Prince Harry allegedly wrote a “deeply personal” letter to Father Charles before his return to Britain – the only way she could reach him after a “complete break in communication”.
Harry – who approached Oprah Winfrey that his father had stopped calling her – wrote the play from his California mansion before heading to Prince Philip’s grandfather’s funeral, The Mirror said.
He was “forced to write letters” due to “a complete communication failure,” a source close to Harry told the British newspaper.
The Duke of Sussex previously admitted to Gayle King that a first conversation with his father following his explosive explosion Oprah was not “productive”.
In his letter, 36-year-old Harry reaffirmed his “reasons for leaving” his life in Britain as a royal senior, while promising to “respect the institution” of the monarchy, sources told The Mirror .
After Philip’s funeral on Saturday, Harry had personal time with his father, meeting him and his brother, Prince William, at Harry’s former home in Britain’s Frogmore Cottage, numerous UK reports said.
They were originally joined by William’s wife, alleged “peacemaker” Kate Middleton, but she left after about two hours so that the brothers and their father could eliminate their differences, sources told The Sun.
“Obviously, Harry felt overwhelmed in numbers, because there are three of them and only one of them wanted so much to be on his home turf,” said a source about the meeting at Frogmore.
Princess Eugenie and her husband Jack Brooksbank – who currently live in the cottage – “bent” as the group arrived and “hit things,” a newspaper source said.
As a sign of the mistrust that Harry triggered with his TV interview, Charles, 72, and William, 38, insisted on meeting him, a source told MailOnline.
“It was important for Charles and William to be there together. It means that nothing that is talked about can be misinterpreted in the future “, a source told the press.
Another source told the media that he was only the first of one of the many “steps of the child” in the attempts at reconciliation.
