One particular image, however, stands out from before the split—a family portrait released in 2018 to celebrate Charles’ 70th birthday.

It shows Charles and Camilla surrounded by Prince William, Kate Middleton, their three children—George, Charlotte, and Louis—as well as Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.

Dressed in coordinated shades of white and blue, the group appears united and joyful. A more candid shot from the same session even shows the family laughing together, capturing what now feels like a fleeting moment of harmony.

Shortly after the birthday celebration, the BBC aired a documentary titled Prince, Son and Heir: Charles at 70.

In it, Harry spoke warmly about his father walking Meghan down the aisle at their wedding.

“I asked him to and I think he knew it was coming and he immediately said, ‘Yes, of course, I’ll do whatever Meghan needs, and I’m here to support you,’” Harry recalled.

He continued: “For him, that’s a fantastic opportunity to step up and be that support, and you know he’s our father so of course he’s gonna be there for us.”

Despite these past gestures of closeness, it seems that the bond between father and son has yet to fully mend. The 2018 portrait may now stand as the last formal image of the family united—before everything changed.
