STOCKBRIDGE, HAMPSHIRE - MAY 13: King Charles III hands over the Army Air Corps light blue beret to Prince William, Prince of Wales as they stand in front of an Apache helicopter during the official handover in which King Charles III passes the role of Colonel-in-Chief of the Army air corps to Prince William, Prince of Wales at the Army Aviation...

A rare royal double act from King Charles and Prince William as rift with Prince Harry drags on | CBC News LoadedWhen King Charles handed over a senior military title to Prince William the other day, it was more than a symbolic passing on of a role. It was also a personal moment rife with symbolism for the monarch and his heir, and hinted at the family dynamics at play right now in the House of Windsor.

"Especially with King Charles III's health, his cancer diagnosis, even though has been determined to remain in the public eye as much as possible, there has been a lot of looking to the future," said Harris. "It is even rarer to have the King and the Prince of Wales together, because normally they fan out and do their own engagements."

As much as Charles and William may have grown closer, there is no public sense the rift with Prince Harry has lessened in any way. Harris sees "a lot of moving parts" at play behind the fact that Harry and Charles did not meet, including that royal schedules are set months in advance, and Charles has always placed a high priority on keeping to his official diary.

After Harry's time in London, he and Meghan spent three days in Nigeria, taking part in events connected to the Invictus Games.Prince Harry says royal household plays 'dirty game,' leaking and planting stories "I think the does raise questions of roads that were not taken five years ago that perhaps would have made things easier for the monarchy today. We don't know whether choosing a different road would have simply delayed the rift or whether a full rift could have been averted entirely."King Charles, right, meets with artist Jonathan Yeo next to his portrait of the King, at Buckingham Palace in London on Tuesday.

As Sova sees it, Yeo's portrait of Charles is "trying to bring concepts and ideas into the composition in a way that the camera can't." Judith Rowbotham, a social and cultural scholar and visiting research professor at the University of Plymouth in southwestern England, doesn't think the portrait readily fits within traditional royal iconography.
