Prince Harry is said to be deeply worried about the lack of a real relationship between his children, Archie and Lilibet, and their grandfathers, particularly King Charles III.

According to a report from Closer, Harry finds the situation heartbreaking. Sources claim both Archie and Lilibet know very little about their royal grandfather, a reality that weighs heavily on him and Meghan Markle.
An insider says Harry believes his children deserve to understand where they come from and to know their family firsthand, not just through history books or headlines. The same source describes the situation as “devastating” for him, especially as opportunities for relaxed, private moments with his father are becoming increasingly rare.
Harry is reportedly concerned that any future meetings with the King would involve formalities, advisers, or legal boundaries rather than genuine family time. That fear has led to a deeper worry that Archie and Lilibet may grow up knowing their grandfather only through photographs and secondhand stories.
The family moved to the United States in 2020, shortly after Archie was born. Lilibet was later welcomed there, and since then contact with the royal family has been limited. The children have not seen King Charles for more than three years.
The last time the monarch saw them was in June 2022, during the late Queen Elizabeth’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations. Charles has met Lilibet only once and has spent time with Archie on just a handful of occasions.
For Harry, that distance is not just physical. It represents a missed chance at family connection, one he fears may never fully be recovered.
