Prince Harry is reportedly planning to return to the UK as often as every few months following his recent 'successful' trip, according to royal sources cited by The Times. The Duke of Sussex, 41, is said to be keen to see his father, King Charles, and other family members more regularly after a 'happy' reunion at Highgrove House.
Recent Visit and Family Reunion
Harry visited the UK last month for the one-year countdown to the Invictus Games in Birmingham. He arrived a few days before his wife, Meghan Markle, and their children, Princess Lilibet and Prince Archie, joined him for the summer holidays. During his busy week, Harry was seen in public entertaining crowds at the Invictus Games event with This Morning host Alison Hammond.
The entire family was hosted by King Charles at Highgrove House, marking the first time in four years that the children, aged 5 and 3, saw their 77-year-old grandfather. The reunion was kept private, but a source close to the duke said Harry was left 'buoyed, very happy and really energised' by the visit.
Future Plans and September Return
Harry is expected to return to the UK next month for engagements with the WellChild charity and Invictus Game-related activities. However, it is not yet known whether the Duchess of Sussex and the children will join him in September.
The recent trip also included a visit to Althorp, the family estate of Harry's late mother, Princess Diana. The Sussexes and their children were hosted by Harry's uncle, Earl Spencer, and his wife Dr Cat Jarman. Meghan shared pictures on Instagram showing the family walking along a tree-lined path at Althorp, with Harry carrying a bouquet believed to be for Diana's grave, located on an island in the middle of Oval Lake.
Other Developments
In addition to family matters, Prince Harry had his phone hacking High Court case against Associated Newspapers, the publisher of the Daily Mail, dismissed last month. He is reportedly awaiting a final decision on the costs of the legal case later this month before deciding on a possible appeal, according to The Times.
The Duke's legal and personal affairs continue to unfold, with his potential return to the UK on a more frequent basis marking a significant shift in his relationship with the royal family. His next visit is anticipated in September, with further engagements likely to follow.
