We can hope for a reconciliation between Prince Harry and King Charles in the near future. As we know, King Charles has cancer confirmed, and his health struggles were confirmed after his hospital stay earlier this year. Although there has been no update on his cancer type or if it’s curable, many people believe there’s not much doctors can do at this point. Prince Harry has not been on great terms with the royals.
Despite this, King Charles wants to reconnect with the Sussex family. He wishes for Harry, Meghan, and the two kids to attend the funeral. He hopes his two grandchildren, Prince Archie, and Princess Lilibet, will be involved in the funeral. Both Meghan and Harry will have prominent roles at the funeral. A source tells Harry that he will walk alongside his brother William. This will be a part of formal processions.
Other provisions include giving a prominent role to the grandkids at the service at Westminster Abbey. Besides, there will be arrangements at the St. George’s Chapel in Windsor. The final arrangements will depend on who’s attending out of the four members of the Sussex family. King Charles will be opting for a modern funeral that’s also eco-conscious.
I can’t with these people 🙄
King Charles refuses to see his son or his grandchildren, evicted them from their safe UK home, doesn’t care about their security but wants them – including the little ones – at his funeral ????
WTF?

Besides, the mourning period will be shorter. The arrangements and plans are being made in advance. However, we don’t have any other indication that King Charles’ health is declining. Royals usually plan events years in advance. So this could be one of them. More details and refined plans are created once the specific date is closer, including security details, military leaders, and royal aid discussions.
The king’s funeral will be on the London Bridge framework. It’s an operation name that has been applied to previous monarchs. Charles is free to make any amendments and adjustments to the ceremony. For instance, the mourning period will conclude on the day of the funeral and will not be extended for another week.
During the queen’s funeral, the period was carried on for another week after the funeral service. Since King Charles is an advocate for environmental causes, he will ensure that the service is eco-conscious wherever possible.
King Charles’ funeral will lack if #PrinceHarry and Meghan Sussex don’t attend. Only the once rejected Sussexes could make the King of England’s send-off great! The Duke & Duchess of Sussex will have the world fixated and the media in a frenzy… I wish they could deny him that. pic.twitter.com/hTYjWTX1oQ

There are several logistic elements to look at and protocols to follow, so the funeral plans aren’t exactly finalized. However, steps are being taken to prepare for different scenarios and locations. There are protocol outlines that will dictate each step. If he is away from the Palace, his coffin will bring him back with dignity.
So far, the Palace has communicated to everyone not to make speculation as plans are still not final. They will be refined as needed, depending on the situation. The basic outline may remain the same.
For now, Charles’ health is a concern. He has been receiving treatment for the past year. Many assume the cancer may be more severe than the Palace acknowledges. Maybe the rigorous treatment plan will keep him in good shape for a long time.
