Prince Harry and King Charles' feud explained

Prince Harry has offered a “significant” olive branch to the Royal Family in a bid to reduce further tensions with his father. An inside source revealed that Harry has “shifted to a new way of thinking” after their aides met in London. The peace offering includes the Duke of Sussex sharing his official diary engagements to avoid the clashing of dates with the Royal Family.

Earlier this month, Harry’s trip to Angola where he retracted Princess Diana’s footsteps through a minefield came at the same time as Queen Camilla’s 78th birthday portrait.

“Before that meeting between their aides in London, conflicts of interest or clashes of publicity were relished and even perhaps encouraged by the Sussexes,” the insider told The Mail On Sunday. “Now, Harry has shifted into a new way of thinking. The tone is now all about ‘deconflicting’ with his family.”

The source added: “That’s why his household agreed to draw up a ‘grid’ of his activities and share them with Buckingham Palace, and by extension with Kensington Palace. Harry still doesn’t like being controlled by the Royal machinery, and that won’t change. However, if the Royal Family have full sight of his movements they can at least plan accordingly. It’s a significant gesture.”

Royal expert Robert Jobson has suggested that an attempt to heal the ongoing rift between Prince Harry and the royals may be "too late" for one major reason.

The 40-year-old announced his plans to step down from royal duties alongside Meghan Markle in 2020, and a feud has festered between the two parties ever since.

Rare victory for Prince Andrew as King Charles forced into climbdown over Royal Lodge

Prince Andrew is set to be all smiles this week as it is believed he has won the Royal Lodge row. For years, the Duke of York, 65, has called the £30 million royal mansion in Windsor his home, and has not shown any signs of wanting to relocate.

This is despite the fact his brother King Charles, 76, has reportedly tried his best to get his non-working royal sibling to move to a smaller premises elsewhere to free up the royal home.

Meghan Markle 'left a trail of evidence' so royal exit would be easier

Meghan Markle has been accused of leaving a "trail of evidence" so that her royal exit would be easier. Although Meghan has faced claims of bullying from palace staff, the 43-year-old has accused staff of failing her - especially when it came to her mental health stuggles during her time in the Firm.

Speaking to Oprah Winfrey during the couple's bombshell interview in March 2021, Meghan opened up about how bad her mental state had become during her time as a working royal - even revealing that there was a period of time where she didn't want to live anymore.

Prince Harry knows there's only one way he can find purpose again - and Meghan can't help

With Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s Netflix deal reportedly toast – what will the couple do next? In the five years since quitting the royal fold, they’ve tried podcasting, documentary making, writing a memoir, and influencing, but nothing appears to have chimed with the public.

The only time people have tuned in or feigned interest is when they’ve dished the dirt on the Royal Family, with millions tuning in to watch their infamous Oprah interview, then their tell-all documentary and finally Harry’s bombshell memoir. So who really are they when they’re not throwing stones at Palace windows?

Top expert reveals the one royal Prince Harry should have turned to about being 'spare'

Prince Harry should have turned to Princess Anne with his worries about being a "spare", a royal expert has shared. The 40-year-old, who is King Charles's youngest son, has often been vocal about feeling overshadowed by his older brother - and heir to the throne - Prince William.

As well as writing a bombshell memoir, which was titled Spare, Harry previously claimed that his role as the second born son to the King was to be a back-up monarch if William was later unable to fulfil the role.

Surprising reason why late Queen would never wear 1 colour

The late Queen Elizabeth II was known for her array of bright garments, power suits and colour-coded outfits - but there was one hue that she was never spotted in for a very surprising reason.

According to Robert Hardman, a royal biographer and author of several royal titles, the late Queen - who died almost three years ago - intentionally wore eye-catching colours to stand out when she attends royal events.

Prince William tipped for 'special role' after Duke of Westminster announces birth of baby

Prince William may be up for a special new role after his close pal, the Duke of Westminster, welcomed his first child, reports have claimed.

Hugh Grosvenor, the 7th Duke of Westminster, and his wife, Olivia, welcomed a baby girl named Lady Cosima Florence Grosvenor, who was born in London on Sunday.

One of the UK's biggest landowners, he is a close friend of both the Prince of Wales and the Duke of Sussex, and godfather to Prince George and also reportedly to Prince Archie.

William acted as an usher at his wedding in Chester Cathedral in June last year, but Harry did not make the journey over from California for the service.

Now, according to reports, the heir could "soon see the honour returned" by his close pal.

Meghan Markle issued dire warning over brand's future after major shift: 'She's cooked'

EXCLUSIVE: Meghan Markle was warned by a PR expert over her next move as she made yet another change to her social media following the staff shakeup last month.

The Duchess of Sussex has had a difficult year regarding the negative press about her, as most of her business ventures have been harshly criticised by people.

Prince Harry's wife launched a new brand, a new cooking series and a new podcast show this year, however, while some fans were fond of her new projects, most of her endeavours were savaged by critics.

She also launched a new Instagram page this year and while she was very active on it up until recently, in the last few weeks there has been a change.

Last month, the Sussexes fired at least six members of their PR team and replaced them with PR agency Method Communications.

Ever since the Sussexes' staff shake-up, there has been a notable shift on Meghan's presence on social media, and now a PR expert has explained why.

King Charles ‘sceptical’ of Prince Harry’s motives after brutal Netflix axe

King Charles is "sceptical" about Prince Harry's motives behind his reconciliation efforts after the latest news of Netflix axing his and Meghan Markle's contract, a royal commentator has claimed.

The Duke of Sussex's chances of mending his rift with the Royal Family have come back into the spotlight again after nearly two weeks ago, his aides were spotted in London having a meeting with those of the King.

Meanwhile, last week, it emerged that Netflix will not be renewing its deal with the Sussexes, which was reportedly worth nearly £80 million.

Now, a royal commentator has questioned the Duke's motives behind Harry's reconciliation efforts and urged him to apologise to the royals before.

Prince Harry will 'never be forgiven' by two key royals as feud continues

Prince Harry will not be "forgiven" by two senior members of the Royal Family despite his efforts for reconciliation, a royal commentator has claimed.

The Duke of Sussex has been estranged from the Firm since 2020, when he stepped down as a senior working royal and moved to the US with his wife, Meghan Markle, where they have now settled with their two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.

Harry's tarnished relationship with his royal relatives has come back into the spotlight after some of his aides were spotted having a meeting with those of the King in London, sparking hope for a possible path to a future reconciliation.

The Duke himself declared that he wished to reconcile with this family a few months ago after he lost a High Court appeal challenge regarding his security in the UK.

But a royal expert claimed that despite his efforts, two royals will never forgive the prince for the things he has said.

After watching the nerve-wracking Women's Euro Final in Switzerland with her father, Prince William, the daddy-daughter duo issued a message of congratulations.

They wrote: "What a game! Lionesses, you are the champions of Europe and we couldn’t be prouder of the whole team. Enjoy this moment England. W & Charlotte."

Some fans may have noticed that Charlotte's name was signed off in full, rather than the normal protocol of using just initials.
