Prince Harry has given a rare update on his father, King Charles III, after the pair reunited in London this week — their first face-to-face meeting in more than a year.

The father and son last saw each other in February 2023, when Harry rushed from California to the UK following Charles’s cancer diagnosis. Nineteen months later, on Tuesday (10 September), they came together again at Clarence House.

A 54-minute private meeting

The reunion, which had been widely anticipated by royal watchers, reportedly lasted 54 minutes. It came just a few months after Harry expressed hope of reconciling with his family during an interview in May.

Shortly after leaving Clarence House, Harry attended an Invictus Games reception at The Gherkin, where he mingled with corporate sponsors and government ministers. When asked by a reporter how the King was doing, Harry kept his response brief but positive: “Yes, he’s great, thank you.”
