Prince Harry may visit the U.K. on Sept. 8 for a charity event and face a possible meeting with King Charles, but royal reporters express skepticism. The monarch is described as reluctant to be part of the public spectacle often surrounding his son. Tensions have thawed since Harry lost his lengthy and costly legal case over requests for upgraded taxpayer-funded security during U.K. visits. An informal London meeting between one of Harry's top advisers and the monarch's communications secretary reportedly set the visit in motion, but that meeting was leaked to the press, likely by Harry's team. Harry has appealed a decision downgrading his police protection amid documented threats.
Britain's Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex waves as he departs the the Royal Courts of Justice, Britain's High Court, in central London, on April 9, 2025 following the second day of his appeal hearing to over the downgrading of his personal security during visits in Britain. Prince Harry's lawyer outlined in court threats made against him, including calls for his murder, as King Charles's youngest son appealed on April 8, 2025 against an unjustified decision to restrict his police protection in the UK.
Top royal reporters are shrugging off a report that Prince Harry will finally enjoy some face time with King Charles when he visits the U.K. on Sept 8 for a charity event, saying that the monarch is reluctant to be part of the circus that his son likes to attract. The report about a possible in-person meeting comes from the British tabloid The Mirror,
The Mirror said that Harry's supposed visit with his father was set in motion last month by an informal meeting held in London held last month between one of Harry's top advisers and the monarch's communications secretary. However, that informal meeting of the advisers was not so secret because it was leaked to the press, likely by Harry and his team, as The Sun's royal editor Matt Wilkinson acknowledged in an interview on Britain's TalkTV.
