Prince Harry’s team have dismissed claims that he is attempting to create conflict between King Charles and Prince William following his recent visit to the UK.

Rumors suggested that Harry’s meeting with his father at Clarence House on September 10 was part of a strategy to drive a wedge between the monarch and his elder son. His spokesman, however, told The Sun: “Categorically not. Harry is not trying to drive a wedge between the Prince of Wales and the king.”

A source close to William also reportedly dismissed the speculation, calling it “rubbish.” Meanwhile, Charles and William have recently been spending time together at Balmoral and were also seen side by side during US President Donald Trump’s state visit to the UK earlier this month.

Inside Harry’s Meeting with King Charles

There have been reports suggesting that Harry’s team had been in contact with Buckingham Palace to discuss the possibility of him appearing alongside his father at a public event. However, officials have made it clear that a “half-in, half-out” return to royal duties is not on the table.

Earlier this year, Harry expressed his wish to mend relations with his family, though it is widely believed he has not spoken to William in quite some time.

During his meeting with Charles in London, it was confirmed that Harry presented his father with a framed photograph of his children, Archie and Lilibet. In turn, the King is said to have given Harry a birthday gift ahead of his 41st birthday on September 15.
