Prince Harry breaks his silence again to reveal an important secret related to King Charles III. A piece of news that has surely caused a great shock within the four walls of Buckingham Palace.
In his latest interview for the BBC, the Duke of Sussex has reignited the delicate situation currently being experienced within the Windsor family. So much so that, during his conversation, he admitted that he doesn't keep any kind of relationship with his father.
A distance that Prince Harry himself attributes to the legal conflict that has arisen around the safety of him, his wife, and his children in the United Kingdom.
However, this distance to which the youngest son of King Charles III has now referred is not something new. As he revealed in his autobiography Spare, for years the relationship with his father has been characterized by coldness, uncertainty, and mainly, a lack of communication.
In fact, in one of the most shocking episodes that Prince Harry captured in his memoirs published in 2023, he addresses a rumor fueled by the British press in the 90s.
In it, there was speculation about the possibility that his real father might not be King Charles, but James Hewitt, who allegedly had a relationship with his mother, Princess Diana.

However, instead of dispelling doubts, Prince Harry claims that his father never directly addressed these rumors with him: “Dad never told me anything, not a word.” “That conversation where he assures me it's not true... It never happened,” he recounts in his memoirs.
Moreover, and as if that weren't enough, the Duke of Sussex reveals that Charles III even joked about this delicate topic. “Who knows if I'm really the Prince of Wales? Who knows if I'm your real father?” recalls Meghan Markle's husband.
A joke that, as Prince Harry has assured in his book, seemed “surprisingly unfunny” to him, considering the importance and delicacy of the topic.
All these experiences reflect a father-son relationship marked by emotional ambiguity and a lack of displays of affection. In fact, long before Prince Harry and Meghan Markle left their respective roles within the Royal Family, the bond between them already showed signs of wear.
Now, in what seems to be an attempt at reconciliation, he has expressed his desire for reconciliation: “Life is precious and I don't know how much time my father has left. I would love to make things right... If they don't want it, it's entirely their business,” he stated with resignation.
