The prince, who has lived in California since 2020 with his wife Meghan Markle, flew to London in early February to visit King Charles, and within 24 hours, the monarch announced he was suffering from cancer.
“I jumped on a plane and went to see him as much as I could,” Harry told US broadcaster ABC.
Asked about the possibility of family reconciliation thanks to this new situation, the 39-year-old prince replied: “Yes, I'm sure.”
“I love my family. I'm grateful to be able to get on a plane to see them and spend time with them,” he said.
While he is now focusing on his “own family”, he said he has other trips planned that will take him “through England”. “I will see my family as much as I can,” he promised.
Her return to London has raised questions and speculation about a possible reconciliation, or at least a meeting, with her older brother William, with whom Harry's relationship has soured following his repeated public attacks against her and the royal family. But the meeting did not take place.
In his autobiography, “The Substitute”, Harry is particularly critical of his elder, whom he describes as angry and pained throughout his life as his “shadow, (his) understudy, (his) plan B”. . It also implies that William did not marry his wife Kate for love.
During his whirlwind visit to Charles' coronation in May, Prince Harry arrived alone without his wife Meghan and their children Archie and Lilibet.
