King Charles has heartfelt wish for Prince Harry and Prince William ahead of 75th birthday

The monarch is said to be wishing for a reconciliation between his sons

King Charles III is reportedly wishing for just one thing on his 75th birthday. The monarch is said to be wanting a reconciliation between his two sons, Prince William and Prince Harry.

It stems following tensions between the pair following bombshell revelations during Harry's chat with Oprah Winfrey. A palace insider said: "King Charles wants nothing more than peace to be restored in his family.

"He wants to draw a line under their past feuds and for Prince William and Prince Harry to get along - and what better timing than his birthday to bring them together."

They added: "King Charles has been through an awful lot since becoming king, and has been gallant in carrying out his duties while facing his own health woes as he announced he had cancer earlier this year.

"Now he wants nothing more than to make memories with his wife, sons and grandchildren. This is what he will treasure the most - especially as his milestone birthday approaches."

In his tell-all book Spare, Harry laid bare his Royal life and took swipes at various relatives. He particularly singled out Queen Camilla, alleging she fed stories about him to the press, The Mirror reports.

A source said: "Since inheriting the crown, he has spent more time exploring theologies and the teaching of their central tenets including the nature of forgiveness. The insider disclosed that Charles has gained "spiritual nourishment" from dialogues with clerics, which has led to a greater willingness to make amends with Harry, who's been residing in California with Meghan Markle and their two children.

"Faith has always been a part of Charles's life and something he's explored, but since becoming King it is playing a more central role...that reliance on faith and quiet contemplation has become a comfort and asset to him and helps him cope with the role as he adapts to being King," they said.

The insider added: "King Charles wants nothing more than peace to be restored in his family. He wants to draw a line under their past feuds and for Prince William and Prince Harry to get along.
