King Charles is thought to be trying to mend his relationship with Prince Harry, but it seems he has "another obstacle to overcome".

The monarch has been estranged from his son ever since Harry and his wife Meghan Markle stepped back from the Royal Family and moved to America. After leaving the UK, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex made a number of explosive allegations about The Firm.

The couple released a Netflix docuseries in which Harry claimed his brother Prince William "screamed and shouted" at him during a tense meeting. He also accused his family of leaking information to the press. Following the documentary, Harry released his debut memoir Spare and took aim at his step-mother Queen Camilla.

In the book, Harry certainly didn't hold back his dislike of Camilla and even referred to her as "the Other woman" and his "wicked stepmother". He claimed he and William begged their father not to marry Camilla, but said they would ultimately welcome her into the family.

Harry also described the Queen as "dangerous" and a "villain". He alleged she leaked stories to the press about his wife and said Camilla "sacrificed him" so as to improver her standing within the Royal Family.

It's believed Camilla is still hurt by Harry's words, making it difficult for the King to reunite with his son. A source said Harry's relationship with both his brother and step-mother are irreparable.

"There is virtually no chance of mending the damage between his two sons. The Queen is also still very deeply hurt by the comments made about her and that’s another obstacle for Charles to overcome," the source told OK! magazine.

However, Harry and his father recently had a "turning point" in their frosty relations as the Duke of Sussex phoned the King to wish him a happy 75th birthday. It's been claimed the pair are set for another call as they work towards a "reconciliation".

The source told OK!: "It really hit home how he should try to work through this for the children's sake. Charles knows he doesn't have many more birthdays or Christmases left and wants to try to repair the rift so that his grandchildren will be a part of the family like everyone else."
