He is estranged not only from his brother but also from their father, who ascended to the throne following Queen Elizabeth II's death in 2022.
“The problem for the King and other members of the family is the worry that if they have a chat with Harry, it will appear in 'Spare' volume two,” said one of Charles' friends.“How do you regain the trust? I don't think Harry ever can.”

“But from the conversations I've had with the King, I would never say their relationship is irreparable,” the friend continued.“The King's capacity to forgive his son is undimmed. There are other members of the royal family who are much more weighted against Harry, that's the problem.”
One of Harry's closest friends also criticized the Duke of Sussex for turning against his family.“I can't believe he'd stoop so low. It's outrageously disloyal. Oprah, Netflix and then the book? Three strikes and you're out,” the friend said.
