They say the Royal Family did everything they could to help the Duchess adjust to royal life, but she did not want the extra assistance.

One staffer who worked at the Palace at the time said: “It was Clive [now Sir Clive Alderton, private secretary to the King] who said that if we could get this right for Harry, we’d be creating a blueprint for future younger sons for generations.

“We seconded people from Clarence House, very expert people, to help them, but the Duchess wouldn’t trust them.

“Those two were offered considerable resource, and then later said that they had been offered no help. And that was completely wrong.”

King Charles, 75, is not against mending ties with his son Harry and Meghan despite all the criticism from the pair.

When Harry, 40, returned to the UK in May to visit his father he was offered a room at Buckingham Palace.

But he instead chose to stay in a hotel for security reasons, the member of the King’s staff said.

They said: “I’m not sure you could get anywhere more secure than the Palace.”

The Duke of Sussex embarked on a massive 10,000-mile round trip to see his father for the first time in 17 months after he was diagnosed with cancer.

He was whisked to London while Charles delayed a helicopter flight to Sandringham so they could hold their first meeting in 16 months.

Their meeting was thought to have lasted little more than half an hour, with Harry and his entourage leaving Clarence House around 45 minutes after arriving.

It was the first time he and Charles had met in private since Queen Elizabeth II died in September 2022, though they have been in telephone contact.

A royal expert has claimed that Harry is seeking redemption with his father.

Emily Andrews wrote that threw “poisonous truth bombs” at his family thinking he would have a “long time to make up with his dad”.

The royal expert pointed out that King Charles’ ongoing cancer treatment may have “changed that potential time frame” and for Harry “there can be no meaningful rehabilitation.”

The insider said that the Duke of Sussex “cashing in on his family’s secrets” in the expectation that he would be welcomed back due his father seeing him as his “darling boy”.

Harry’s Christmas plans

Prince Harry has reportedly not been invited to spend Christmas at Sandringham with the rest of the royal family.

The Duke of Sussex last spent the festive period with his family six years ago, and has only done two with wife Meghan Markle.

Typically the royal family flock to Sandringham for the Christmas period and attend church together on Christmas day.

Prince Harry and Meghan have spent a total of two Christmases together with the extended royal family for the traditional celebrations.

The first was in 2017 when they were an engaged couple, and the second was in 2018 following their royal wedding.

They spent Christmas privately in 2019 on Vancouver Island, just before they announced they were stepping down as senior royals in 2020.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have reportedly been extended an invite to spend Christmas with Harry’s uncle Charles Spencer at Althorp House in Northamptonshire.

However, they would be missing out on seeing their extended family.

A timeline of Prince Harry’s family feud

IN 2018, the Sun told how “simmering tension

The first hints of friction reportedly came after William was introduced to Meghan when she was staying at Kensington Palace.

Once she’d returned home to Canada, William and Harry sat down for a brother-to-brother chat.

He knew Harry was already head-over-heels for her but it has been claimed he advised him to take it slowly.

The younger prince reportedly didn’t take too kindly to the advice, with one royal source saying he “went mental”.

Then in June 2019 Harry and Meghan officially split off from the charity they shared with William and Kate.

The Royal Foundation will be divided between the Sussexes and Cambridges as the couples focus on their own separate charitable endeavours.

Prince William and Prince Harry first established the Royal Foundation in 2009 before Kate joined two years later shortly after their engagement was announced.

The trio would often appear together at events and the Foundation had huge successes with projects like the Invictus Games for injured veterans and the mental health Heads Together campaign.

The Royal Foundation said the decision was made following the conclusion of a review into its structure – but added both couples will continue to work together in the future.

Harry and Meg were living in close proximity to Kate and Wills within the Kensington Palace estate, but they switched to Frogmore Cottage in Windsor before baby Archie was born.

The move further increased rumours of a fallout.

Harry also hinted in his ITV documentary “Harry and Meghan, An African Journey” that he and his brother had grown apart.

In 2021, Harry and Meghan give their bombshell interview with Oprah Winfrey where Harry accused his dad of cutting him off financially.

Harry then jetted back to UK to join William in unveiling a statue to their mother Princess Diana in the grounds of Kensington Palace. But sources claimed William didn’t want to attend the memorial amid their ongoing rift.

In 2022, just before their grandmother the Queen died, sources claimed Kate acts as a “peacemaker” between the brothers.

Harry claimed his brother “knocked him to the floor” during an argument about Meghan, in his memoir.

In Spare, Harry said William branded Meghan “rude” and “difficult” during a row.

Harry alleged William “grabbed me by the collar, ripping my necklace, and … knocked me to the floor”.

He said he was left with a visible injury to his back following the argument in 2019 at Nottingham Cottage on the grounds of Kensington Palace, where he was living at the time.

In January this year, Harry flew in to be with Charles after the monarch’s shock cancer diagnosis.

Harry flew back to the US the following day – without seeing Wills.

In May he visited the UK for a three-day visit without seeing King Charles or Prince William.
