two young children, Archie and Lilibet. However, following the news of King Charles' cancer diagnosis last year, Harry shared that he "would love reconciliation" with his father. During an interview with the BBC following his legal challenge for UK police protection, he explained: "Life is precious, I don't know how much longer my father has, he won't speak to me because of this security stuff."

Just last week it was reported that Harry had plans for a royal reunion without Meghan but it seems that a tentative reconciliation could already be underway for the Duke and the King. Per a report published by ITV, on Wednesday a meeting took place between Harry's Chief Communications Officer, Meredith Maines, the Sussexes UK PR representative Liam Maguire, and King Charles' Press Secretary, Tobyn Andreae. The trio's 'peace summit' reportedly took place at a private members club near Buckingham Palace.
