In a statement, Harry and Meghan's spokesperson said: “In response to UK media headlines, there has been no contact regarding an invitation to His Majesty’s upcoming birthday.

“It is disappointing the Sunday Times has misreported this story.”

A source also claimed that neither King Charles nor anyone else from Buckingham Palace had “reached out” to the couple.

However, it has now been reported that Prince Harry will call his father today from his home in Montecito.

Well-placed sources told the BBC that the Duke of Sussex intends to wish his father a happy birthday, despite not being able to attend the private party.​

During today's festivities, the King will host a reception for NHS nurses and midwives.

To celebrate his birthday milestone, ceremonial gun salutes will mark the day, including at the Tower of London.

On Monday, the King celebrated his 75th birthday with other people of the same age, who were invited to a party at Highgrove House in Gloucestershire.
