Prince Harry could seize his opportunity while Queen Camilla is absent, at a moment when King Charles finds himself at his most “vulnerable”. In July, Harry, 41, his wife Meghan Markle, 45, and their children Archie, 7, and Lilibet, 5, enjoyed a clandestine reunion with the 77 year old monarch and his wife, 79, after a four-year hiatus.

The private encounter occurred at Highgrove House, Charles’ countryside retreat, according to Buckingham Palace. While Charles went to great lengths to maintain secrecy around the meeting, royal experts have persisted in analysing its intricate details.

Now, following the reunion, palace sources are questioning whether Harry might strike while the iron is hot in his quest for reconciliation with his father, as Camilla holidays and Charles relaxes at Balmoral in Scotland.

British journalist and gossip columnist Rob Shuter penned in a recent Substack post, “Harry knows his father has a soft spot for him. He also knows that when Charles is relaxed and away from the machinery of the palace, an emotional conversation can become easier.

“Harry knows exactly when his father is most vulnerable,” a palace source revealed to Shuter’s Naughty But Nice. “Camilla being away removes one of the strongest voices telling Charles to think carefully before responding.”, reports the Express.

It is not unusual for Charles and Camilla to spend time apart. Nevertheless, insiders believe that for Harry, timing is absolutely crucial.

“Harry understands his father emotionally,” the source added. “He knows Charles misses him, and he knows that underneath all the anger, the King wants his son back.”

Shuter reckons that Harry wouldn’t need to make a grand gesture and that a single phone call could “reopen a door that palace officials have worked hard to keep controlled.

“Charles can be incredibly firm as King, but Harry knows how to reach Charles as a father,” the source told Naughty But Nice. “That is the vulnerability.”
