CAMILLA reportedly "spat out her tea" at Prince Harry's "ridiculous" suggestion for sorting out his rift with dad Charles, it's been claimed today.
Harry and Meghan met with with Charles and Camilla while stopping off in the UK on their way to The Hague for the Invictus Games.
Relationships between the Sussexes and the royal family have been strained since Megxit – with Harry even telling Oprah his father had "cut him off" amid the rift.
And Vanity Fair has reported the Duke of Sussex suggested a mediator to help heal the rift when he met with his dad and Camilla during a visit to the UK at Easter time this year.
A family friend said: "Harry went in with hugs and the best of intentions and said he wanted to clear the air.
"He actually suggested that they use a mediator to try and sort things out, which had Charles somewhat bemused and Camilla spluttering into her tea.
"She told Harry it was ridiculous and that they were a family and would sort it out between themselves."

And it's been further claimed that Harry and Meghan were late, meaning Charles had just 15 minutes with his son and daughter-in-law before he had to leave for the Royal Maundy Service at Windsor Castle.
William and Kate were reportedly skiing with the children, and the Prince of Wales pointedly did not change his holiday plans.
