- Prince Harry and his family met with King Charles III and Queen Camilla in the UK for the first time in four years.

Prince Harry, his wife Meghan, and their two children, Archie and Lilibet, met with King Charles III and Queen Camilla in the United Kingdom, marking the first such family reunion in four years. The gathering took place shortly after Harry arrived in the UK to begin a year-long countdown to the Invictus Games, an event he founded for wounded veterans.
Initially, Meghan and the children were not expected to join Harry, reportedly due to issues with securing police protection. Buckingham Palace has not yet commented on the matter. The Sussexes have resided in California since 2020, and their children had not seen their grandfather since 2022. This meeting comes amidst Harry's continued legal disputes with British newspapers.
Earlier in the week, Harry and other public figures lost a court case against the Daily Mail's publisher, accusing them of unlawful information gathering. He faces another court hearing later this month concerning privacy invasion claims against tabloid publishers, a legal battle that has further complicated his relationship with the royal family. These ongoing lawsuits, including one stemming from his mother Princess Diana's death, have been a significant factor in his strained ties with the monarchy since he and Meghan stepped back from royal duties in 2020.
