Prince Harry and King Charles III may be heading toward a royal reconciliation.
For the first time in 19 months, the Duke of Sussex was seen arriving by car to Clarence House—the King’s London residence—for a private tea with his father before heading to another engagement in the city.
While Harry pulled into the residence around 5:20 p.m. local time on Sept. 10, Charles returned to the home just hours before.
The pair’s reunion comes nearly two months after Harry’s chief communications officer, Meredith Maines, was spotted meeting with the King’s communications secretary, Tobyn Andrae, in London.
Three months prior, Harry, 40, expressed hope that he and Charles, 76, could one day make amends following years of estrangement over his and Meghan Markle’s battle to restore security protection in the U.K.
“There have been so many disagreements, differences between me and some of my family,” Harry told BBC in May. “This current situation that has been on our ongoing for five years with regard to human life and safety is the sticking point. It is the only thing that’s left.”
