Prince Harry is back in the UK for the Invictus Games' 10th anniversary. He landed on May 7, accompanied by Meghan Markle. The Duke of Sussex, who established the event for injured military personnel, is set to deliver a speech on May 8 at the Invictus Games.
However, there's a notable absence from his agenda: meeting his father, King Charles. Reports suggest this absence is due to the monarch's "other priorities," as stated by Harry's spokesperson to The Independent.
While Harry is in the UK for the event, Meghan will not join him at St Paul’s Cathedral in London. However, she plans to accompany him to Nigeria later in the week.
There's speculation about the reason behind King Charles not meeting his son alone. Royal commentator Angela Levin suggests Queen Camilla's distrust of Harry, fearing he might gain sensitive information about the monarch's health, given his current vulnerable state due to cancer treatment.
Despite these familial complexities, the Invictus Games remain a significant event for Prince Harry, who founded it in 2014 as a gesture of gratitude to military personnel injured in action.
Prince Harry's arrival in the UK has garnered attention, especially on social media where royal editor Chris Ship announced his presence. Harry's solo travel without Meghan and their children, Archie and Lilibet, adds to the intrigue surrounding his visit. While his focus is on the Invictus Games, the absence of a meeting with King Charles highlights ongoing tensions within the royal family. Despite this, Harry's commitment to honoring the resilience of wounded military personnel remains steadfast.
