The insider says King Charles has gone against what most people, particularly William, regarding his decision to meet Meghan and Harry.

The meeting has stirred up a ‘real hornet’s nest’, and there’s genuine concern within the Firm that this is only the beginning, the source says and adds Harry and Meghan will “eventually start pushing” for more once they get comfortable.

Meanwhile, King Charles is convinced time has changed Meghan and Harry outlook; “he really maintains that they’ve been humbled.”

“He wants to believe they understand what’s at stake now and that preserving this relationship is more important to them than scoring points or settling old grievances.”

The close confidant further said, 'That doesn’t mean he’s forgotten the past. There’s still a part of Charles that will never find it easy to move past some of the terrible things that were said and done, but he’s reached a place where he’s prepared to forgive if they prove they’ve genuinely learned from the past.”
