According to royal biographer

Prince Harry before her 2022 death. "The late Queen was always happy to speak with Harry, but when he asked for money, she said: 'Why don't you speak to your father?' " he wrote in the book,
The Windsor Legacy, via

While King Charles III and
Prince Harry have been at odds since the Duke of Sussex and
Meghan Markle left England in 2020, His Majesty reportedly wants to invite the couple to Balmoral in Scotland to patch things up. "This is Charles' most personal residence," the insider told
Rob Shuter's

Prince Harry reportedly wants to extend an olive branch to King Charles III by asking him to open the 2027 Invictus Games. "He [Harry] genuinely loved it [seeing Charles at Clarence House last year]. He wants to do more of that. He always loves seeing his father and would love to see him as much as possible," a source told
