Royal news live: King Charles ‘in discussions’ to see Archie and Lilibet as hope remains for Kate Middleton Wimbledon appearance

King Charles is reportedly “in discussions” to visit Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet in the US next month after a gap emerged in his busy schedule.

The Monarch, who has not seen Prince Harry since February, is reportedly “desperate” to see his youngest grandchildren and create memories of himself as a “friendly grandfather”.

Royal expert Tom Quinn told New Idea magazine: “He is desperate to see his them and hates the idea that Archie and Lilibet will not remember him as the warm, friendly grandfather he wants to be.”

An additional source cited by the publication claimed that the Monarch knows he has to go to “Harry and Meghan’s home turf” if he wants to see his grandchildren.

This comes as Wimbledon officials hoping the Princess of Wales could appear during the tournament after it began yesterday.

“We’re hopeful that the Princess of Wales will be able to present the trophies as the Club’s patron, but her health and recovery is the priority,” an official told Telegraph Sport.
