Prince Harry 'disappoints' King Charles in 2023 over Lilibet, Archie: 'Very sad'

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle seemingly disappointed Britain’s King Charles in 2023 as the monarch did not see his grandchildren Archie or Lilibet throughout the year despite the Duke’s emotional plea over Frogmore Cottage.

King Charles has hardly seen Archie and Lilibet since Meghan and Harry stepped down as senior royals and moved to the US in 2020.

According to the GB News, royal expert Michael Cole has labelled the lack of time King Charles gets to spend with Archie and Lilibet as "very sad".

Cole said: "When the King asked Prince Harry and his wife to vacate Frogmore Cottage, Harry said 'doesn't the King want to see his grandchildren'.

"Well, the fact is he is not seeing his grandchildren.

"He has hardly seen Prince Archie and I am not sure he has even since Princess Lilibet more than once. It is a very sad state of affairs."
