Prince Harry is expected to travel to the U.K. for his legal battle against Associated Newspapers, but sources claimed King Charles III doesn't want to get involved in the case.
"More pertinently, royal sources acknowledge that he [King Charles] has no wish to be linked to any court proceedings, meaning that on this occasion, he would prefer to give his younger son a wide berth,"
The Telegraph reported.

Prince Harry told the
BBC that King Charles III "won't speak to me because of this security stuff," but the duo reconciled months after the explosive interview.
However, the Duke of Sussex and
Meghan Markle's two kids,
Prince Archie and
Princess Lilibet, haven't seen their grandfather since 2022.

It is believed that
Prince Harry and King Charles III aren't speaking frequently.
"It's important to note that King Charles does not regularly communicate with Harry," royal expert
Kinsey Schofield told
Fox News Digital.

"The royal family views him as untrustworthy and a liability, largely due to concerns that private conversations will quickly find their way into the press. This is especially sensitive given that the king's cancer treatment is considered a deeply private matter," Kinsey Schofield continued.
