Ever since Prince Harry has returned to the UK, there has been no meeting between the father and son since the Highgrove reunion in July.
It was believed that the relations are finally thawing between the two, but the events that followed painted a rather different picture.
Sources have told The Daily Mail that there is “no estrangement” between the King and the Sussexes but the fact that the Sussexes are seemingly kept at an arm’s length suggests otherwise.

It was revealed that the reason why Prince Harry and Meghan would not be invited to the Christmas celebration with the royals at Sandringham due to the ongoing rift between Prince William and his brother.
Although, Palace sources have claimed that it is very possible that the King would meet his younger son before Christmas.
They said that it is “more than possible” that there will be a meeting in the timeline but it is not yet confirmed.
Moreover, it is still not the ideal ‘taking tea with Pa once a month’ that Harry would have hoped for.
But there are no hard feelings between them. Prince Harry’s close friend revealed that the Duke of Sussex will privately wish his father and the rest of the royal family members on Christmas.
It could happen via “phone call or video call”.

Meanwhile, Harry and Meghan have been “so busy” so he is “comfortable” in not attending the Sandringham get together, the friend claimed.
They also noted that Harry expects to see his father “before Christmas on a private basis”.
