London, UK - Do Prince Harry and Meghan Markle feel pressure to reconcile their relationship with King Charles?

According to Page Six, staff working for the Sussexes recently met with employees of the king for a "secret peace summit."

Amid the 76-year-old monarch's battle with cancer, Harry and Meghan are reportedly afraid they might not have much time left with him.

Royal expert Hugo Vickers told the outlet that the 40-year-old would be "riddled with guilt" if he did not see his father in person again.

"The ball is in Harry's court. He is the one who has to apologize and beg for forgiveness, and not the other way around," Vickers said.

In May, the Duke of Sussex said that Charles was no longer speaking to him, adding, "Life is precious. I don't know how much longer my father has."

A source revealed that the monarch may be extending an olive branch, though, in the hopes of spending time with his grandchildren – six-year-old Prince Archie and four-year-old Princess Lilibet.

Royal insiders speculate that Charles could invite the family to his Balmoral estate, where he stays every August.

"It's his house he can do whatever he likes," Vickers explained. "But there's quite a lot of ground to be made up."

As for Harry's strained relationship with his brother William, the two have reportedly not spoken in years and are in no rush to mend frences.
