GB News: Presenter asks if Harry and King Charles are too busy

Prince Harry will not have received a "warm reception" from the Royal Family after returning to the UK for a High Court battle, one royal author has said. The Duke of Sussex, who has not confirmed if he will be attending King Charles's Coronation in May, is facing mounting criticism after his attacks on family members. Royal author Christopher Andersen claimed Charles is "still furious" with his son for the bombshell accusations made in his memoir, Spare.

He told Fox News: "Even if Harry did wish to reconcile ahead of the coronation, it's highly doubtful he'd get a warm reception.

"William appears to have thrown up his hands in disgust. Charles III is still furious over Harry’s devastating portrayal of his wife, Camilla, as a villainous schemer in his bombshell memoir."

Royal expert Richard Fitzwilliams added: "Harry isn’t expected to see any of his family.

"The rift between the Sussexes and the royal family runs deep.

"The king is not in London and there are no plans for a meeting. William and Kate are away with their children for the Easter holidays."

The King was due to be away on Monday on the first official state visit of his reign, but the trip to France was cancelled due to rioting over pension reforms, meaning Charles is now in the UK at the same time as Harry for the first time in six months.

But Buckingham Palace said the King was not in Windsor or London and would be leaving for a state visit to Germany on Wednesday morning.

The Prince and Princess of Wales and their children Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis are not currently in Windsor because of the youngsters' school Easter holidays.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have been asked to vacate their UK home Frogmore Cottage on the Windsor estate, in a move sanctioned by the King, meaning Harry could spend some of his time packing up any remaining possessions.

The duke is also taking legal action against the Home Office over security arrangements when he is in the UK, raising questions about his own security provisions during this visit.

Palace staff have reportedly been told to factor the Sussexes into the arrangements for the Coronation.

The couple, who have begun using titles for their children Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, have not said if they will attend the May 6 ceremony, which falls on Archie's fourth birthday.
