Royal Expert Dishes On Prince Harry's Reunion With Queen Elizabeth

All eyes were on Prince Harry as he returned to the UK to attend the funeral of his grandfather, Prince Philip

The event marked the first time that the Duke of Sussex had reunited with the royal family following the exit of he and wife Meghan Markle's royal duties. The couple later moved to the United States with their son Archie (via Harper's Bazaar). In addition, Harry's reunion with his father Prince Charles, brother Prince William, and grandmother Queen Elizabeth came just weeks after he and Meghan's shocking tell-all interview with Oprah Winfrey, where the couple dropped bombshells about what life is really like inside the royal family (via USA Today).

Harry flew home to the UK days after Prince Philip's death. He attended his grandfather's funeral without his wife, as Meghan was advised by doctors to stay home and rest in her advanced stage of pregnancy, per People. The world watched as Harry attended the service with the family members he had opened up about during his interview. Of course, everyone behaved civil toward one another, however, one royal insider is giving some insight into Harry's private meeting with the Queen during his visit.

Here's what happened when Prince Harry reunited with his family

According to The Daily Mail, Meghan Markle's friend Omid Scobie is revealing some info about Prince Harry's time in the UK. 

Scobie claims that Harry met privately with Queen Elizabeth at least two times during his trip home. He also claims that Harry spoke to his father Prince Charles and older brother Prince William before packing his bags and heading back to California to be with Meghan Markle and Archie. 

One source told Harper's Bazaar that Harry's return to the UK was all about honoring his grandparents, and not fixing the tension in his family. The insider explained, "The love and respect he has for his grandmother will always be unwavering."

The insider also added, "This trip was to honor the life of his grandfather and support his grandmother and relatives. It was very much a family-focused period of time. Saturday broke the ice for future conversations but outstanding issues have not been addressed at any great length. The family simply put their issues to one side to focus on what mattered." Harry is expected to return to the UK the summer for the unveiling of a statue dedicated to his late mother, Princess Diana.
