Over the last few years, Prince Harry's relationship with his father, King Charles, has become one of the most complicated and talked-about family issues in the British royal family. Many people think their growing distance is because Harry and Meghan stepped away from royal duties, but the real reason for their silence goes much deeper.

When Harry, 40, returned to the UK in May for the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games, a significant event, King Charles was notably missing. The two didn’t meet during this visit. The palace sources said it was due to the King’s “full schedule.”

However, insiders close to Harry feel there’s a bigger reason behind the King’s absence, as Harry wanted to discuss his years-long battle for family security, a fight he believes Charles could help with but hasn’t.

Long-standing tension between father and son.

Since Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle, stepped back from their royal roles in 2020, there has been a public rift filled with unresolved issues and occasional sharp criticisms. But, security concerns have been Harry’s most pressing worry.

Despite a hopeful meeting in February following Charles’s health issues, communication between the two has since worsened. Harry reportedly struggles to reach his father, with his calls going unanswered, including attempts to check the King’s health.

According to friends, Harry is deeply worried about his family’s safety and has sought help from his father on multiple occasions. A close source explains that Harry feels only Charles can address his security concerns, as he remains determined to protect his wife, Meghan, and their two young children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, at all costs.

Harry's fears arose from negative publicity.

In a recent documentary, Tabloids on Trial, Harry expressed his fear over negative press coverage of his family. He highlighted that even one “lone actor” could pose a real threat, which is why he has been hesitant to bring his family back to the UK. He had offered to personally pay for additional protection, but this request was declined in court.

The lack of resolution has created a bitter standoff. While the King has no governmental authority over the decision, Harry still believes Charles could influence the matter. Meanwhile, friends of Harry say the situation has reached “complete silence” from the King, who no longer engages with Harry on the topic.

Why King Charles is hesitant to help Prince Harry, according to insiders.

Insiders believe Charles fears a repeat of past events, recalling how Princess Diana's public life outshined the monarchy after her separation. Charles worried about his son leaving with Meghan, feeling it might overshadow his own work. Harry and Meghan have cited security as a primary reason for their departure, as Meghan had faced significant press negativity and a lack of support from the royal family.

Harry's life in the U.S.

Living in California has allowed Harry and Meghan to secure private protection. Since moving, they have also pursued various projects to support themselves financially, including Harry’s memoir, Spare, and the Netflix series Harry & Meghan. Despite all efforts, people close to the palace believe Harry’s public disclosures have strained trust with the royal family, particularly with Prince William, who sides with their father.

Friends of Harry believe that if his security needs were met, he would feel no need to speak out publicly or write about his experiences. They say he longs to rebuild his relationship with Charles. At the end of the day, as one friend puts it, “bloodlines can’t be undone.” Harry is only asking for security because of threats, not for material comforts.
