The release of the images sparked a flurry of activity on Twitter, with users expressing varied opinions about Meghan's public appearance. One person said: "Why's she doing this when Harry's not around?" Another said, "So predictable. Sad." Someone else commented, "She's grinning like crazy to cover up the fact that King Charles barely had 30 minutes for Harry. Some reports say it was even less… that's pretty embarrassing. Actions have consequences!" Another person questioned, "She's happy Charles is sick?" And someone else suggested, "Meghan, this is embarrassing. Now we see why Harry went! Just for PR!"

But Not Everyone Was That Negative

Some comments revolved around Prince Harry's visit to his father, while others offered defense for Meghan. One person asked, "Should she be mourning while the King's still alive? Nah!" Another said, "Harry did the right thing seeing his dad after the cancer diagnosis. He's a good son."

Reports indicate that Prince Harry is en route back home from London. He reportedly spent a brief 24-hour period in the UK, arriving after 2 p.m. on Tuesday and spending 45 minutes with his father. Despite tensions within Prince Harry's family stemming from his relocation to the US and decision to step down from royal duties, he hurried back to support his father. Meanwhile, Meghan remained in California with their children.

According to the King's former butler, Meghan opted to stay behind, believing that Harry needed to be with his father independently. Royal experts speculate that Meghan may visit her father-in-law in the near future, but for now, her focus remains on caring for their children.

Meghan has previously spoken fondly of Harry's father, particularly emphasizing his significant role in their wedding. In a Netflix documentary, she highlighted the importance of King Charles walking her down the aisle, especially in light of her own father's absence due to health issues and scandals.

Despite recent tensions within the royal family, King Charles III's illness could serve as a potential catalyst for reconciliation, particularly considering Harry's decision to step back and relocate to another country. Regarding health updates, King Charles III was recently diagnosed with cancer following a procedure for an enlarged prostate. He has commenced treatment and aims to resume full duties soon, receiving an outpouring of support and well-wishes from the public.

"During The King's recent hospital procedure for benign prostate enlargement, a separate issue of concern was noted. Subsequent diagnostic tests have identified a form of cancer. His Majesty has today commenced a schedule of regular treatments, during which time doctors have advised him to postpone public-facing duties. Throughout this period, His Majesty will continue undertaking State business and official paperwork as usual." The Royal Family announced on Instagram.

"The King is grateful to his medical team for their swift intervention, which was made possible thanks to his recent hospital procedure. He remains wholly positive about his treatment and looks forward to returning to full public duty as soon as possible. His Majesty has chosen to share his diagnosis to prevent speculation and in the hope it may assist public understanding for all those around the world who are affected by cancer." They closed in a statement.
