Britain’s Prince Harry joined his father, King Charles, for tea on Wednesday at his Clarence House home in London, the first time they have met in well over a year.
The two have been distant since Harry and his wife, Meghan, left royal life and moved to California in 2020 and then publicly aired grievances about his family.
Harry was driven through the gates of Charles’ London home following an earlier engagement at the Centre for Blast Injury Studies at Imperial College London.
The Duke of Sussex had arrived in the UK for Monday's third anniversary of the death of Queen Elizabeth and for a series of visits to charities he supports.
Buckingham Palace confirmed that Charles, 76, had a private tea at Clarence House in London with his son on Wednesday.
Harry, 40, travelled directly to an Invictus Games event in London after the meeting. Asked by a reporter about his father, he said: “Yes, he’s great, thank you.”

The last time the two met was in February 2024, when the prince flew to London after receiving news that his father had been diagnosed with cancer.
Harry spent about 45 minutes with Charles before the king flew to his Sandringham country estate to recuperate from his treatment.
Harry has also had little contact with his elder brother, Prince William, heir to the throne.
Harry was last in London in April, when the Court of Appeal rejected his bid to restore a police protection detail that was cancelled after he stopped being a working royal.
Charles was on a state visit to Italy at the time, so a meeting then was impossible.
That case was itself an impediment to improved relations because it involved Harry criticising the king’s government in the courts. But once it was over, change became possible.
Immediately after the case ended, Harry said he would “love reconciliation with my family”.
“There’s no point in continuing to fight any more,” he told the BBC on the day the court case was resolved. “Life is precious. I don’t know how much longer my father has.”
