King Charles reportedly ‘did not appreciate’ his son Prince Harry’s TV interview and wants privacy in the future, a royal expert has claimed. Earlier this year, Prince Harry opened up about his family and career.
He gave an unexpected interview with Good Morning America in February while in Canada for the One Year To Go celebrations of the Invictus Games 2025. The prince even spoke about his dad’s cancer diagnosis.
Discussing how he flew to the UK to see the monarch after his cancer news was announced, Prince Harry said: “I love my family. The fact I was able to get on a plane and go and see him and spend anytime with him? I’m grateful to that.”

Now an expert has said it is likely the King did not appreciate his son’s interview, Mirror reports. Royal expert and commentator Richard Fitzwilliams said it is ‘probable the King did not appreciate Harry’s interview on Good Morning America, after they met in February, when he learnt of his father’s diagnosis and when he talked of family unity’.
He added: “If Harry would come to Britain privately, arranging a meeting beforehand, I am sure his father would see him.” Mr Fitzwilliam’s comments came after the Duke of Sussex flew back to the UK last week for a brief trip.
Rumours had circulated that he might meet King Charles. But a spokesperson for the Duke confirmed: “It unfortunately will not be possible due to His Majesty’s full programme.
“The Duke of course is understanding of his father’s diary of commitments and various other priorities and hopes to see him soon.” Mr Fitzwilliams said ‘the depth of the rift with the Royal Family has, if anything, deepened after Harry’s recent visit’.
He went on to touch on the ‘utterly bizarre subsequent controversy over whether his father was too busy to meet him which is extremely unhelpful as he needs to project a positive image’. Offering advice on how the Sussexes can ‘thrive’ going forward, the royal expert said: “If they are to thrive and not just survive they must avoid offending the Royal Family, their attacks have cost both them and the royals popularity and made them appear extremely destructive and also hypocritical over the issue of privacy.”
