Prince Harry Seeks Family Reconciliation in GQ Interview as 2020 Royal Rift Still Lingers

Summary
Prince Harry said he wants to "reconcile" with his family, telling GQ in New York that repairing ties with his father and brother is now the key priority.
Late-September remarks released this week framed the push as letting go of past wounds; a Sussex spokesperson said the timing was the publisher's decision and denied Harry was targeting Prince William.
2020 remains the backdrop: Harry and Meghan left royal duties for the United States, and his memoir "Spare" later exposed the depth of the fallout with William.
UK life now appears central to Harry's reset. He said moving back offered family opportunities, including putting Archie and Lilibet in a British school and spending longer on home soil.
The interview also widened to family health and grief, with Harry saying King Charles is "getting better" after cancer treatment and describing therapy as helping him carry Diana's memory forward.
