Prince Harry, his wife Meghan Markle and their children Archie and Lilibet reunited with King Charles in Britain last week despite major snub from William and Kate Middleton.

The monarch spent time with Prince Harry’s family on Friday, however, Kate Middleton and William did not meet the California-based family due to their ongoing rift.

The sources have claimed that during Harry’s most recent UK visit, the Prince of Wales deliberately kept his distance and did not cross paths with him and his family.

Now, as the Duke has shared his plans with King Charles to bring his children to UK for another meeting, the royal insiders have said, “Harry knows William will react badly to the whole idea, but he simply doesn’t care what his brother thinks.”

The close insider told the New Idea, “If he wants to be nasty about it and turn it into some sort of ugly confrontation, Harry can’t stop him, but he’s not going to let William dictate the terms of when his children spend time with their grandfather.”

“As far as he’s concerned, if Charles wants him there, that’s all the encouragement he needs to keep moving forward.”

“If it sends William into a meltdown, or they end up coming to blows, so be it. He’s not going to be bullied.”
