King Charles "misses his bond" with his youngest son, a royal source has claimed.
The Duke of Sussex currently lives in the US with his wife and children, after quitting his position as a senior royal and moving away from the UK in 2020.
The Prince then launched a series of attacks on his family in the form of interviews and his memoir Spare.
However, despite the strained relationship, a royal source has claimed that Charles "has faith" that the duke will return.
King Charles "misses his son"
GETTYSpeaking to the Daily Mail, the source claimed: "Charles misses his son. He still loves Harry and wants him back for personal reasons – regardless that he and Meghan do not [want to] return to royal life. Harry will always be Charles's much-loved son.
"He has faith that Harry could return. He misses the bond they once had, and the door will always remain open to him and his family. He does not want years of discord and disharmony clouding his reign."

Harry last saw his father after it was revealed that the King had been diagnosed with cancer.
The duke made a transatlantic dash to London to see his father for 30 minutes, and stayed in a hotel and not a royal residence.
Speaking of the relationship between the father and son, a source told The Sunday Times: "The problem for the King and other members of the family is the worry that if they have a chat with Harry, it will appear in Spare volume two.
"How do you regain the trust? I don’t think Harry ever can. But from the conversations I’ve had with the King, I would never say their relationship is irreparable.
