Prince Harry has reportedly agreed to share his official schedule with the royal family as a peace offering to his dad, King Charles III, and brother Prince William.
The olive branch would help avoid conflicts between Harry and Meghan Markle’s events and royal family engagements, the Daily Mail reported Saturday.
The proposal is allegedly a way of shutting down claims that the Sussexes are trying to steal the spotlight from the British royals.

The move came days after Harry’s trip to Angola dominated headlines and buried Charles’ wife Queen Camilla’s 78th birthday portrait reveal.
Harry’s transparency could potentially pave the way for a face-to-face meeting between him and his estranged dad being scheduled into their busy itineraries, especially considering peace talks have allegedly been held between the two camps.
“Before that meeting between their aides in London, conflicts of interest or clashes of publicity were relished and even perhaps encouraged by the Sussexes,” an insider claimed to the outlet, adding, “Now, Harry has shifted into a new way of thinking. The tone is now all about ‘deconflicting’ with his family.”
The source explained that the Sussex household has offered to “draw up a ‘grid’ of his activities and share them with Buckingham Palace.”
In doing so, Kensington Palace would also be looped in on the plans, therefore keeping William and Kate Middleton informed.
“Harry still doesn’t like being controlled by the Royal machinery, and that won’t change,” the insider said. “However, if the Royal Family have full sight of his movements they can at least plan accordingly.”
The source called Harry’s peace offering a “significant gesture.”
Page Six has reached out to Harry’s rep for comment.
Harry, 40, has been on the outs with his father, 76, and older brother, 43, since he and Markle, also 43, resigned from their royal duties in 2020. They ultimately moved to Montecito, Calif., where they live with their two kids: Prince Archie, 6, and Princess Lilibet, 4.
