The relationship between the British Royal family and Prince Harry and Meghan Markle has been deteriorating. It reached its height in 2020 when the couple stepped down from their royal duties and left the UK. This move did not go well with everyone including King Charles.
It was recently announced that the Duke of Sussex will be attending his father’s coronation ceremony next month. Now, a royal expert has stated that it was Meghan who resolved the tension between the father and the son. So let’s find out what the expert said about them.

The Relationship Between Prince Harry And King Charles
Just weeks before King Charles’ coronation, a royal expert named Robert Jobson has written a book titled ‘Our King: Charles III: The Man and the Monarch Revealed’. He wrote that Charles was “captivated” by Meghan Markle during their first meeting.
“Meghan, at first, was seen by the press as a breath of fresh air,” he wrote. “She threw herself into her new role even before they married, visiting Edinburgh, Cardiff, Belfast and London, and was greeted warmly by large enthusiastic crowds wherever she went.”
Jobson further wrote, “Charles could not have been more welcoming to his future daughter-in-law. Meghan said at the time that she was bowled over by his gentlemanly charm.”
He also added that her “warmth” for Charles resulted in a “softening of relations between father and son.” In their Netflix documentary series, Meghan talked warmly about her father-in-law.
