Buckingham Palace Confirms King Charles III Is Alive After Russian Media Reports His Death

King Charles III will reportedly spend time with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s two kids during the family’s upcoming trip to the United Kingdom.

An insider claimed there is “an agreement” for Charles to see Prince

Archie, 7, and Princess Lilibet, 5, when Harry reunites with his dad after a years-long estrangement, the US Sun reported Friday.

The outlet understands that the reigning monarch, 77, is overjoyed to be seeing the two children — whose last visit to the UK was four years ago.

Page Six confirmed earlier this week that the couple is going to bring their kids to the UK for the first time since 2022.

Our source previously told us that Harry “desperately wants” his kids to meet their grandfather.

Archie and Lilibet have not visited the UK due to security concerns,

as Harry and Markle were stripped of their security privileges in the UK upon resigning from their royal duties in 2020.

Harry has been trying to petition for the British government to provide security for him and his family while he is in the UK.

The Invictus Games founder allegedly even offered to pay for his own security, but in May 2025, he lost an appeal to be granted security.

The former actress was last in the UK for Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral in 2022. Harry, 41, has also been on the outs with his father since he and Markle, 44, aired their family’s personal matters in several interviews, as well as his 2023 tell-all memoir, “Spare.”

While Charles is allegedly willing to make amends with Harry, it is unknown if his estranged brother, Prince William, is open to burying the hatchet.

Markle, for her part, has not traveled to the UK since she and Harry returned from California to attend the late Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral on Sept. 8, 2022.

Page Six has reached out to Buckingham Palace for comment.
