Prince Harry’s kids may reportedly share a rare public moment with King Charles during their UK trip. The “money shot” would mark the first time the Sussex kids are photographed with their grandfather. Archie, 6, and Lilibet, 4, have spent most of their lives in California after the Prince and Meghan Markle stepped down as senior working royals on March 31, 2020.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s kids could secure a photo with King Charles during UK trip
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s children may finally step in front of the cameras with their grandfather during their upcoming UK visit. If true, the meeting would be the first time King Charles sees his grandchildren in person. It would be their first reunion since the 2022 trip to Britain for Queen Elizabeth II’s Platinum Jubilee celebration.
No known photo shows the 77-year-old king with both Sussex grandchildren. The only image released was in 2019. It showed newborn Archie meeting him and the late Queen shortly after his birth. Another photo from Archie’s 2019 christening includes Queen Camilla alongside Kate Middleton and Prince William.
Meanwhile, Lilibet and her grandfather have only met once, in 2022. A photograph of them together has never been made public. Rumors now suggest the King may do more than meet his grandchildren. He might agree to pose for a photo with them, and that image could be released publicly, per Parade.
A photo like this would carry real weight considering Archie and Lilibet are 6th and 7th in line to the throne. However, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle may choose not to release it. They routinely keep their kids’ faces out of photos shared online.
Updates on Prince Harry bringing his family to the UK have refocused attention on the brothers’ frayed relationship. According to a source, the news that the Duke is heading to the UK makes a William-Harry reunion during the trip highly improbable. That said, the reigning monarch has reportedly offered the Sussexes a royal residence for UK trips as an “olive branch”.
