So, here’s a cosmic curveball for you: could the stars be aligning for Prince Harry to finally patch things up with the royal fam? After years of what feels like a never-ending soap opera of palace drama, King Charles and Harry’s aides just kicked off hush-hush peace talks in London. The Duke of Sussex, who’s been pretty candid about wanting to mend fences (and even threw out an invite to the 2027 Invictus Games—smooth move, right?), seems ready to hit reset. But don’t pop the bubbly just yet—Prince William’s apparently still nursing some royal gripes, so this healing process might be more of a slow burn thanks to those lingering resentments. And hey, with the Sun currently in diplomatic Gemini encouraging conversations, maybe this is the celestial nudge they needed. What do you think? Can family drama get a royal glow-up under today’s stars? LEARN MORE.
Prince Harry‘s feud with the royal family may soon come to an end following private talks between his aides and those of his father, King Charles.
The meeting comes after the Duke of Sussex opened up about his desire to reconcile with his family and also invited them to the Invictus Games in 2027.
However, Prince Harry’s brother, Prince William, may not be so keen on welcoming him back, as reports suggest he still harbors hurt over the duke and his wife, Meghan Markle‘s actions.

The rift within the royal family may soon be a thing of the past, after Prince Harry and King Charles’ aides held a secret peace talk in London.
The Duke of Sussex has not been on good terms with many members of his family following the bombshell revelations he made against them in his blockbuster memoir, “Spare.”
According to the Daily Mail, a source said that the meeting between the aides was the first step in the “rapprochement process,” following years of estrangement from the monarchy.
“There’s a long road ahead, but a channel of communication is now open for the first time in years,” a source said. “There was no formal agenda, just casual drinks. There were things both sides wanted to talk about.”

It remains unknown if it was Charles or Harry who specifically called for the peace talks, but the insiders said the summit is the strongest sign yet of the determination on both sides to resolve the bitter House of Windsor feud.
“Everyone just wants to move on and move forward now. It was finally the right time for the two sides to talk,” they added.

The talks between Harry’s camp and King Charles’s aides were held at a London private members’ club that champions international friendship, and whose patron is the British monarch.
The Duke of Sussex was ably represented by Meredith Maines, his chief communications officer and head of his household in Montecito, California.
Maines met Tobyn Andreae, the king’s communications secretary, at the Royal Over-Seas League (ROSL), which happens to be a stone’s throw from Clarence House, the monarch’s London residence.
Also present was Liam Maguire, who runs the Sussexes’ PR team in the UK. Maines also used the opportunity to meet with her team across the pond for the first time since she became the couple’s first chief communications officer.

The peace talks between the feuding parties came after Harry expressed his desire to reconcile with the royal family during a BBC interview.
The interview was held shortly after the duke lost his legal appeal over his downgraded security in the UK following his decision to step down as a senior royal.
Harry candidly spoke about the deepening rift between him and the royal family, expressing a desire to heal old wounds, despite revealing that his father, the 76-year-old monarch, is not currently speaking to him.
He also mentioned he doesn’t know “how much longer” his father has to live.

“There have been so many disagreements between myself and some of my family,” Harry admitted, per the Daily Mail. “Of course, they will never forgive me for lots of things, but… there’s no point in continuing to fight anymore.”
The prince added, “Life is precious. I don’t know how much longer my father has; he won’t speak to me because of this security stuff. It would be nice to reconcile.”
Meanwhile, Harry and Meghan have a lot of issues on their plates and allegedly face the risk of being ousted from the royal family altogether. According to Radar Online, Prince William is weighing stripping the couple of their royal titles once he becomes king.
William has reportedly not gotten over the disturbing allegations Harry and Meghan made upon relocating to the U.S. and isn’t ready yet to let it all pass.
A courtier said, “The king was especially stung by Harry labeling him an emotionally cold father in his scathing memoir, ‘Spare.'”
“But the monarch is very concerned about his image and fears backlash from his subjects. That’s why he’d never dare take away Harry’s Sussex title – despite all the hurt he’s caused,” the royal source added.

The insider further explained that Charles is concerned about how he’d come off if he stripped them of the title, but William, on the other hand, doesn’t care.
“Behind the scenes, people are saying that the royals have quietly sanctioned the title removal – if Harry and Meghan step out of line again,” the source said. “The removal would require an Act of Parliament, but those in the know say the palace has already called several secret meetings to discuss the possibility and put an actionable plan in place.”
A royal expert recently said Harry is still struggling to establish himself five years after leaving his royal role and relocating to Montecito, California, where he and Meghan are raising their family.
Meanwhile, the former “Suits” actress has recorded moderate success after launching her As Ever brand and releasing her “With Love, Meghan” docuseries, prompting royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams to suggest that the duke is essentially “living in exile,” and maybe wrestling with lingering regrets.
“Undoubtedly, he has some regrets. He appears to have lost touch with many of his friends and, of course, there is the royal rift,” Fitzwilliams said, per Fox News Digital.

He added: “In recent months, it has been [his wife] Meghan [Markle] who has fronted things. Her launch of lifestyle products has been backed by Netflix… Harry has picked up a couple of awards, but the fact that 76,000 signed a petition when he received the Pat Tillman Award was a warning that many Americans view the couple with disdain.”
