The Duke of Sussex had a brief meeting with his father in February, prompted by a personal call from the monarch about his diagnosis. Despite the brevity of their encounter, Harry managed to inquire about his father's well-being. Additionally, both Harry and Meghan Markle issued a statement expressing their best wishes for Kate Middleton after her cancer announcement.
Royal expert Christopher Andersen remarked to The Daily Beast that William lacks the energy and emotional capacity to engage in a meeting with Harry, whom he feels has betrayed not only him but the entire royal family. Furthermore, royal author Tom Quinn suggested to The Mirror that if a meeting between the brothers were to occur, it would likely be carefully orchestrated to avoid any potentially uncomfortable discussions, ensuring a brief and controlled interaction.
