Prince Harry has extended his visit to the UK as a meeting with his father, King Charles, has not been ruled out.
The Duke of Sussex has not seen his father since February 2024, just days after the monarch’s cancer diagnosis was announced by Buckingham Palace.
Harry has made multiple solo appearances in England since their last face-to-face meeting at Clarence House but has not been able to arrange a meeting with the King.
Initially, only two engagements on Monday and Tuesday were announced ahead of the duke’s return to the UK but Prince Harry is now expected to make further public appearances on Wednesday and Thursday.
