Senior representatives of King Charles and Prince Harry met discreetly at a private club in London last week for what insiders describe as a 'secret peace summit', marking the first substantial attempt in years to open communication and rebuild strained family ties.

There was no formal agenda, but sources say the meeting, attended by King Charles’s communications secretary Tobyn Andreae and Prince Harry’s chief communications officer Meredith Maines, alongside PR head Liam Maguire, laid the groundwork for dialogue and a possible rapprochement.
