Royal biographer Katie Nicholl explained the significance of Harry and Charles' meeting and how their relationship could change in the next few months.

"His father personally telephoned him to inform him of his cancer diagnosis, [and] Harry jumped on the overnight flight from Los Angeles," Nicholl told an outlet, adding Harry "came straight to Clarence House for what we understand was a brief meeting with his father."

"One could only imagine that it would have been an emotional reunion," Nicholl said. "Because they haven't seen each other since the King's coronation, and then they didn't get to spend very much time together at all."

The royal editor believes Charles "desperately wants to reconcile with Harry" after years of the Duke of Sussex being on the outskirts of the monarchy.

"The king would have been hugely relieved and comforted by the fact that Harry flew over," Nicholl shared, explaining that the appointment was probably "emotional and probably quite difficult for both of them."

Charles chose to contact Harry before notifying the public about his condition.

"I certainly think we're seeing a real thawing in the relations between Charles and his son," she added. "I know, for Charles, the door has always been left open regardless of some of the things Harry has written... I was told by a source very close to the king that whatever Harry has said or done, he loves his son."

"He wants to repair that relationship and indeed have a relationship with his daughter-in-law and his grandchildren," Nicholl said.

The source spoke to OK! U.K.
