In general, not a great deal is known about King Charles III's relationship with Lilibet and Archie. His coronation, which was attended solely by Prince Harry with Meghan Markle remaining in California with their children, was notably held on the same day as Archie's fourth birthday party — a clash many believe was probably why Harry left so quickly after the ceremony was over.
The shared dates of the coronation and birthday party may have been a complete coincidence, however. Even so, speaking to The Independent about how Charles felt regarding the date clash, ahead of the coronation, an insider acknowledged: "It is sad, he is very disappointed that he won't see Meghan or his grandchildren but understands the situation."
Moreover, according to The Telegraph, it was thought that Charles may not have the opportunity to get to know his grandchildren after Meghan and Harry were asked to leave Frogmore Cottage — particularly considering the couple now resides across the pond. In light of these rumors, Charles' gift to Lilibet is a sweet reminder that he does indeed care for his grandchildren.
