Prince Harry wishes things were different in the relationship between his kids and their cousins.

The Invictus Games founder allegedly did not receive the news of his niece’s birthday with excitement, as he was rather upset that his kids were missing out on spending time with Prince William‘s kids.

Tension rose between Prince Harry and the rest of the royal family after he married Meghan Markle in 2018, and things have not exactly changed in the dynamics of their relationship years later.

Why Prince Harry Was Upset On Princess Charlotte’s Birthday

The Duke of Sussex is reportedly displeased with the fact that his kids, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, have not built close ties with their cousins, Prince George, Prince Louis, and Princess Charlotte. While they are having a great time in the United States, the longing for a life back home has not left the prince’s heart.

“Archie and Lili are having a lovely time in California, but Harry is very sad that they are missing out on life with the rest of their family,” a source stated. Prince Harry also feels his kids will not be a part of the extensive family network their family is enjoying, such as attending schools together and going on playdates.

Last week, the Prince and Princess of Wales shared lovely content to celebrate Charlotte’s 11th birthday, where she dressed up and posed in a field of flowers. As stated by Page Six, William and Kate also shared another image of enjoying a day out on the beach with their family pet as they thanked everyone for their kind wishes on her birthday.

Kate Middleton’s Bond With King Charles Influenced Her Relationship With Harry

Prince Harry and Kate’s friendship completely deteriorated when the former decided to bring an internal issue up in public, thus exposing the family for another round of unwarranted public attention.

The Princess of Wales became increasingly frustrated when Harry spoke publicly about Charles’ health, where he reportedly sowed seeds of doubts about his chances of a full recovery. As stated by The Blast, Harry had told the interviewer that he was unsure how long his father had left, and this hit Kate very hard.

On why she felt so attacked by that comment, a source claimed that Kate’s shared cancer battles with her father-in-law made her more sensitive to Charles’ feelings. According to the insider, “She knows better than anyone that having someone publicly imply you may be at death’s door is horribly demoralizing.”

Prince Harry’s Sister-In-Law Pitched Her Tent Behind Prince William Amid Conflict

The future king of England was not equally benevolent with his reaction to the interview, and concluded that reuniting with his brother was not in the books for him. Harry’s book “Spare” also contributed to the rage the prince felt towards his brother.

In the words of a source, William and Kate were united in their decision to shut the door once and for all when it comes to Harry. It was described as a profound decision on Kate’s part, as she had regularly been the bridge trying to mend the rift between the brothers.

As for the future of Kate and Harry’s relationship, a royal expert stated that there is no assurance that anything positive would happen in this regard in the foreseeable future. Despite the stance of William and Kate, Harry has reportedly expressed his openness to get back to default with his family and leave the past in the past.

King Charles Is Rooting For His Sons To Bury The Hatchet

As rumors have swirled that Prince Harry might start spending more time in the U.K., King Charles is reportedly keen to mend the years-long feud among the royal family. 

The king is also reported to be seeking a special opportunity to meet his grandchildren, Archie and Lilibet. However, the insiders say that Prince William is not keen on Harry’s return to the royal fold. While Charles would like to move on from Harry, William will not consider it.

Insiders also shared that there is a private feud going on in the palace, and that William has a lot of weight behind the scenes. There are also a lot of people in the Firm out there who do not consider Harry and Meghan as people Charles would want to be around, and the support rate for their return is low.

Meghan Markle Reportedly On The Plan To Achieve The Royal Family Of Her Dreams

Since embarking on their successful trip to Australia, where they were warmly received, Meghan has reportedly become convinced that they can have their cake and eat it too when it comes to retaining their royal status without the backing of the palace. 

As reported by The Blast, the outcome of the trip showed the Duchess of Sussex that they can become a self-contained royal family from their Montecito home. Meghan fully believes that she and Harry can operate like an independent royal entity, all while enjoying the visibility and privileges of being royalty, while doing everything on their own terms.

However, critics have termed Meghan’s royal aspirations as kicks from a child, which holds no weight. According to the critics, their Australia trip is nothing but a front to grab cash and strengthen their brand.

Will this be the last straw for Prince Harry to finally whip up talks with his other side of the family?
