Prince Harry to bring Meghan, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet to the UK
Following much speculation, multiple news outlets have confirmed that Prince Harry is set to take his wife and kids with him to the UK next month.
The Duke of Sussex is set to be joined by Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, and their two children, Prince Archie, 7, and Princess Lilibet, 5, who will return to England for the first time since the late Queen Elizabeth’s Platinum Jubilee in June 2022.

Meghan, 44, was last in the UK in September that year, for Queen Elizabeth’s funeral.
It’s believed the family will attend the “one year to go” Invictus Games event in Birmingham in July together.
While in town, Prince Harry’s also expected to visit the few remaining charities he is patron of but it’s not known whether he will take his wife or kids along for those visits.

“He has wanted to have his kids meet their grandfather, especially after their summit in London last year,” they told the newspaper.
“While there have been deep-seated trust issues around Harry, there is a sense now that all parties want peace.”
Nine.com.au has reached out to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex for comment.
The visit will come after Prince Harry, 41, lost his bid for higher security protection when in the UK and vowing not to bring his family back until it was safe to do so.
“I can’t see a world in which I would bring my wife and children back to the UK at this point,” Harry told the BBC in an interview last year.

However, the bare minimum conditions required for the family’s return have been met, anonymous sources reportedly told The Sun.
While Prince Harry lost his case against the Home Office for automatic UK-taxpayer-funded police protection when in the country, he did secure a major breakthrough in December.
The Royal and VIP Executive Committee (Ravec) is yet to announce details or a decision of the new risk assessment on the family’s security situation.
It’s the same Home Office committee he accused of vetoing his security without an adequate risk assessment in the first place, leading to the court case.
“The UK government’s protective security system is rigorous and proportionate,” a government spokesperson told the BBC on Wednesday.
“It is our long-standing policy not to provide detailed information on those arrangements, as doing so could compromise their integrity and affect individuals’ security.”
