A source close to the palace reported by HeatWorld indicated that the Queen remains highly critical of the planned reunion, calling it a "huge mistake."
The source noted that the Queen recognizes the high stakes involved, saying, "not pretending this isn’t a huge gamble."

The insider added that royal staff and associates have been instructed to remain vigilant, being "on high alert."
The Queen intends to closely monitor interactions between the monarch and the visiting family members, saying she will "watch them like a hawk."
The source concluded that any resulting tension within the palace during the visit would be tolerated for the King's sake: "If that makes for an awkward atmosphere when they’re all in the same room, then so be it."
