Prince Harry, King Charles invited to UK event as royal reunion teased

Prince Harry and King Charles may well be reuniting soon — as both royals received invitations to the 2027 Invictus Games.

It was revealed last month that the Duke of Sussex, 40, was gearing up to extend an invitation to his estranged father to the ceremony, which is slated to take place in Birmingham in July that year.

Helen Helliwell, the CEO of the 2027 event, has expressed hope that both Harry and the monarch, 76, will be in attendance, though teased it’s “too soon to confirm who’s going to be there.”

“We would be delighted if the duke were able to come,” she told People.

“He really brings a magical sparkle dust to his interactions, and there is a really special relationship with him and the community.”

Helliwell noted that members of the royal family have been ardent “supporters of the Armed Forces,” and have been advocates of the Invictus Games “since inception in 2014.”

“We’d be delighted if members of the royal family were able to attend and would very much welcome their presence in a couple of years’ time,” she added.

The “Spare” author is believed to have approved the royal guest list and the wording of the invitations already.

However, the royals will have a tricky decision to make.

The Games will open on July 12, 2027 and conclude on July 17 — which coincides with Queen Camilla’s 80th birthday.

Celebration planning for Her Majesty’s big day is already underway, so it’s unclear whether the royals will opt to decline Harry’s invitation.

It’s said that Harry’s invitations represent the first time he has publicly reached out to his family since the royal rift began more than five years ago.

The 2027 event will mark the first time since the Games have returned to the UK since the very beginning.

Helliwell confirmed that the event, which will host 550 athletes from 20 nations, has already secured more than $5.5 million in commercial backing.

What’s more, she revealed that new sports will be introduced, with pickleball and laser run being thrown into the mix.

“We hope that will bring a new audience,” she explained.

It remains to be seen whether Harry’s wife, Meghan Markle, and their children Archie and Lilibet will attend. Harry previously insisted this was not an option without “full police protection” — for which he lost his appeal earlier this year.

If the “Suits” alum, 43, opts not to return to her husband’s homeland, it will mark the first Invictus Games she has missed since meeting him in 2016.
