King Charles wants ‘reconciliation’ with Harry and Meghan: royal friend

The palace door is “always open” for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, a friend of King Charles claims.

King Charles is reportedly happy to reunite with his estranged son and his wife Meghan Markle following his coronation last Saturday.

“The opportunity that was there for Harry to sort this out with the King is gone for now,” a friend of the newly-crowned monarch told The Daily Beast recently.

“Of course, Charles would always welcome a reconciliation with Harry and Meghan, he has made that very clear,” the pal explained.

“His door is always open in that regard,” the source continued.

Contention has been running high between Markle, 41, the Duke of Sussex, 38, and the royal family since the couple made the move to California in 2020.

The rift was further deepened when Harry dropped his 400-page memoir “Spare” this past January and wrote about the death of his mother, Princess Diana, and his tension-filled relationship with his family.

The Invictus Games founder made the decision to attend Charles’ coronation on May 6 at Westminster Abbey.

However, Markle decided to stay home in the US with her two children, Archie and Lilibet.

Harry made an appearance at the lavish crowning and was demoted to sitting in the third row with his cousin Princess Eugenie and her husband, Jack Brooksbank.

Harry’s older brother Prince William, his wife, Kate Middleton and their kids, Prince Louis and Princess Charlotte were seated in the front pew of the illustrious ceremony.

Harry was also unable to don ceremonial robes unlike the Prince of Wales and wore a simple Dior suit and his medals.

He then opted to only stay in the United Kingdom for 24 hours, jetting back to Los Angeles right after the event so he wouldn’t miss his son Archie’s fourth birthday.

Before heading to his British Airways flight, the prince reportedly spent just 30 minutes at Buckingham Palace and didn’t see any members of his family.

He also dipped out of England early to skip attending the Coronation Concert and didn’t pose for the official crowning portraits taken at the palace.

Colleen Harris, Charles’ former private secretary, recently claimed that Harry would have been remorseful if he didn’t go to the ceremony.

“He would have personally regretted it if he wasn’t there to support his father,” Harris revealed to People on Wednesday.

“I am delighted that Prince Harry was there,” added Harris, a public relations officer who was the first black member of the royal household. “Speaking as a mother, [I believe] it was the right thing … and the King [was] delighted.”
