After the news broke, Prince Harry swiftly returned to England. However, in a move that speaks volumes, he made a deliberate effort to steer clear of both his brother, Prince William, and his sister-in-law, Kate Middleton.
It raises the question: if their father's death can't bring them together, what will?
From OK! Magazine:
Biographer Katie Nicholl discussed Harry took action after the news was made public.
"His father personally telephoned him to inform him of his cancer diagnosis, [and] Harry jumped on the overnight flight from Los Angeles," Nicholl stated, adding Harry "came straight to Clarence House for what we understand was a brief meeting with his father."
"One could only imagine that it would have been an emotional reunion," Nicholl explained. "Because they haven't seen each other since the King's coronation, and then they didn't get to spend very much time together at all."
The writer believes Charles "desperately wants to reconcile with Harry."
"The king would have been hugely relieved and comforted by the fact that Harry flew over," Nicholl shared, noting that the moment was probably "emotional and probably quite difficult for both of them."
