A King's Losing Battle: Charles III Baffled by Prince Harry's Latest 'Snub' That Palace Courtiers Labeled 'Strange'

King Charles III was reportedly baffled by Prince Harry's latest 'snub' that palace courtiers found to be 'strange.'

It would seem King Charles III invited Prince Harry to stay at a royal residence after all during the Duke's May 8 trip to Britain for the 10th anniversary Invictus Games celebration.

"I don’t know what more the King could have done," a source told an outlet. "He offered Harry to stay at Buckingham Palace, but it seems even that wasn’t good enough."

"It was far from clear what the duke’s plans were," they added. "It would also have made more sense from a point of view of seeing his father, as it would be easier for the King to see his son if they were staying nearby."

In May, a spokesperson for the Duke shared: "In response to the many inquiries and continued speculation on whether or not the duke will meet with his father while in the U.K. this week, it, unfortunately, will not be possible due to His Majesty’s full program."

Radio silence has taken over all the occupied palaces and castles in the monarch's court when Harry calls.

"He gets 'unavailable right now,'" a friend of the Duke's shared. "His calls go unanswered. He has tried to reach out about the King's health, but those calls go unanswered too."

Although Harry is bogged down in a bitter feud with nearly all of his family, it is suggested the only senior royal he (at one time recently) communicated with was Charles III. The monarch even decided to meet with his youngest son back in February, one day after his cancer diagnosis was made public. Some reports suggest the pair only met for 12 minutes, and the King declined to see his rebel son again when the Duke visited Britain on May 8 for an Invictus Games event.

The fifth in line to the throne is said to be "adamant" in his determination to get in touch with his father, as he reportedly feels that both he and his family could be in danger.

"Harry is frightened and feels the only person who can do anything about it is his father," a Sussex source spilled to an outlet.

Another source came forward and stated: "Harry is determined to protect his own family at all costs."

Royal security is tied to the annual Sovereign Grant, and administered by the government. As a hereditary monarch, King Charles cannot compel the elected British government to take action solely because Harry needs something. Autocratic rule in the monarchy ended centuries ago as parliament slowly became the powerhouse, which means His Majesty can guide, warn, suggest and ask his government as opposed to issuing a royal command the electorate must follow.

These insights follow additional reports that claim Harry is allegedly using his children, Princess Lilibet and Prince Archie, as a form of "emotional blackmail" against their estranged grandfather.
