PRINCE Harry would put an end to the royal war with King Charles if his full security is restored, pals have claimed.
The Duke of Sussex, 39, lost the right to close protection after stepping back as a working royal.
He has since been stuck in a long-running legal battle over changing his government-funded UK security.
The monarch is said to find the long dispute between the US-based prince and the Home Office "very tricky".
Harry blames Charles's staff in charge of allocating police protection resources.
He lost a High Court challenge against a ruling it was legal but is set to appeal.

But friends of Harry told it would be "swords down" if his security were restored.
They also claimed Meghan "wishes he could let go of these lawsuits, be happy and live in the moment".
The sources added: "She wants him to be free of all this."
Meanwhile an insider close to the King said Harry's belief he controlled security matters was "mistaken".

Others said it would be "wholly inappropriate" for the King to wade into the legal battle which has cost the taxpayer at least £500,000.
It comes after Harry's oldest pal has claimed they only get "the odd WhatsApp from him" and he's an "angry boy".
The friend also said Harry would rather be in the UK with "everyone loving him" as Prince William and Princess Kate are.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex announced on January 8, 2020, they would be stepping down as "senior" members of the Royal Family.
Since then, the close friend alleged they barely hear from the wayward Duke.
Prince William also reportedly said he does not want Harry to come to his coronation.
Harry and Meghan have NO idea what they're doing now they've lost their power
By Matt Wilkinson and Summer Raemason
PRINCE Harry and Meghan Markle "haven't got a clue what they're doing now they've lost all their power", slammed a royal expert.
Victoria Murphy alleged the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, who jetted to Colombia yesterday, have no clear purpose to be on the controversial trip.
The royal expert spoke to The Sun's Royal Editor Matt Wilkinson on the Royal Exclusive show.
It comes as Harry and Meghan put on a loved-up display on the first day of their tour as they were welcomed in the capital Bogota by Colombia's Vice President Francia Márquez and her husband Rafael Yerney Pinillo.
The couple beamed as they watched a performance at the Delia Zapata National Centre for the Arts in Bogotá.
Mrs Murphy told The Sun: "We don't know who they're going to meet.
"When Sophie Duchess of Edinburgh met Francia Márquez, she was there representing Britain so it was very clear what Sophie represented, and it was not the interest of the Colombian government.
"That's what the working royals have, their message, their purpose, their representation is very clear when they go to other countries.
"With Harry and Meghan it's not clear what Archewell's stance is on a lot of things, in the same way.
"There's no doubt it will draw attention, but what is the purpose of that attention and how well thought through is it being channelled?"
The Sussexes spent around half-an-hour at the Vice President's residence, where they exchanged welcome gifts and were offered tea, coffee and traditional pandebono - Colombian cheese bread.
Ms Márquez said she was inspired to ask Harry and Meghan to visit the country after being moved by their Netflix documentary.
The vice-president described their trip as a "very special visit" aimed at building bridges and joining forces against cyber-bullying, as well as promoting women's leadership in Colombia.
Mr Wilkinson highlighted Harry and Meghan's new project The Parents Network and the couple's CBS sit down interview last week.
"This cause is absolutely brilliant. I think it's a really important cause for them to be championing but will it get the attention it deserves?," said Ms Murphy.
She continued: "I wonder whether they could have made more impact with it talking as working royals.
"I feel sometimes it's hard to see how everything fits together.
"With Harry and Meghan I feel they would benefit from being more focused on certain things and hammering home to the public 'this is what we represent'."
During Harry and Meg's chat with Ms Marquez, the Colombian leader said she shared the same ideals amid their campaign to make the digital world safer for children.
The Sussexes also visited a local school, the Colegio Cultura Popular, yesterday and joined a summit, in collaboration with their Archewell Foundation, about forging a healthier online space.
They spoke to children in a session where the class talked about their favourite and least favourite parts of social media and technology.
Meghan said the group should aim to be "self-reliant and not tech-reliant" while Harry questioned them on the conversations they have with their families about managing their social media platforms.
The brothers are understood not to have spoken since the Queen's funeral two years ago when they "barely exchanged a word", Harry wrote in Spare.
They were last seen together at King Charles' Coronation last May but they were sat separately and the Duke made a quick escape.
Harry visited the UK to mark the 10th anniversary of his Invictus Games in May this year - but declined to meet up with either King Charles or his older brother.
Growing up Wills and Harry shared many of the same friends who were part of their close, tight-knit circle.
But their relationship took a sour turn after Harry lobbed vile allegations against the Prince of Wales in his memoir Spare.
In the book he claimed William had physically attacked him and knocked him to the floor in 2019 and made insulting comments about Meghan.
The Sussexes had also targeted Princess Kate when Meghan claimed the royal made her cry.
And it seems that the Prince of Wales has no intention of making amends with Harry.
The bitter feud was ignited with full force when the Sussexes told Oprah, in their 2021 sit down interview, that certain members of the Royal Family had speculated about Prince Archie's skin colour.
It was later claimed the royals were Princess Kate and King Charles after Harry and Meghan's former pal Omid Scobie published his hatchet-job book Endgame.
During the infamous Oprah interview the Duchess also made stinging comments about the Firm and how they handled her mental health struggles.
A timeline of Prince Harry and William's 'feud': Brothers 'at war'
In 2018, the Sun told how "simmering tension" began when William questioned the speed of Harry and Meghan's engagement.
The first hints of friction reportedly came after William was introduced to Meghan when she was staying at Kensington Palace.
Once she'd returned home to Canada, William and Harry sat down for a brother-to-brother chat.
He knew Harry was already head-over-heels for her but it has been claimed he advised him to take it slowly.
The younger prince reportedly didn't take too kindly to the advice, with one royal source saying he "went mental".
Then in June 2019 Harry and Meghan officially split off from the charity they shared with William and Kate.
The Royal Foundation will be divided between the Sussexes and Cambridges as the couples focus on their own separate charitable endeavours.
Prince William and Prince Harry first established the Royal Foundation in 2009 before Kate joined two years later shortly after their engagement was announced.
The trio would often appear together at events and the Foundation had huge successes with projects like the Invictus Games for injured veterans and the mental health Heads Together campaign.
The Royal Foundation said the decision was made following the conclusion of a review into its structure - but added both couples will continue to work together in the future.
Harry and Meg were living in close proximity to Kate and Wills within the Kensington Palace estate, but they switched to Frogmore Cottage in Windsor before baby Archie was born.
The move further increased rumours of a fallout.
Harry, 39, also hinted in his ITV documentary "Harry and Meghan, An African Journey" that he and his brother had grown apart.
It came after Prince Philip called Meghan the "D.O.W" after the Duchess of Windsor — the American divorcee who led Edward VIII to abdicate.
And he warned the late Queen to be "cautious" of Harry's then bride-to-be, a royal author claims.
Ingrid Seward revealed in new book My Mother And I that Prince Philip felt it was "uncanny...how much Meghan reminded him of the Duchess of Windsor".
In 2021, Harry and Meghan give their bombshell interview with Oprah Winfrey where Harry accused his dad of cutting him off financially.
Harry then jetted back to UK to join William in unveiling a statue to their mother Princess Diana in the grounds of Kensington Palace.
But sources claimed William didn’t want to attend the memorial amid their ongoing rift.
In 2022, just before their grandmother the Queen died, sources claimed Kate acts as a "peacemaker" between the brothers.
Last year Harry claimed his brother "knocked him to the floor" during an argument about Meghan.
In his book Spare, Harry said William branded Meghan "rude" and "difficult" during a row.
Harry alleged William "grabbed me by the collar, ripping my necklace, and … knocked me to the floor".
He said he was left with a visible injury to his back following the argument in 2019 at Nottingham Cottage on the grounds of Kensington Palace, where he was living at the time.
In January this year, Harry flew in to be with Charles after the monarch's shock cancer diagnosis.
Harry flew back to the US the following day - without seeing Wills.
Prince William and Harry's bond then worsened after the Sussexes made a number of accusations against the Royal Family in their 2022 Netflix docuseries.
The duke has given subsequent interviews that only propelled bad blood.
He told ITV broadcaster Tom Bradby, while promoting Spare: "I would like to get my father back, I would like to have my brother back," but "they've shown absolutely no willingness to reconcile".
Meanwhile in a sit down CBS chat the Duke said he saw Queen Camilla as a "villain" who "left bodies in the street" in a bid to better her own reputation.
These harsh comments reportedly "crossed a red line" with King Charles.
Another ITV interview last month also saw Harry attack his family once again after he claimed their lack of support amid his UK security battle is a "central" part of their feud.
Shock waves that rippled across the globe after Harry and Meghan announced they were stepping down as senior working royals in 2020.
It came just two years after the celebration of their wedding at St George's Chapel at Windsor Castle in 2018.
The couple said they would be "financially independent" as they "carve out a progressive new role" but would still support the Queen.
At the time reports claimed the late Queen Elizabeth II was "deeply upset" while King Charles and Prince William were "incandescent with rage".
It is understood they wanted to act as "semi-working" royals but this did not turn out as planned.
The couple finished their "faux-royal" tour in Colombia yesterday.
