Prince Harry arrived in London on Tuesday to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games, but will not be seeing his father during his visit, according to a spokesperson.
King Charles III, who recently returned to his official duties after a three-month hiatus due to cancer, is too busy to meet with his youngest son, the Duke of Sussex’s spokesperson stated.
“The duke understands his father’s commitments and various other priorities and hopes to see him soon,” the statement read.
Harry, who has a strained relationship with his family, made a quick trip to London in February after his father’s cancer diagnosis. Since stepping down from royal duties in 2020 and moving to California with his wife, Meghan, Harry has had limited interaction with his father. He has openly discussed his difficult relationship with his family in various interviews and in his memoir, “Spare.”
Following his last visit, Harry expressed hope that his father’s illness could potentially bring his family closer together.
Despite not seeing his father, Harry was in London to participate in events commemorating the Invictus Games, a tournament he founded for wounded troops and veterans.
