media to mark the occasion. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex welcomed their youngest child into the world in on June 4, 2021, two years after the birth of her older brother Archie, who is now


six. In 2020, the family relocated to the US after Harry and Meghan made the decision to step back from their royal duties. And two years later, in 2022, Harry's grandmother, the


longest-serving British monarch, passed away at the age of 96, prompting him and Meghan to return to the UK to be with his family. Looking back on his children's "final visit"


to the Queen, Prince Harry suggested she was "bemused" by the youngsters, writes The Mirror. In his autobiography Spare, Harry opened up about her funeral before saying: "The


following morning, Meg and I left for America. "For days and days we couldn't stop hugging the children, couldn't let them out of our sight, though I also couldn't stop


picturing them with granny, the final visit. "Archie was making deep, chivalrous bows, his baby sister Lilibet cuddling the monarch's shins." Recounting his grandmother's


response, he said she referred to them as the "sweetest children", while "sounding bemused". "She'd expected them to be a bit more... American, I think?


Meaning, in her mind, more rambunctious," he added. "Now, while overjoyed to be home again, doing drop-offs again, reading Giraffes Can't Dance again, I couldn't stop


remembering." After she passed away, her son, Harry's dad, ascended to the throne as King Charles III, with his wife Camilla taking on the role of Queen Consort. Reports suggest


that King Charles and Queen Camilla have met Archie a handful of times but have only met Lilibet once during the Platinum Jubilee celebrations for Queen Elizabeth II in June 2022. In recent


years, Prince Harry and his family have become distant, a fact he confirmed himself in a recent interview. Speaking to the BBC, the Duke of Sussex expressed a desire for reconciliation,


stating: "There's no point continuing to fight any more, life is precious." Harry said that his father "won't speak to him" following a dispute over his


security arrangements. This year, Harry faced defeat in a legal case concerning the downgrading of his personal security level. Reflecting on the verdict, he shared: "I'm


devastated - not so much as devastated with the loss that I am about the people behind the decision, feeling as though this is okay. Is it a win for them? "I'm sure there are some


people out there, probably most likely the people that wish me harm, W.H.O. consider this a huge win." Prince Harry also mentioned that he has decided against pursuing further legal


action, as the judgement "proven that there was no way to win this through the courts". Article continues below He went on to say the decision also meant that he "can't


see a world in which I would bring my wife and children back to the UK at this point". JOIN THE DAILY RECORD WHATSAPP COMMUNITY! Get the latest news sent straight to your messages by
