King Charles knows the ‘only way out of this mess’ is reconciling with Harry

Prince Harry’s Spare isn’t even officially out yet and some are calling the memoir the “biggest crisis for the monarchy” since the 1990s and Princess Diana. Of course it was Diana’s redheaded child causing all this drama. It makes me so happy to think of Diana laughing her ass off from her perch in heaven. Back down on earth, Diana’s ex-husband has also had a come to Jesus moment. Suddenly, King Charles finally understands that Prince Harry has already done lasting damage to the monarchy and the whole thing is about to cave down around all of them.

The King has never given up hope of reconciling with the Duke of Sussex, The Telegraph understands. Despite all of the recent revelations and allegations fired from California, Charles believes he will one day be reunited with his son and they will move forward, sources insist.The two sides appear to have reached a stalemate, each keen to build bridges but convinced that the ball is in the other’s court.

There is thought to have been no contact between them since the Duke’s memoir went on sale in Spain on Thursday, and other copies were leaked in New York. However, those close to the King are aware that the “only way out of this mess” is reconciliation, however difficult. It is considered the only way of avoiding “open warfare” for years to come.

“The challenge here is not to build a mountain of resentment that cannot be bypassed,” one source said.“In many ways, the Royal family is no different to any other family and it will be their normality, rather than their uniqueness, which offers their greatest chance of reconciliation. Although Harry resents the role he was dealt within the institution, it is the fact that they are father and son that will bring them back together.”

The Duke told ITV that his family had ”shown absolutely no willingness to reconcile.”

However, the source said that it was the King’s view that they would reconcile. “What father does not forgive their son?” he added.

[From The Telegraph]

LMAO: “What father does not forgive their son?” They are frantically and desperately trying to paint Harry as the prodigal son who arrives home and is welcomed back in his father’s loving arms despite the son’s transgressions. When the reality is as it has been for years: Harry left his toxic, abusive family for greener pastures and he’s setting healthy boundaries as the terms for any reconciliation. Harry says: I want accountability and an acknowledgement of my legitimate grievances. Charles says: I forgive you, let’s make peace. Charles is going to keep f–king around and Harry is going to help him find out.

    What exactly has Harry done? What does Charles think he has done? Has he lied? No. Has he said or done anything personally against Charles that were untrue or unfair?

    • Sam says:

      THE ONLY WAY OUT OF THIS IS TO ABOLISH THE MONARCHY!!!!!

      • Andy Dufresne says:

        💯

        Unfortunately, the British Media has done a great job at grooming the public to maintain tradition. Masterclass in gaslighting!

      • IForget says:

        YESSSSSSS abolish the monarchy!

        Citizens not subjects!!

      • Kel says:

        That’s not happening anytime soon. The UK public barely cares…I actually see Harry and Charles having a relationship as more of a reality than the abolishment of the monarchy.
        All the people in power fully support it and will use all the resources available to them to keep it. It’s why H&M are kept as enemies

    • usavgjoe says:

      @IFORGET
      Harry and Meghan have done nothing to the Monarchy. But their love and support for each other through thick and thin has exposed the Monarchy’s sins so to speak. HM’s popularity, ingenuity and financial independence, without the help of taxation from the British people smacks the Monarchy in the face. Their financial independence destroys one of the foundations of the “Magna Carta the Royal Charter” in which the charter promises the Royal houses of Britain and Europe monies from the taxation of their peoples. In exchange that the people be allowed to be governed by a government that represents them. Our American forefathers used the basic principles of the Magna Carta as a fundamental foundation for our Declaration of Independence and the US Constitution – minus the Royal terms of agreement in the original. HM are just two people in love, a “Romeo and Juliet” scenario if you will. One from an ancient country and Royal line, brought up to be a spare (a servant) and serve the Heir Apparent for all his days. The other a descendant of those who rebelled against that ancient nation and it’s Monarchy and bares within her the DNA the blood that became an industry that made Britain and America world powers on the back and the Institution ofSlavery. QE2 put the Monarchy above her family everytime — they were never a “normal family”.
      So, I’m not sure if H will ever have his father and brother back in his life… because their dependencies come from the support of the Monarchy. People who work for the Monarchy, along with those within government who makes laws that show favor to the Monarch are making money hand over fist. Those people are not ready to get off of those phat paydays. So if the British citizens rose up against paying taxes to the BRF, tomorrow, those phat paydays would come to a screeching halt. This is what makes HM’s freedom so dangerous to the Monarchy and its cohorts. That’s also why all the vitriolic leaks and news coverage against HM. If this were ancient times the Monarchy would have locked them away in a dungeon
      or worse. God protect HM and their family.

      • what's inside says:

        Charles owes his sons and their mother a vast apology for his shortcomings and failure as a father and a husband. Harry has nothing to apologize for to the British Royal Family. He grew up, recognized the threat to his wife and family, and protected them to the best of his ability as a real man should. Furthermore Charles and Camilla should be very afraid of what Karma has in store for them. The Golden Rule is very adept.

  2. Solidgold says:

    Blah, blah, blah. I don’t believe you Chuck.

    • Cessily says:

      Same.. they media briefing and leaks from all the “friends and unknown palace sources” are out of control. I will believe it when I actually see something being done. Starting with cleaning up the comment sections of their social media and putting out an actual statement especially about the worst things written by AL, JC, PM to reference a few.

  3. K8erade says:

    The problem is that Charles wants reconciliation on his terms. I suspect he couldn’t care less what Harry’s terms are or if he does, I doubt his reasons are genuine as I believe Harry when he says Charles has a hard time separating family from work. We know that’s impossible for William. But any reconciliation needs to come with the idea that these conflicts cost them Harry as a royal. That said, I do hope I’m wrong and that there is a way forward for Charles and Harry as father and son, instead of as monarch and prince. Whether Harry wants to believe it or not, it really is in his best interest that he has no contact with William ever again.

    • Athena says:

      Harry wants a relationship with his father and his brother not the king and the future king unfortunately those two don’t know how to be family only monarch. He said to Anderson that he has not spoken to his father or brother. It’s sad but I’m not sure a reconciliation is possible. William and Charles will have to stop briefing against Harry and Meghan, they have to go to therapy and work on themselves, that’s not going to happen.

  4. Laura D says:

    All Charles has to do is watch the docu-series or read Harry’s book for himself and not listen to the vipers who are benefiting from this rift (and that includes his wife.) Once he’s done either (or both) he should then pick up the phone and speak to his son. Goodness knows the ball is in his court now. Harry could ring him but, given his previous attempts (see Oprah interview) it’s highly unlikely Charles would take his call. The last thing Charles should be doing is leaking all this nonsense to the press. If he reads the book or watches the docu-series he would know for himself that leaking articles like this is the main reason why he remains estranged from his “Darling Boy.”

  5. Lady Esther says:

    I think that the real beef is between William and Harry, not Harry and Charles. Whatever happens between father and son, I really doubt William will change for the better short of a major personal crisis that forces him to become a different person, and given how long he’s been as he is, how severely toxic and that he’s the heir I think he will never be forced to change.

    Since William will always try to throw up obstacles to Harry reconciling with anyone in the family, really the ball IS in Charles’ court: will Charles go against William in order to reconcile with Harry? That is the only question worth answering, and only time will tell….

    • Otterton says:

      Yes!! I was about to say something similar, Charles is old and will be feeling his mortality (if he isn’t already. Plus he’s the king, he got what he wanted so I feel like he’s more inclined to throw some sort of reconciliation bone to Harry. But William however is a different story. Between his rage issues and his festering jealousy of his brother, he has far less reason to ever admit anything and make the real work happen that harry would like. And it’s his kingship that’s really in jeopardy if shit goes south, so there’s no way he’ll do what needs to be done.

      The only way I can see is if Charles cuts the purse strings and forces him to make some sort of statement for the good of the family, but now that he’s Wales he has his own income, so that probably won’t work either. Maybe someone can get it through his think skull that this looks super bad for the precious Firm, but that won’t happen either.

      So yeah, I can see Charles doing something that might be enough for Harry, but William is a whole other kettle of jealous and resentful fish.

    • TheOriginalMia says:

      Agreed. Charles & Harry can probably reconcile, if Charles acknowledges what he & Camilla did or didn’t do to support Harry & Meghan. William & Harry will probably never reconcile because William is an uncontrolled rageaholic and narcissist, who is only growing in power due to proximity to the throne.

  6. H says:

    When you have toxic relatives, you have to set very firm boundaries and it seems Harry has done the work in therapy and is doing that. I had to do that within my own family, which means I don’t talk to a sibling. I have no contact with them and it sounds like Harry should do that with William. Whether or not he can reconcile with Charles, is totally up to CHARLES, not Harry.

    That whole family makes my dysfunctional family look like a picnic. Poor Harry…so happy they got out before that institution could damage Lili and Archie.

    • K8erade says:

      I think you bring up a solid point @H and I think the future of “the institution” hinges on keeping William happy and in the line of succession. I also think it depends upon stories like Harry’s not coming out.

      The reality is, Catherine Mayer is maybe a bit dramatic but she isn’t wrong. We all knew when QEII went away that there would be questions about the continuing viability of the British Monarchy. The book really could not have come out at a worse time for everyone. Why would anyone in the UK or the commonwealth want such a dysfunctional family with two very questionable characters as Head of State?

  7. K8erade says:

    Delete.

  8. Veda says:

    Any reconciliation should be with a clear boundary. The resolution should mean Harry gets a father, not a hook back into royal duties. Chucky is going to be around for 10 yrs-15 tops. After that will be the reign of Baldemort the Incandescent and who knows how his rage will manifest. Harry should not give up his new career for a royal role ever.

  9. Amy Bee says:

    Harry says he wants reconcilation but there must be accountability and he knows that won’t come. Furthermore, what’s not being said that is Charles will welcome Harry but not Meghan.

  10. Polo says:

    Yeah I def don’t believe this lol.
    Didn’t he say something similar before and then see what happened at the Queens funeral.
    I don’t believe they really feel the damage yet if all they are looking at is British media.. for Harry’s sake I hope he does get his father back with all his request for accountability but I’m not hopeful based on the last 6 years and what happened with Diana.
    Also what happened to those stories exchanging Christmas gifts when Harry hasn’t even spoken to William in ages? Unless Kate spoke to Meghan? But I doubt they.

  11. GuestWho says:

    “It is considered the only way of avoiding “open warfare” for years to come.”

    I mean, even without reconciliation, they could STFU and stop leaking about the Sussexes. That would stop the open warfare.

  12. Becks1 says:

    Charles wants reconciliation and Harry wants reconciliation so it seems like they should be able to meet halfway…..EXCEPT that Harry has said there can be no true reconciliation without accountability.

    I know some people are mad that Harry even said the line about wanting reconciliation, but the thing is, he knows that accountability will never come. So he may want it, but he’s also being realistic here.

    I think most people would prefer to have happy, secure, non-toxic family members and healthy, normal, mature relationships with those family members. but when you don’t have the former, you can’t have the latter and many people choose what is best for their own mental and emotional health and cut ties. I think Harry may still be hoping that he is able to have those non-toxic family members and then have that healthy etc relationship, but I do think he’s more realistic about the chances of that then he’s saying in interviews.

  13. Milo's Mom says:

    Charles will ‘reconcile’ with Harry in the public eye if that’s what he must do, but guaranteed behind the scenes it will be a different story. Harry said that the family are obsessed with appearances and as long as Charles appears to be willing to forgive, then he feels his job is done. Which is exactly how the papers are reporting it. He’ll never change.

    • HarryforLife says:

      @Milo’s Mom: THIS. The gaslighting of a father who has wronged his son, offering HIS forgiveness… is just baffling and so representative of everything that’s wrong with this institution. DARVO to Harry and mysogynoir to Meg who is not even acknowledged as a human part of all this.

      Our own father did this to our mother, cheated for decades, eventually partnered with his “person” and then emotionally blackmailed me and my siblings to accept this human as if revisionist history could just erase what happened.

      Up-Chuck has sooooo much to atone for, least of which was his implicit consent in what happened to Harry and Meg… let’s start with the way he treated Diana … likely in front of his children.

  14. Eurydice says:

    This is so interesting. The RF use the press for their own advantage and have forgotten that Harry was an insider who knows how the system works. Just because Harry won’t speak to the tabloids doesn’t mean he doesn’t have media contacts of his own – contacts just as powerful as the British tabloids.

    And the shots against Camilla, who already has two strikes against her right out of the gate – yes Charles, maybe you should reconcile with Harry.

  15. ThatsNotOkay says:

    Charles needs to make a secret trip to Montecito, speak in person without courtiers knowing it happened, let alone the content, and have no leaks/briefing occur. That will show he gets it. Otherwise, fuggetaboutit.

  16. JMoney says:

    My impression is Charles wants a reconciliation but is frightened by Billy’s and Camilla’s reactions. Camilla is the one who wears the pants in that relationship and Charles puts her above all else b/c like in Billy’s scenario, who on earth would want this job? Plus Camilla is prob one of his oldest friends. He’s also terrified of his eldest son known for his rage issues and is not afraid to use violence. Moreover he knows the tabloids wanted Billy to take the kingship over him so I think he’s in a lose-lose scenario and he knows it.

    • Concern Fae says:

      Yeah, the way the monarchy ends is William pushes Charles out, William goes all in on helping the Tories keep power at some critical juncture. The Tories eventually fall and the monarchy goes with them.

      Not saying this will happen, but through the fact that the tabloids control them and the tabloids are all in on Tory rule, when the tide shifts against the current fascist trends, a lot may be swept out.

  17. Saucy&Sassy says:

    I saw a clip of Harry in (I think) the ITV interview. He was asked if he and Meghan had made mistakes and Harry immediately yes. He said he has asked several times of his family if they would explain what the issues are, because he & Meghan are willing to apologize. No one will ever give him any explanation/details. He also said that he has talked with the family several times.

    I understand where he is coming from. I just don’t think that Charles and William have any self-awareness to be able to sit down for a genuine conversation with Harry. I think reconciliation is doomed to failure. Harry still has hope, but I doubt that he realistically believes this will happen.

    I’ve wondered if Harry is trying to give his family a way to get out from under the media’s thumb. They could do what he is doing. Tell the truth and take the power away from the media. Sure, they’ll still write crap, but none of it will be leaked from any of the family. I just don’t think this is ever going to happen. Charles and William are committed to their position of being right all of the time.

  18. Kara C says:

    There will never be any reconciliation. Charles doesn’t care about Harry enough to make the necessary steps towards it. He simply doesn’t.

    That’s not to say that he doesn’t have any love for Harry. I think he does; I think he prefers him to William. But he doesn’t love Harry as much as he thinks he loves Camilla, and he certainly doesn’t love Harry as much as he loves himself.

    This will be one of those things that Charles has a lot of self-pity about, though. You can bet that he’ll spend his remaining years on this planet whining and moaning about not having a relationship with his son and grandchildren, and he’ll blame it on all on Meghan and on the Spencer traits Harry inherited from Diana.

  19. diANNa says:

    Harry (and Meghan) have strategized this truth-telling campaign so beautifully! If the BM and the BRF continue their toxic coverage then those actions will now be seen globally through a different filter because we now have Harry’s story in his own words.

    KC is also boxed in. I was surprised to see this article about his recognition of the need for reconciliation with Harry because of Harry’s statements about Camilla, but it would seem that H has created enough pressure that Charles must publicly make nice.

    Cannot imagine what Camilla’s game plan will be from here on!

    • TheVolvesSeidr says:

      I would think Camilla should know to keep her jowls shut from now on, but I doubt that she will.

  20. j.ferber says:

    Charles is a small, petty man with the soul of an alley cat. He is not a big enough man to reconcile with his own son. So selfish. So small.

  21. Blue Nails Betty says:

    These “sources” and their made up garbage. Ugh.

    Charles doesn’t want a reconciliation, he wants the subjugation of Harry. Charles isn’t sad, he’s annoyed at the inconvenience of Harry having normal, human emotions.

    Charles won’t lift one finger to acknowledge any wrongdoing of himself or Camilla. Charles won’t lift one finger to genuinely apologize to Harry and Meghan. Most importantly, Charles will never ever choose Harry over William.

    These articles trying to paint Charles as a normal dad with normal emotions who misses his son and wants to “reconcile” with that son are just more lies from BP.

  22. Puppy1 says:

    Ummm

    “What father does not forgive their son?”

    A father who cuts off security for that son & his family.

  23. Christine says:

    “The challenge here is not to build a mountain of resentment that cannot be bypassed,” one source said.“In many ways, the Royal family is no different to any other family and it will be their normality, rather than their uniqueness, which offers their greatest chance of reconciliation.”

    J.F.C.

    Apparently, these assholes are in the business of a word salad, that means nothing of substance. Again.

    The mountain exists, and none of you have even the slightest clue that you aren’t able to walk.

    Carry on, England, your overlord’s are firmly in charge.

    My husband who left me 2 years ago came back to me after some spiritual cleansing and… he changed! he loves me again, like the first day! Thank to this wonderful Man Dr Robinson, I am glad for what you have done for me…
