Discussions took place between their representatives last week

Prince Harry and King Charles could meet in September when the Duke of Sussex returns to London for the WellChild Awards, sources have indicated.

This comes after discussions took place between their representatives last week aimed at exploring reconciliation possibilities.


The potential reunion would mark a significant moment for the father and son.

The King's relationship with the Duke of Sussex has been severely strained since Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle, relocated to California in 2020.

Harry's planned visit to support the charity he has championed for 17 years may provide an opportunity for a private conversation between the monarch and his younger son.

Last week's talks involved Tobyn Andreae, Director of Communications for the King and Queen, meeting with Sussex team members Meredith Maines and Liam Maguire.

Both King Charles and Prince Harry are understood to have given their blessings for these discussions to take place.

The meeting between aides represented a tentative step towards addressing the fractured royal relationship.

The royal rift has dominated headlines since the Sussexes quit royal duties.

Sources indicate the September WellChild Awards ceremony could serve as the setting for a potential private conversation between father and son.

However, the outcome of such a meeting remains uncertain.

The royal relationship has remained deeply strained since Harry and Meghan stepped down from royal duties in 2020, a move popularly known as "Megxit".

In the years following their relocation to California, the couple have launched several public criticisms of the Royal Family, further exacerbating tensions between Harry and his father.

However, Harry did return to the UK earlier this year to visit King Charles after the monarch's cancer diagnosis was announced in February.

This visit demonstrated that personal concerns may still override royal rifts, offering a glimmer of hope that the family might take steps toward healing longstanding wounds.
