Prince Harry has loved “catching up with old friends,” his spokesperson said, after a U.K. visit that included tea with King Charles III.

Harry got around an hour with his father during a private meeting at Clarence House on Wednesday afternoon, and was late for a job promoting the Invictus Games, perhaps as a result.

A spokesperson for Prince Harry told Newsweek Thursday: “He’s obviously loved being back in the UK, catching up with old friends, colleagues and just generally being able to support the incredible work of the causes that mean so much to him.”

And it is easy to understand why. As Harry returns to America on Thursday following four days packed with visits, he has every reason to feel happy with how things went.

After all, as recently as May he said Charles was not speaking to him because of a lawsuit he filed against the British Government.

“I don’t know how long my father has—he won’t speak to me because of this security stuff,” he told the BBC.

Four months later, and they appear to be back on speaking terms with a successful meeting having taken place.

There is also no question about whether anyone leaks its existence to the media as they were preemptively camped outside with cameras, clocking Harry’s car as it drove into Clarence House.

But Harry has looked happy during engagements both before and after the meeting with the king and, as his spokesperson said, has reconnected with old friends from his projects, who welcomed him back with open arms.

One of them was Tessy Ojo, chief executive of The Diana Award, who told Newsweek: “It was amazing to have the Duke here. One of the things that we’ve been super proud of is he’s such a champion.”

Harry has been having meetings on a monthly basis over Zoom with Diana Award staff and has been to events in America but she said she was happy to have him on the ground in London.

Of course, Prince William works with The Diana Award too but Ojo warned not to expect a joint appearance by the brothers anytime soon.

“Do you know what, people are fascinated about seeing them together,” she told Newsweek. “I’ve had the pleasure of working alongside them for 25 years and for those 25 years they’ve always done things separately.

“When I first became chief executive that was one of the things they said to me, we want to have our own projects.

“The only one time we brought them together was the 20th anniversary of Princess Diana’s death and that was when we launched our Legacy Award in 2017.”
