King Charles has five grandchildren through his two sons, Prince William and Prince Harry, but there have sadly been very few opportunities for the five royal youngsters to meet in the flesh. Prince George, Princess Charlotte, Prince Louis, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet have never been pictured together for a number of reasons which stem from their father's ongoing feud and the Sussexes lives in the US.
A royal expert has questioned the effect that the family split will have on the younger generation, as well as whether The Prince and Princess of Wales will feel upset over the lack of a relationship with their nephew and niece. Speaking exclusively to OK! former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond revealed how the couple could feel.
She said: "Things are so bitter and feelings run so deep that I don't think Prince William and Catherine will be wishing they had a relationship with Archie and Lilibet, any more than they really want Harry and Meghan to have any responsibility for George, Charlotte and Louis." Referring to an interview Prince Harry gave to promote his memoir Spare, Jennie added: "William was very put out when Harry said he was trying to protect William's two youngest children from their destiny of becoming a spare like him." Harry's exclusive interview with The Telegraph after the release of Spare saw him admit that he worries his niece and nephew - Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis - will "end up" like him. He told the paper: "Though William and I have talked about it once or twice, and he has made it very clear to me that his kids are not my responsibility.

The Princess of Wales' dedication to furthering what we know about early years development has allowed for huge developments throughout the last decade. And it is clear that the Princess practices what she preaches as there have been several links drawn between her work and the way she and Prince William are raising Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.
