Prince Harry’s Concerns for the King’s Health Unanswered, Leaving Him Feeling Isolated

Prince Harry’s attempts to maintain a relationship with his father, King Charles, appear to be faltering. Despite recent efforts to connect, the Duke of Sussex reportedly left the UK after celebrating the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games without being able to meet with his ailing father.

According to a source quoted by the Mirror, Harry had hoped for a reunion with Charles, especially given the King’s health concerns. “Harry has kept in regular contact with his father on several occasions and made no secret of his desire to see him when he can,” the source said. “He has been especially concerned about him and hopes the King will be well and able to see him as planned.”

Yet, according to a friend of Harry’s who spoke to PEOPLE magazine, Harry’s attempts to reach out have gone unanswered. “He gets ‘unavailable right now.’ His calls go unanswered,” the friend revealed, adding that even inquiries about the King’s health have been met with silence. Another friend close to the prince shared, “Harry is frightened and feels the only person who can do anything about it is his father.”

This strained communication comes after Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle, left the Royal Family in 2020, a decision that has since reshaped their lives and family dynamics. After their move to California with their son, Prince Archie, the couple has publicly voiced grievances against the Royal Family, including allegations of racism toward Archie. They later welcomed their daughter, Princess Lilibet, in California, where they now reside.

Harry’s concerns for his father’s health highlight his desire to bridge the gap that has grown over the years. Yet, his recent inability to reconnect reflects ongoing tension between him and the Royal Family. Though Harry’s efforts have reportedly been met with silence, his commitment to maintaining a relationship with his father remains apparent as he navigates his life outside the royal fold.
