Prince Harry reportedly hoped to reconnect with his father during King Charles III‘s recent visit to the United States, but insiders claim Queen Camilla became another obstacle. According to sources close to the Royal Family, Harry felt disappointed after learning there would be no opportunity to meet privately with the king during his four-day U.S. trip, which included events in Washington, New York, and Virginia tied to the upcoming 250th anniversary of American independence.
Queen Camilla ‘hates’ Meghan Markle and Prince Harry for ‘cashing in on royal titles’ per source
Speaking about Prince Harry’s wish to be connected with his father, one source claimed to RadarOnline, “Harry understands that Charles’ trip was scheduled way in advance… But he’s still extremely disappointed he couldn’t have been squeezed in somehow. It would’ve meant the world to him.”
During the visit, King Charles and Queen Camilla attended a packed schedule of diplomatic and ceremonial engagements. This included a state dinner with President Donald Trump, meetings with families affected by the September 11 attacks, and appearances tied to cultural and charitable causes.
Sources claimed Camilla remained strongly opposed to facilitating any reconciliation meeting between father and son, largely because of the strain created by Harry and Meghan Markle since stepping away from royal duties in 2020. “She thinks Harry has caused untold trouble for his father and the royal family,” one insider alleged. “She has no interest in patching things up.”
According to reports, one of the biggest sources of tension inside royal circles continues to be Harry and Markle’s commercial ventures tied to their royal profile. After leaving life as senior working royals, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex relocated to California, where they launched media projects, signed high-profile entertainment deals, and released Harry’s memoir “Spare.”
Insiders claim Camilla remains frustrated by what she reportedly sees as the continued use of royal status in the couple’s public and business ventures. “Camilla hates that Harry and Meghan are still shamelessly cashing in on their royal titles,” the source concluded.
