King Charles is reportedly hoping to meet Prince Harry this week as efforts to repair their strained relationship gather pace. According to a report by The Mirror, the King has asked senior aides to continue discussions with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex in the hope of finding time for a family meeting during Harry's visit to the UK.

Despite tensions over Prince Harry's accommodation during his visit to the UK, King Charles is still widely expected to meet his son privately.

Friends of the Duke of Sussex believe efforts were made to make his UK visit difficult. But a meeting between father and son has not been ruled out
