Prince Harry is reportedly planning a big surprise for his cancer-stricken father, King Charles, amid the current Andrew drama.
The Duke of Sussex is reportedly planning a quiet return to the UK this Christmas as he is determined to reconnect his children with his side of the family.
An informant said Online radars that Harry, who recently lost his full police protection case in the UK, wants to use the visit to strengthen Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet’s relationship with Charles.
Harry met Charles for tea earlier this year in their first face-to-face in almost two years, a meeting insiders described as “cold”.
However, the Duke believes that bringing Archie and Lilibet to the UK is an important step towards rebuilding trust.
“There will be private lobbying behind the scenes. He won’t give up. He wants to bring his family back more regularly,” said a friend of Harry’s.
“Harry misses sports and going to the pub with his friends,” a source said of Harry’s desire to return to royal life.
“Meghan has taken all that away from him, but he sees it as part of himself and his culture and will want to have a good drink this Christmas with friends he hasn’t seen in years.”
They added that Harry knows he “has a long way to go to rebuild trust with his father after he published his memoirs and criticized the royal family in his Netflix documentary and in his interview with Oprah Winfrey.
“But he believes taking his children to see Charles at Christmas will be a great way to start making amends, as the king has not had a relationship with that group of his grandchildren.
“He is focused on making sure his children do not lose their connection to the UK and will not let anyone stand in his way, not even his wife, no matter what the consequences for their marriage.”
