According to former royal insider and ex-Palace photographer Ian Pelham Turner, King Charles and William have been quietly discussing what Harry’s return could look like, and those conversations appear to be moving faster than before, as per a report by The Express.
“My feeling at the moment is because of Charles’s cancer diagnosis that all these negotiations perhaps, for example, with Harry have been accelerated,” Pelham Turner told The Mirror US. Charles, diagnosed in 2024 with an undisclosed form of cancer, continues to undergo treatment, adding urgency to decisions about the monarchy’s future structure, as per a report by The Express.

Is Prince Harry’s return being pushed forward?

Pelham Turner believes the “Bring Harry Back” effort has gained momentum in recent months. He suggests that Charles and William have already sat down to talk through possible terms, especially as the family navigates both public expectations and internal pressures.
Part of that shift, he says, is tied to Prince Andrew’s position within the family, as per a report by The Express

Does Prince Andrew’s removal change the family dynamic?

Prince Andrew was stripped of his royal titles in November, and plans have been set for him to leave Royal Lodge and move to Sandringham Estate, more than 100 miles away from the main royal base. While Charles and Queen Camilla spend considerable time in Norfolk, Andrew’s move is seen as both a logistical shift and a symbolic one, as per a report by The Express.

With Andrew stepping aside, Pelham Turner suggests the dynamic has changed significantly. “So I think why all of this has happened now is that William has been placated about Harry coming back into the fold by getting rid of Andrew,” he said. “There seems to be accelerations at the moment. One acceleration is bringing Harry back. And the second acceleration is getting rid of Andrew.”
