Prince Harry: Palace insider says there will be no reconciliation with King Charles after explosive interview

In the wake of Prince Harry’s explosive BBC interview where he aired his opinions on relationships with King Charles and the royal family, one palace insider has come forward to explain why there will be no reconciliation.

The public airing and aggressive nature of the revelations mentioned by the Duke of Sussex toward the British royal family has been met with wide condemnation, which continues to paint the King into a corner.

The Daily Mail is reporting that a close friend of King Charles is referencing Prince Harry’s continued attacks on the royals and the fact it is making it impossible for a reconciliation.

“It’s not that the King won’t speak to him — it’s that he can’t,” the insider told the Daily Mail.

“How can you have a private and delicate conversation when you know it is going to end up on a news special within hours?”

Palace sources are quietly speaking out about Harry’s shock BBC interview that has only driven a further divide between the King and his son after Harry lost a crucial high court case to try and have security reinstated for his family when they are in the UK..

The Prince told the BBC that he was “pretty gutted about the decision,” adding: “We thought it was going to go our way.”

“Security was used as leverage. I think what really worries me more than anything else about today’s decision ... is that it is setting the precedent that security can be used to control members of the (royal) family. And effectively what it does is imprison other members of the family from being able to choose a different life,” he said.

In one of the most unusual and confronting interviews ever conducted by a member of the royal family, Prince Harry spoke of his continued feud with family members ,including his father and brother, Prince William.

“I would love reconciliation with my family,” Harry said.

“Life is precious. I don’t know how much longer my father has.

“He won’t speak to me because of this security stuff but it would be nice to reconcile.”

Harry stepped down from royal duties in 2020 and moved to California with his US wife Meghan and their two children.

Since leaving, both he and Meghan have been highly critical of the royals in TV documentaries, an explosive interview with US chat show host Oprah Winfrey and most notably in Harry’s best-selling biography Spare.

Now the prince is barely on speaking terms with either his father or his elder brother, heir to the throne Prince William.

“Of course some members my family will never forgive me for writing a book. Of course they will never forgive me for lots of things. But you know, there is, I would love ... reconciliation with my family ... there’s no point in continuing to fight anymore,” he added.

“It would be nice to have that reconciliation part. Now, if they don’t want that, that’s entirely up to them.”

Harry was back in the UK to hear a final court ruling after he mounted a legal challenge to changes surrounding his security arrangements made by the UK government following his decision to step down from royal duties.

The Prince and his wife. Meghan Markle, had sought to overturn a decision by the Home Office that their family would not automatically receive personal police security while in the UK.

“Perhaps if he tried to earn rather than demand a reconciliation, things might go a little better for him. It’s just very tragic,” the close friend told The Times in the UK.

Speaking to the Sunday Telegraph, one insider said: “If there were anxieties about things remaining private, then Friday will not have done them the power of good.

“As for their being no contact, well, he has just proven why, yet again.”

Royal sources have been quoted as saying: “It would have been constitutionally improper for His Majesty to intervene while this matter was being considered by the Government and reviewed by the Courts.”

Royal expert Richard Fitzwilliams branded the Duke’s interview as “confusing”, as he thinks Prince Harry implied his father could “arrange” a reinstatement of security measures for the Duk’es family in his position as monarch.

“He didn’t say that exactly, because he said that his father would step aside and let the experts decide. But then, on the other hand, that implied that his father was part of the process that was against him,” he said.
