The Duke of Sussex has been estranged from his <a data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/latest\/royal-family\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">royal relatives<\/a> ever since he quit the Firm in 2020 and made various claims against them.<\/p>\n<p>Recently, the Duke expressed his wish to <a data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/news\/royal\/2054853\/Prince-harry-sorry-royal-family-reconciliation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">reconcile with the royals<\/a> while speaking to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/latest\/bbc\" data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|AutoLink\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">BBC<\/a>, saying that he doesn&#8217;t know how long his father, the King \u2013 who was diagnosed with cancer \u2013 still has.

Harry&#8217;s chief communications officer Meredith Maines and Maguire, who runs the Sussexes&#8217; PR team in the UK, were snapped on a balcony close to Clarence House in London, having a chat with Tobyn Andreae, the King&#8217;s communications secretary.<\/p>\n<p>However, the fact that details of the meeting were linked to the press quickly enough so it could be photographed sparked concerns among royal watchers and fans alike.<\/p>\n<p>Royal commentator Hilary Fordwich told Fox News: &#8220;My instincts say that Harry is desperate. And King Charles loves his son and wants to have a restored relationship.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;However, this tentative step in any fragile peace process was marred by the leak of the meeting\u2019s details and photos.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;How on Earth was the media there? Both sides [have] expressed frustration regarding how such a leak jeopardises the process, with now suspicions and distrust being resurrected.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Ms Fordwich added: &#8220;<a data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/latest\/prince-william\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Prince William<\/a> is likely viewing this leak as being true to form for the Sussexes.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It further reinforces his stance that any reconciliation or indeed dialogue with the Sussexes will become public.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Sussexes have denied leaking details of the London meeting, while Buckingham Palace has declined to comment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Prince Harry is &#8220;desperate&#8221; to reconcile with the Royal Family but is faced with a big problem which&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":4293,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[96,59,2744,2745,983,1761,2743,2741,2742,2740,120,2746,2747,2748,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-4292","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","tag-entertainment","tag-gb","tag-harry-and-meghan","tag-harry-and-meghan-news","tag-prince-harry","tag-prince-harry-feud","tag-prince-harry-king-charles","tag-prince-harry-latest","tag-prince-harry-latest-news","tag-prince-harry-news","tag-prince-william","tag-prince-william-news","tag-royal-news","tag-sussex-summit","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4292","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4292"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4292\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4293"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4292"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4292"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4292"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
