Despite reports that they are working on their relationship, it appears Prince Harry and King Charles are no longer on speaking terms.
And the latest disagreement has to do with Harry’s concerns for his family’s safety.
When Harry returned to the UK in May, to celebrate the tenth anniversary of the Invictus Games, Charles did not have time to meet with him.
Meghan Markle was also not with her husband on the trip. And these two absences are not unrelated.
Prince Harry continues to clash with King Charles
Of course, there are many facets to the royal rift that has separated Harry from his family.
But how People stresses that the number one issue for Harry is safety.
The royals refused to pay for a security team in the following years. Harry and Meghan resigned as working royals.
And the courts blocked the couple’s attempts to hire police officers for their personal protection during their trips to the UK.
That’s why Meghan did not accompany Harry on his most recent trips home.
And it’s supposedly the main reason why Harry and Charles are no longer on speaking terms.
According to a source identified as a “friend of Harry’s”, Charles doesn’t even answer his youngest son’s phone calls.
“He is ‘unavailable now,’” the source said. People.
“His calls are not answered. He has tried to contact him about the King’s health, but those calls are also not answered.”
“Harry is scared and feels the only person who can do something about it is his father,” another source said. People.
“Harry is determined to protect his own family at all costs.”
Charles fears another PR nightmare, insider claims
Harry contacted Charles after learning of her father’s cancer diagnosis earlier this year.
There was a time when it seemed like the two could fix their relationship.
But the source says Harry’s recent efforts to contact his father have been met with “total silence”.
“Charles’ fear is a repeat of the past,” the source says.
“When his wife divorced the institution, she made headlines, overshadowed his work and became a global superstar. Seeing his son hang out with his wife was not part of the plan.”
A Buckingham Palace spokesperson says People that allegations of a security disagreement between Harry and Charles are “completely incorrect”.
But whatever the exact cause of the fight, it appears father and son are once again at odds.
