Prince Harry Says King Charles Is "Great" After Royal Reunion During 50-Minute "Private Tea" at Clarence House

Prince Harry returned to the U.K. on Sept. 8 for several official engagements and to pay tribute to his late grandmother, Queen Elizabeth, on the third anniversary of her death. It was previously reported that the Duke of Sussex would potentially be reuniting with his estranged father, King Charles, during the trip. On Sept. 10, a royal editor confirmed Prince Harry's arrival at Charles's home, suggesting that the pair might finally be repairing their relationship.

ITV News's royal editor, Chris Ship, shared footage of Prince Harry's car arriving at King Charles's London residence, Clarence House on Sept. 10. Ship's caption explained, "Prince Harry has arrived at Clarence House. Seems the meeting with his father, King Charles is ON. Harry arrived at 5:20 [p.m. BST]." Ship continued, "He has an engagement in the city this evening. So it won't be a long meeting…"

As reported by the BBC, following the "private tea," which last approximately 50 minutes, Prince Harry told reporters of Charles, "Yes, he's great."

Prince Harry previously saw his father in February 2024, after learning of Charles's cancer diagnosis. Since then, the father and son haven't spent any time together during the Duke of Sussex's U.K. trips.

Even Harry himself has referenced a possible reunion with his dad, telling the BBC, "I would love reconciliation with my family." He continued, "There's no point in continuing to fight anymore, life is precious."

In August, a royal source suggested that a "reconciliation" wasn't totally out of the question. "It's clear there is now a determination on both sides to make this happen," the source told the Mirror. "Nobody is pretending the wider family issues have been resolved, but this is about beginning with Charles and Harry."

Royal fans will, of course, be eagerly awaiting an update regarding Prince Harry and King Charles's meeting.
