King Charles has reportedly reached an agreement with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle that will allow him to see his grandchildren, Archie and Lilibet, during their upcoming visit to the United Kingdom.

This development is significant as it could mark a step towards mending familial ties that have been strained in recent years.

According to a source cited by The Sun, the monarch is "elated" at the prospect of finally spending time with his grandchildren, Archie, 7, and Lilibet, 5, this summer.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are expected in the UK next month to commence the 2027 Invictus Games.

This report follows an earlier offer from King Charles for Meghan, 44, and Harry, 41, to stay in a royal residence during their trip.

An insider suggested Buckingham Palace as a potential accommodation, noting it is considered the “safest building in Britain.” However, there has been no official confirmation regarding their chosen place of stay.

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have not visited the UK together since September 2022, when they attended the funeral of Queen Elizabeth.

While Prince Harry has made several solo trips to his homeland, the last time the entire family — Harry, Meghan, Archie, and Lilibet — was in the UK together was for the Queen's Platinum Jubilee in June 2022.

The couple stepped back as senior members of the royal family in early 2020, choosing to relocate to Montecito, California, in pursuit of a more private life.
