A recent disclosure from a reliable source close to the royal family has shed light on the Duke of Sussex’s current challenges in coordinating a conversation with the King as Father’s Day approaches.

It has been four years since the Duke bid farewell to England, opting for the sunny skies of Montecito, California, leaving behind the dreary British weather.

Alongside the Duchess, he relinquished his role as a Senior Working Royal several months before their move across the Atlantic.

Since departing his homeland, the Duke has made only a handful of visits back to the UK, with this year seeing just two brief returns.

In February, the Duke of Sussex journeyed back to England upon learning of his father’s cancer diagnosis.

During a fleeting trip, he managed to spend approximately half an hour with his ailing father.

Subsequently, he made another trip last month for an Invictus Games event at St. Paul’s Cathedral, yet regrettably, their timetables failed to align, resulting in a missed opportunity to meet with the King.

Reports have surfaced indicating that the Duke is currently grappling with a challenging situation, as Father’s Day looms on the horizon.

Renowned royal expert and novelist, Tom Quinn, highlighted the Duke of Sussex’s distress during both the King’s birthday and Father’s Day celebrations.

In an interview with the Mirror, Quinn emphasized the scrutiny that would accompany any attempt by the Duke to reach out to his father.

Despite the strained nature of their relationship, the Duke intends to convey a heartfelt message nonetheless.

It is essential to recognize his deep affection for his father, despite his discontent over the King’s consistent support for the Prince of Wales in familial disagreements.

Acknowledging the complexities of their dynamic, Harry has made efforts to arrange a call with his father previously, only to encounter resistance from his father, who is reportedly being influenced by Camilla to avoid any actions that might upset the King.
