Despite his recent reunion with King Charles III in the UK, reports suggest Prince Harry will not be allowed to rejoin the monarchy in any part-time role.

A royal insider told the Daily Mail: “The King is a forgiving man but has been absolutely clear in upholding his late mother’s decision that there cannot be ‘half-in, half-out’ members of the working royal family.”

Royal Sources Reject Speculation About a New Model

The same source dismissed claims that Harry’s four-day stay in Britain hinted at a new arrangement that would allow him to take on royal duties while still living in the US with Meghan Markle and their children, Archie, 6, and Lilibet, 4.

“Whoever is behind [the Sussexes] seems to have mistaken a brief tea and a slice of cake for the Treaty of Versailles,” the insider remarked.

Another source added: “These syrupy briefings from supposed Sussex sources are precisely why the King and Royal family are so hesitant to embark on any road to rapprochement. If the intention is to encourage a rebuilding of trust and relationships, they serve the precise opposite effect.”

Charles and William at the Forefront

The insider went on to highlight the importance of the King’s relationship with Prince William, referencing former President Donald Trump’s recent UK state visit.
