Prince Harry has arrived in the United Kingdom to participate in a particular service celebrating the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games, a project dear to his heart. Over the years, he has been a constant presence at the Games, often joined by Meghan Markle in support of the participants.

Prince Harry to Miss a Meeting with His Father

Since relocating abroad, Harry's visits to London have become infrequent. Many expected that he would seize the opportunity of his May visit to catch up with family, including his father, who has been battling cancer. Yet, a meeting between the two will not occur. The King, deemed "too busy," apparently cannot carve out time for his younger son.

This 'busyness' follows the King's recent return to his royal engagements after a period of reduced activity due to his cancer diagnosis. Amidst many responsibilities, a meeting with his elder son, William, has been arranged.

Buckingham Palace has revealed that the prince and the King will attend a special event next week, where William will be appointed head of the Army's Air Force Regiment.

A deliberate snub from the father?

The King's decision has sparked much discussion in the UK, especially since, before his step back from royal duties four years ago, Prince Harry was expected to command the same regiment with whom he served in Afghanistan.

According to the Daily Mail, as the King delegates more responsibilities to William, Harry, serving his country just a few miles from his family, seems overshadowed.

As noted by a source within the royal circle, timing is everything. They suggest that Charles's actions might be perceived as dismissive.

Did the implications of Harry's departure from royal life and its effects on his family relations come as a surprise?
