JOURNEY BACK: Prince Harry believes King Charles will forgive him everything if he just returns

The strained relationship between Prince Harry and the rest of the royal family continues to show no signs of improvement, despite the Duke of Sussex’s apparent belief that time would heal all wounds. According to royal insiders, Harry assumed that his actions—including the release of his tell-all memoir Spare and the explosive Oprah interview—would eventually be forgiven, leading to a reconciliation with his father, King Charles III. However, this anticipated resolution remains elusive.

Royal author Tom Quinn, known for his book Scandals of the Royal Palaces: An Intimate Memoir of Royals Behaving Badly, has shed light on Harry’s expectations. “Despite all his criticisms, Harry always assumed he would be forgiven by his father,” Quinn revealed in an interview with The Mirror. “He thought Charles would make amends for the hurt that—in Harry’s view—justified the criticisms.”

While King Charles has maintained a public silence on the matter, avoiding any retaliatory statements against his son, sources suggest that the situation behind closed doors is far more tense. The relationship between father and son remains fraught, with Charles reportedly refusing to take Harry’s calls.

Earlier this year, Harry made a rare visit to see his father after Charles disclosed his cancer diagnosis. However, the two did not meet during Harry’s subsequent trip to London to commemorate the anniversary of the Invictus Games, further fueling speculation about the depth of their estrangement.

“Despite Harry’s attacks on the royal family, his father has avoided responding by attacking his son publicly, but privately, King Charles is furious,” Quinn explained. “So much so that he is now refusing to take calls from his son.”

Amidst the ongoing tension, there is a glimmer of hope for reconciliation. Princess Beatrice, who maintains close relationships with both Harry and William, as well as with King Charles, is seen as a potential peacemaker. Royal commentator Grant Harrold, King Charles’s former royal butler, believes that Beatrice could play a crucial role in mending the fractured ties within the family.

“[Princess] Beatrice could act as a peacemaker for Harry, William, and Charles,” Harrold told Express. “She would be someone to initiate peace in the family. She’s close to both William and Harry, as well as the king—and they trust her.”

As the royal family remains divided, the possibility of Princess Beatrice stepping in to mediate offers a small but significant chance for healing. However, until that happens, the rift between Prince Harry and King Charles shows no sign of closing, leaving the future of their relationship uncertain.
