What Prince Harry and King Charles’ symbolic reunion location means for royal rift

Prince William and Prince Harry still have “no contact” despite the latter’s recent reunion with their father King Charles III at Highgrove House.

The brothers’ current relationship is “so broken,” an insider told People Tuesday.

A second source told the outlet they believed their feud “would have perhaps eased a little bit by now, to be honest.” However, “there has been no movement, especially on William’s side. There is no contact.”

Highgrove is the family home where William and Harry spent much of their childhood and lived with their mom, Princess Diana, before her tragic death.

“Diana would be devastated that it has turned out like this, particularly because [the brothers] were once so close,” royal author Simon Vigar told the People of the situation between her sons today. 

“Highgrove doesn’t have the pomp and circumstance or institutional aspects of a palace,” royal author Catherine Mayer told the outlet. “It reveals this as a family matter — a human matter.” 

In his 2023 memoir “Spare,” Harry described Highgrove as a place of “peace.”

William chose to skip the reunion at the meaningful location to attend his annual charity polo match in Windsor with his wife, Kate Middleton.

On Monday, Page Six exclusively reported that William, 44, is understanding of his dad’s reunion with his younger brother, but has no plans to reconnect with his estranged sibling.

“Prince William probably understands why his father did it, even if he wouldn’t have done it himself,” royal expert Kinsey Schofield told us.

“He can appreciate that a father living with cancer wants to see his son and grandchildren, while still believing that Harry has not earned his way back into the family’s confidence.”

Schofield continued that the future King’s “priority” is “protecting the institution he’ll one day inherit.”

On Friday, Buckingham Palace confirmed Charles and Queen Camilla hosted Harry, Meghan Markle and their children — Prince Archie, 7, and Princess Lilibet, 5.

Charles — who is currently battling cancer — hadn’t seen his grandkids in four years.

Schofield told us that even though they have reunited, she doesn’t believe it will “erase the past.”

“It doesn’t mean the Palace should forget everything that’s happened over the last six years,” she theorized. “A father can forgive. A monarch still has to protect the Crown. … One meeting is easy. Rebuilding trust is extraordinarily difficult.”

William, notably, avoided his younger brother during the UK trip, making separate public appearances just miles apart on July 7.

As we previously reported, the brothers have been estranged for years. Harry opened up about their feud in “Spare,” even recalling a physical altercation between them.

Harry and Markle, initially struggled to make their family trip to his homeland possible as they were denied taxpayer-funded security.

The couple lost security privileges in 2020 after they resigned from their royal duties.

Despite the obstacles, Page Six confirmed Thursday that the “As Ever” founder and their children would make the trip — though they were not scheduled to make any public appearances as a family.

Photos of their reunion with Charles and Queen Camilla were not made public.
