Royal fans were hopeful last month after aides for both King Charles and Prince Harry were spotted in a secret peace summit – hinting that the monarch may be warming to the idea of a reunion with his youngest son.

Dragging all that extra weight around was exhausting in a blur of school runs, work calls and looking after my mum Christine, who was living with Alzheimer's. We'd always been very close, and she'd moved from London to be nearer to me and the children in the West Midlands. I loved being able to care for her, but with everything going on, I'd completely lost myself. I had no structure to my…
