Prince Harry has offered an olive branch to the Royal Family but "received no response", sources have claimed.
The Duke of Sussex is thought to have invited his family to the Invictus Games 10-year celebration ceremony in London.
However, no senior members of the Royal Family are expected at the event at St Paul’s Cathedral on Wednesday.
His sister-in-law Princess Kate is currently undergoing cancer treatment away from the public eye, and Harry remains estranged from his older brother, Prince William.

Prince Harry, 39, is understood to have not spoken to his brother Prince William, 41, for more than a year in the wake of his bombshell memoir Spare.
A well-placed London socialite who knows the brothers confirmed to Page Six that Harry invited William, as well as other members of the Royal Family, to the event.
It is still unknown whether Harry will see his father, King Charles, who is also undergoing cancer treatment.
Buckingham Palace has said they will not comment on private meetings.
Prince Harry will return to the UK next week
ReutersKing Charles is expected to invite Harry and his wife Meghan Markle to Balmoral Castle in Scotland this summer so he can see his grandchildren Archie, four, and two-year-old Lilibet.
Harry and his father last saw each other in February when Charles, 75, was diagnosed with cancer and the duke jetted over from California to see him, but was given just over 30 minutes with the King.
On the day of Harry’s event, Charles will have his weekly audience with UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak before attending the first Buckingham Palace garden party of the season, medical advice pending.
He is also understood to have a packed diary next week. It is expected Harry will not travel to the UK until after Archie’s birthday celebrations, who turns five on Monday.

PAThe Duke of Sussex told ABC News in February he was "grateful" for the time spent with his father earlier that month, adding: "I’ll stop in and see my family as much as I can."
It is still unknown whether his cousins, Princess Beatrice, Princess Eugenie, and Zara Tindall, all of whom he remains close to, will attend the celebrations.
Harry will be staying in a hotel in London, as he no longer has a UK home after being asked to give up Frogmore Cottage on the Windsor estate. He also will be without Meghan and their two children.
Later this month, the couple, without Archie and Lilibet, will fly to Nigeria for a tour in connection with the Invictus Games.

The couple were invited to the West African country by Chief of Defense Staff General Christopher Gwabin Musa. The cost of their security is set to be paid for by the government of Nigeria, according to reports.
While in Nigeria they are expected to meet with officials, veterans and athletes participating in the Invictus Games.
The Sussexes’ itinerary is said to include visits to military rehabilitation centres and sports facilities, as well as meetings with local organisations working to support veterans’ welfare.
