Prince Charles has shared a rare touching photograph of his son Prince Harry as a teenager amid their strained relationship in order to mark his 37th birthday.
The Prince of Wales and the Duke of Sussex are understood to have had a fallout following the bombshell Oprah Winfrey interview, in which Prince Harry claimed his father has 'stopped taking my calls'.
But after Prince Charles appeared to offer Harry a surprise olive branch last month, the Prince has publicly shown he cares by remembering his birthday by uploading the sweet post to Clarence House Instagram.
Prince Charles shared a throwback snap of him and a young Prince Harry - who was aged 13 at the time - leaving their handprints during a South Africa visit to a Zulu Village.
The photo was captioned, 'Happy Birthday to the Duke of Sussex' and with it were two more recent snaps, one of Prince Harry alone and the other of him and Prince Charles (wearing the regimental tie of the Household Division) to attend the Opening Ceremony of the Invictus Games at the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in 2014.
The father and son duo appear to be enjoying both experiences together as they both smile for the cameras - a happy scene that hasn't been repeated in recent months.
