Prince Harry has seemingly snubbed an invitation to his father King Charles III's 75th birthday party, according to new reports, with this marking the second snub in a matter of months.

The Duke of Sussex, who resides in California with his wife Meghan Markle and their two children Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, is said to have been invited to a birthday bash for his dad at Clarence House. The party is due to take place next week.

But amid rumours of a rift in the Royal Family following Harry stepping down as a senior working member and then proceeding to take part in tell-all interviews and pen bombshell memoirs, the Duke does not plan to go, it has been claimed.

According to the Sunday Times, Prince Harry is not planning to attend the party which will be held on November 14 and attended by a small group of close friends and family, with the gap between them remaining wide.

And this isn't the first time this year that Harry has seemingly snubbed his dad. Back in September when the Duke flew from California to London for the Well Child Awards, his father is reported to have invited him to Balmoral around the time of the anniversary of the late Queen Elizabeth II's death, but it was not accepted.

It was reported at the time that the rejected offer came after Harry put in a formal request to the King’s office for royal accommodation and security during his overnight stay in the UK before heading to Dusseldorf, Germany for the Invictus Games.

This comes as Prince Harry continues to build a life for himself and his young family in Montecito, California. Since moving across the pond, Harry and Meghan have seemingly rebranded themselves by sitting down with Oprah Winfrey, collaborating with Netflix and penning bombshell memoirs.

The couple, who were recently seen at a Katy Perry concert alongside the likes of Celine Dion, have been rubbing shoulders with a slew of famous faces since moving to the States.
