Prince Harry's once-close friendship with his cousin Zara Tindall has "almost entirely evaporated," according to royal expert Duncan Larcombe. Writing in Woman magazine, Larcombe revealed that sources say the Duke of Sussex has all but lost touch with his former playmate, Princess Anne's only daughter.
Friendship Deteriorated After Meeting Meghan
Larcombe stated: "I understand they have barely spoken in the years since the prince, 41, met and married Meghan. Not only are they said to have drifted apart, but the old close friendship they once enjoyed has, I understand, almost entirely evaporated." The two have not been pictured together since the King's Coronation in 2023.
Move to US Widened the Gap
Their relationship is believed to have faded after Harry stepped down from royal duties and moved to the US with his young family in 2020. It remains unclear which family members Harry will visit during his upcoming trip to the UK next month, but he is hopeful that King Charles will meet his two youngest grandchildren, seven-year-old Prince Archie and five-year-old Princess Lilibet.
Potential Private Meeting with King Charles
Although not yet confirmed, the King could hold a private meeting with Harry and his children, which might be the first time he has seen Archie and Lilibet since 2022. Harry is said to be keen on introducing his children to his "wider family," with Daily Mail Diary Editor Richard Eden suggesting this could include his aunts, Lady Sarah McCorquodale and Lady Jane Fellowes, as well as his uncle, Charles Earl Spencer, with whom Harry reportedly stayed during a visit to the UK in 2024.
