Summary
Next month’s trip will be Harry and Meghan’s first UK visit with Archie, 7, and Lilibet, 5, in four years, with the family set to stay for several days on a royal estate as guests of the King.
The visit centers on Prince Harry launching the one-year countdown to the Invictus Games in Birmingham next July, alongside stops at UK charities he has continued to support.
Security remains a key issue: Harry previously declined Buckingham Palace accommodation over visibility concerns and lost his court fight last year to restore police protection for UK visits.
Buckingham Palace has not disclosed the residence or any meeting with the King, and no extra security has been offered by the palace; any additional provision would fall to the Home Office.
The trip could carry family significance because King Charles last saw Archie and Lilibet in person during Queen Elizabeth II’s Platinum Jubilee in 2022.
