Many speculate that the Duke of Sussex is eager to bring his children back to the UK in order to strengthen their relationship with the King.
It is common knowledge that the King has had no communication with his grandchildren since the Duke and Duchess of Sussex relocated the family to the US and stepped down from their royal duties.
Lilibet has primarily resided in the United States, while five-year-old Archie was born in the United Kingdom.
The last time Lilibet saw her grandfather was supposedly during the Platinum Jubilee.
According to a source from Heat Magazine, the Duke of Sussex is determined to take his children back to the UK to visit his father, even if it’s just for a brief trip.
The insider reveals that the Duke of Sussex is longing for a family vacation to the UK so that his grandchildren can enjoy quality time with their grandfather.
He never envisioned that they would spend a significant portion of their early years so distant and disconnected from their own family, especially the King, who he believes would derive immense joy from spending more in-person time with them.
Heat Magazine reports that there seems to be no immediate resolution in sight, and the Duke of Sussex is disheartened by the infrequency of his father’s visits to see his children.
Following the announcement of the King’s cancer diagnosis in February, the Duke of Sussex made a trip to visit his father.
Allegedly, the monarch was unable to meet his youngest son during the May visit due to a packed schedule.
Despite not having seen them since the Platinum Jubilee, the insider from Heat Magazine discloses that the King regularly engages with his grandchildren through FaceTime and is now more eager than ever to connect with them.
