King Charles could be making peace with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle by offering them his beloved Highgrove House to stay at when they visit the United Kingdom later this year.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are set to head to Birmingham, England, for a pre-Invictus Games event in July — their first joint visit in almost four years.
King Charles' Highgrove Home Will Give the Sussexes Privacy

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex moved to California in 2020.
"There's a good chance that they will stay at a royal residence during a U.K. stay that includes Invictus events if the current thaw in family relations continues," a source told Daily Mail.
The insider noted that Charles' precious country estate in Gloucestershire may be handed to them so they'll be able to maintain a certain level of privacy while they are in town.

King Charles and Prince Harry have an estranged relationship.
The monarch, 77, also has no plans to see the couple while they are in the U.K. as he will reportedly be in Scotland at the time. However, Charles also has a fear that Harry, 41, would leak private convos between the two if they were to meet up.
"It’s important to note that King Charles does not regularly communicate with Harry," royal expert Kinsey Schofield told Fox News recently.
"The royal family views him as untrustworthy and a liability, largely due to concerns that private conversations will quickly find their way into the press. This is especially sensitive given that the king’s cancer treatment is considered a deeply private matter," she went on.

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry Are Set to Visit the U.K. in July

Meghan Markle has rarely been back to the U.K. in the last six years.
Charles was diagnosed with a form of cancer in February 2024 after undergoing a prostate exam.
Meghan, 44, is set to join Harry this summer for the Invictus Games event, and they might also bring along their kids, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.
"I think she would come back with him and the children. They love to do stuff as a family whenever they can, and when they do things philanthropically, they often take the kids along privately. I can't see a reason why he'd come over with the kids without her," royal expert Tom Sykes penned in his Substack page.

Prince Harry last saw King Charles in September 2025.
Both the Suits star and the Spare author have rarely been back to England since they left the royal family in January 2020 and moved to Montecito, Calif.
Harry has returned to his homeland alone several times since he moved to the West Coast with his family. He last saw Charles for a brief summit in September 2025, where the two met for tea and exchanged pleasantries.
Meghan's last visit to the U.K. was in September 2022 to attend the funeral of the late Queen Elizabeth.
