Prince Harry says he doesn't 'know how much longer' King Charles has, seeks reconciliation
"I would love reconciliation with my family. There's no point continuing to fight anymore. Life is precious," Harry said.
Prince Harry said recently that he "would love a reconciliation" with the royal family.
Harry, in an interview with the BBC, said King Charles "won't speak to me because of this security stuff," but added that he doesn't want to fight with the family anymore.
He also said he doesn't know how long his father has left.
Prince Harry speaks to BBC after losing security appeal
After Harry lost his appeal to restore his UK government-funded security detail, he spoke with the BBC. Harry told the news outlet, "I can't see a world in which I would bring my wife and children back to the UK at this point."
The prince wanted to overturn the 2020 changes to his security detail when he stepped down from working as a royal. He told the BBC that this decision to remove his security detail has always had an impact on him, and he feels as though he can't safely return to the UK.
"Everybody knew that they were putting us at risk... they hoped that me knowing that risk would force us to come back," Harry said. "But then, when you realize that didn't work, do you not want to keep us safe?"
Prince Harry told King Charles to 'let the experts do their jobs': Report
When the British outlet asked Harry if he had talked to the king about intervening in the dispute, he said, "I never asked him to intervene. I asked him to step out of the way and let the experts do their jobs."
One insider told NewsNation's Paula Froelich that Charles is "very upset over Harry's insistence on fighting the government for police protection. He feels Harry knew what he signed up for when he and Meghan left the monarchy, but Harry, being Harry, just can't accept it."

The prince reportedly said that his defeat in court was a "good old-fashioned establishment stitch-up."
The BBC reported that he blamed the Royal Household for having influence over the decision on his security detail. He also said the treatment he faced during this process "uncovered my worst fears."
Overall, Harry explained that he is devastated about the decision. "Not so much as devastated with the loss that I am about the people behind the decision, feeling as though this is OK. Is it a win for them? I'm sure there are some people out there... (who) consider this a huge win."

"There have been so many disagreements between myself and some of my family... I would love reconciliation with my family," he said. "There's no point continuing to fight anymore. Life is precious."
Harry also noted that he misses his home country, telling the BBC, "I love my country."
"I think that it's really quite sad that I won't be able to show my children my homeland," he added.
