[Report] Prince Harry Wants To Mend Rift with Prince William, Admits He Tries To Return To UK for Queen Elizabeth's Platinum Jubilee

According to a royal expert, Prince Harry wants to hire a mediator to assist him in mending his "very, very difficult" relationship with Prince William.

After two years of squabbles over Meghan Markle's alleged treatment of staff, the couple's decision to emigrate to the US, and the Sussexes' "truth bombs" dropped in TV interviews watched by tens of millions of people around the world, Prince Harry and Prince William are said to have barely spoken and had an "incredibly strained" relationship.

Prince Harry Remains Unsure if He Will Attend Queen's Jubilee

The Duke of Sussex, 37, has made it very clear that he wants to work things right with his brother, according to Vanity Fair's Katie Nicholl. The two have had a rocky relationship in recent years, but insiders said Prince Harry wants to be "back in the fold" in time for the Jubilee, Daily Mail reported.

He is scheduled to return to the UK for the Platinum Jubilee, which will take place from June 2 to 5 and include a four-day bank holiday. Meghan Markle, 40, and their children Archie, two, and Lilibet, eight months, are not expected to accompany him. The prince is claimed to have called his father for "friendly discussions" and plans to visit the United Kingdom later this year.

Katie's recent remarks came after it was revealed that the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge were on holiday in the French Alps with their children at the same time as Prince Harry and Meghan Markle paid a peace offering to Queen Elizabeth and Prince Charles in Windsor.

Prince Harry has acknowledged that he is unsure whether he will return to the UK this summer for the Queen's Platinum Jubilee celebrations. Prince Harry sat down with NBC TV host Hoda Kotb for a candid interview on the American morning show Today.

He was asked if he planned to come to the UK with his wife Meghan Markle and children Archie and Lilibet for the Jubilee celebrations in June. "I don't know yet. There are a lot of things: security difficulties and everything else," he remarked, as per Mirror.

Duke of Sussex He is Protecting The Queen

The new disclosures follow the publication of a sneak peek of the talk last night, in which Prince Harry said he is ensuring the Queen has "the appropriate people around her" to "guard" her. That was also evident in his interview this morning, in which he expressed his pleasure at being reunited with his grandmother but reiterated that the United States was now his "home" - at least for the time being.

The prince went on to tell Hoda how the United States has become his home and how much he appreciates the community in which he now resides. Last week, Prince Harry and Meghan paid a covert visit to Windsor Castle before heading to the Invictus Games in the Netherlands.

In a heavily secured visit to Windsor Castle, they also visited Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall. However, they did not meet Prince William, who is thought to have been skiing in the French Alps with his wife KateMiddleton and their three children last week - despite being aware of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's visit.

Per The Sun, the Duke of Sussex raved over his grandmother's "special relationship" but declined to say if he would return to the UK to commemorate her 70 years on the throne.

After spending two years in the United States with Meghan Markle and their two children, the prince declined to say whether he missed his family. When questioned, he stated that he missed Prince William and Prince Charles, saying, "Of course."

Since Megxit in 2020, when he relocated to Santa Barbara, California, Prince Harry has only been to the UK three times. Prince Harry also discussed his and Meghan Markle's recent visit to the Queen in the United Kingdom, which was their first combined visit since they left the royal family.

The prince said he drank tea with the Queen and Meghan Markle, saying he made the monarch "laugh" during the visit. Prince Harry also complimented Queen Elizabeth's "sense of humor." The prince stirred outrage with his remarks, which came after he was chastised for skipping Prince Philip's memorial service last month amid a security dispute.
