The Prince of Wales met with his son and his wife, Meghan Markle, but the meeting was reportedly short and tense.
Much has been said about Queen Elizabeth's long-awaited reunion with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, but this weekend they also met with Prince Charles.
Unlike the visit to the queen, in which they talked about the Invictus Games – the reason why the Sussexes traveled to Europe –, and where Harry “promised” the queen that he would soon be able to hug his great-grandchildren, Archie and Lilibet , the meeting with the Prince of Wales, 73, was not so friendly.
The meeting with Charles at Windsor Castle, held before that of Elizabeth II, was a “tense” talk, according to the Daily Mirror.
“It started around 10 am and lasted about 15 minutes,” the newspaper notes.
According to the Daily Mail, Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, entered approximately halfway through.
“He (Carlos) loves his son and is heartbroken by everything that has happened; She fears that Diana's story will be repeated in Harry. But he also wants to keep the door open and stay in communication, something he still regrets not doing with Diana,” the source reveals.
At the end of the meeting they finally saw the monarch, where “the atmosphere was much less tense.”
According to the Mirror, Meghan and Harry are aware that the queen is aging and that she has had health problems associated with her age. “They made it clear that they plan to return to see the queen with her family in the near future,” the newspaper states.
The relationship between father and son began to deteriorate in 2020, when the Sussexes decided to stop being senior members of the royal family to live a solitary life in the United States. But the most serious blow was the interview that the couple gave to Oprah Winfrey in March 2021, shortly before the death of the Duke of Edinburgh, in which they indicated that they had been victims of discrimination within their own family and that this had forced to make the decision to leave.
