THE King has committed himself to building a relationship with Prince Harry's children and to be present in their lives, sources say.
The monarch, who has been having treatment for cancer since February, has told friends he is not content with only seeing them on video calls after meeting Archie, five, only a handful of times and two-year-old Lilibet once.
His decision to step up efforts to become more involved comes as it can be revealed he sent Lili a "heartfelt gift and card" on her birthday last week.
Sources close to the 75-year-old King, who was in Normandy last week for D-Day commemorations, say he is "keener than ever" to focus on his family and his duties and "make up for lost time" after being forced to scale back engagements after his diagnosis.
Prince Harry, 39, his wife Meghan, 42, and their children live in Montecito, California, after the Duke and Duchess of Sussex quit royal life in 2020.

The expected successor to Sean Dyche in the Goodison Park hot-seat will have an FA Cup fourth-round clash to contend with later this month. But this was hardly a performance to stir Blue blood just hours after Dyche departed.
