'Now Is Not the Time': Prince Harry Gives Blunt and Sad Reason Why He Will Not Meet With Prince William on May 8
Prince Harry will reportedly visit his father, King Charles III, during his trip to Britain on Wednesday, May 8, but a reunion with Prince William "is not happening."
"Their relationship remains extremely fractured," an anonymous source spilled. "Harry has privately expressed a wish to sit down with his brother, but now is not the time."
On the flip side, the insider added: "Harry has kept in regular contact with his father on several occasions and made no secret of his desire to see him when he can. He has been especially concerned about him and hopes the King will be well and able to see him as planned."
Although King Charles reportedly has a busy diary of royal duties next week, it is revealed that he will make time, much as he did on February 6, to fit his youngest son in. The pair met for what some reports claimed was only 45 minutes before the fiery-haired prince flew straight back to Montecito. In what has become a trend in the last two years, Meghan stayed behind in California and once again refused to set foot in Britain.
This insight comes amid reports that suggest the prince is reportedly on edge about his upcoming spring trip to Britain due to a possible "serious security risk."
An anonymous source shared: "The prince is expected to return to the U.K. in May; however, Harry’s team wanted the exact date of the appearance to be kept confidential for safety reasons."
The source claimed that Harry has "anxiety" about the trip — which involves a 10th-anniversary celebration for the Invictus Games at St Paul's Cathedral — due to "regretful" sensitive information he shared in his memoir, Spare. The Duke of Sussex wrote that he killed some 25 Taliban fighters during his tour of duty in Afghanistan during the late 2000s and early 2010s. Numerous royal analysts observed that the fiery-haired prince wrote about the lives he took in a "boastful manner."

Many reports during the first quarter of 2023, following the memoir's January release, shared how the militant organization Al-Qaeda ordered the death of the Duke after the book's Taliban extract made headlines.
The source added: "That's why his team was so adamant about keeping his whereabouts on a need-to-know basis. Whenever he's appeared at events in the U.K. in the last few years, there have been last-minute announcements due to this very reason."
"The fact that St Paul’s has published the exact time and date of an event he is due to attend on their official website weeks in advance is seen as a serious security risk," the insider observed.
