Charles and Prince Harry had their first in-person meeting in 19 months amid fears for the king’s health. MEGA<\/p>\n
Prince Harry<\/a>‘s long-awaited reunion<\/a> with King Charles III<\/a> was more than just a heartfelt tea between father and son, as the “dying” monarch is concerned about what is going to happen with his two sons once he’s gone, RadarOnline.com<\/a> can reveal.<\/p>\n Harry, 40, saw his ailing dad, 76, for the first time in 19 months, during his visit to London, as questions swirl about Charles’ actual condition as he continues to battle cancer<\/a>. <\/p>\n King’s Health Worsening “The King\u2019s health is far worse than the Palace lets on,” one royal claimed to Hollywood insider Rob Shuter<\/a>, who wrote about it on his Substack<\/a> on Friday, September 12.<\/p>\n “That\u2019s why Harry was summoned. This isn\u2019t about reconciliation. It\u2019s about succession,” the spy added.<\/p>\n Charles announced in February 2024 that he had been diagnosed with cancer after undergoing a procedure for an enlarged prostate. Buckingham Palace has not revealed what form of the disease the king is battling, as he still undergoes regular treatments. <\/p>\n Power Shift ‘Already Happening’ Another palace source claimed that \u201cIt was a mistake” for Charles to reveal his condition so quickly and publicly. <\/p>\n His mother, the late Queen Elizabeth II<\/a>, privately battled bone cancer until her September 2022 death<\/a> at the age of 96.<\/p>\n “Once people know a monarch is dying, the power starts shifting \u2013 and that\u2019s already happening,” the insider sighed about the situation.<\/p>\n Charles’ eldest son, Prince William<\/a>, will ascend to the throne upon his father’s passing. The three children he shares with his wife, Kate Middleton<\/a>, are next in line to the throne, while Harry remains fifth as the monarch’s younger son.<\/p>\n King’s Cancer Update Charles made a rare comment about his condition<\/a> shortly before Harry’s visit, which he shared with a fellow cancer patient during a visit to Birmingham’s Midland Metropolitan University Hospital on September 3. It was the monarch’s first engagement of the fall after his summer break at Balmoral<\/a>. <\/p>\n “I’m not too bad, thank you,” the king responded when asked how he was holding up. <\/p>\n Charles was initially supposed to visit in March, but was forced to postpone the trip after suffering temporary side effects during his cancer treatment that landed him in the hospital. <\/p>\n While Buckingham Palace didn’t go into detail about precisely what sidelined the king at the time, a spokesperson called it “a most minor bump in a road that is very much heading in the right direction.”<\/p>\n Harry Getting Phased Out? Charles’ meeting with Harry following the wayward royal’s treatment of his family since stepping down and moving to his wife, Meghan Markle<\/a>‘s, native California in 2020, shows how much the king is willing to put aside differences<\/a>. <\/p>\n Harry and Markle, 44, trashed the royal family<\/a> in bombshell interviews, a Netflix<\/a> docuseries, and the prince’s 2023 memoir, Spare<\/a>. But Charles is a more forgiving man. <\/p>\n However, Harry’s brother William, 43, is not. The siblings remain deeply estranged and made no effort to reconnect during Harry’s four-day visit to the U.K. this week. <\/p>\n “William feels the monarchy has to move forward with a smaller, tighter unit. He believes that means phasing out Harry and Meghan completely and stripping away their last traces of royal privilege, including their HRH titles and their children’s titles,” spilled a source. <\/p>\nThe king has not disclosed what type of cancer he is battling.
