King Charles and Prince Harry quietly reunited at the King's private Highgrove estate in Gloucestershire on Friday, royal sources have confirmed, but one leading commentator says the 'real reconciliation' between father and son has not yet even begun.

The surprise gathering marked the first time King Charles and Queen Camilla had seen Meghan Markle, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet in person since 2022. The Sussexes joined the monarch at Highgrove on Friday afternoon, with the meeting kept firmly behind closed doors. Palace insiders have stressed that no official photographs or details of the conversations will be released, a deliberate contrast to the very public fallout that has dogged the family for years.
