GB News membership readers were asked whether they think that Prince Harry should return to the UK to support his father the King

Prince Harry made a quick dash to the UK to visit the King following his cancer diagnosis.

The Duke of Sussex made the whirlwind 24-hour trip to visit his father last week.


He spent just 45 minutes with the monarch, before flying back to the US.

The Prince has since flown to Canada alongside his wife Meghan Markle to promote the upcoming Invictus Games in 2025.

Following his visit to see his father, Prince Harry spoke to the US media, revealing that he will travel back to the UK often following the King's cancer diagnosis.

He told Good Morning America: "I have got many trips planned that will take me through the UK or back to the UK so I will my family as much as I can."

The Duke of Sussex was asked: "What is your outlook on his [the King's] health?"

He replied: "That stays between me and him."

Harry added that an illness can bring a family together.

He said: "Throughout all these families I see it on a day-to-day basis, again, the strength of the family unit coming together. I think any illness, any sickness brings families together."

The Duke of Sussex has now told his friends that he is prepared to take on a temporary role in the Royal Family to help his father while he is unwell, according to The Times.

However, his brother Prince William has reportedly ruled out Harry returning to the Royal Family in a temporary role during talks with the King, according to a source.

The Prince of Wales and the King held one-on-one talks at Sandringham this week.

A source close to William has said there is "zero chance" he would allow his brother back into the Royal Family fold.

The source told the Daily Mirror: "Whatever has been discussed between William and the King is private, but it is absolutely and categorically clear that he (William) would not allow Harry to return.

"He thought it was a bad idea at the time and he’s even more clear now. If anyone is going to take on more duties it will be William and that isn’t even on the agenda for now.

"His main focus is on his father’s health, his family and what is best for the monarchy. There is a zero per cent chance Harry is coming back in any capacity."

GB News membership readers were exclusively asked if they thought Prince Harry should return to the UK to support the King.

92 per cent of voters believe that the Duke of Sussex should not return, compared to just seven per cent who thought he should.
