King Charles leaves Windsor as Prince Harry prepares to fly back to the UK – Duke is expected to meet the monarch when he returns to the Invictus Games ceremony tomorrow before joining Meghan on tour of Nigeria

The King traveled from Windsor to London today as Prince Harry prepares to fly back to Britain for a ceremony marking the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games.

Charles was seen being kicked out of Windsor Castle on his way to Clarence House this morning, ahead of the Duke of Sussex’s arrival in the coming hours.

Harry is expected to reunite with his estranged father during his latest trip to the UK, which follows an earlier quick visit in February following Charles’ cancer diagnosis.

Tomorrow night, Harry will give a reading at a thanksgiving service at St Paul’s Cathedral, marking a decade since the inaugural Invictus Games in London in 2014.

Organizers say there has been no confirmation of other royals attending, or whether Harry’s wife Meghan Markle or children Archie and Lilibet will also be in the UK.

However, the duke is expected to come to London alone before joining the duchess on a tour of Nigeria, and Meghan will travel alone from the United States.

And Harry is not expected to see his brother Prince William, who will be out of the capital on Thursday and Friday, or his sister-in-law Kate Middleton, whose cancer treatment continues after she revealed the diagnosis in March.

The Duke invited William and other senior members of the Royal Family to the service, but none of them are expected to attend, sources said. Page six In the USA.

Among the royals who could attend are their cousins ​​Zara Tindall and Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie, but there has been no confirmation of this. Harry is expected to stay in a hotel in London because he no longer owns Frogmore Cottage in Windsor.

But Charles is likely to be in London tomorrow for his usual weekly audience with Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, giving father and son a chance to reunite.

Although Charles has been hurt by his son’s behavior in recent years, he has always privately insisted that he will keep the door open for him to at least talk.

However, it is understood that William finds it harder to forgive or even let go of his brother’s betrayal.

The Prince and Princess of Wales will be in Windsor, where they have asked for privacy so Kate can focus on her recovery from serious abdominal surgery and ongoing preventive chemotherapy for cancer that was subsequently discovered.

It will be Harry’s first visit to the UK since February, when he returned on a short trip to see his father, the King, following his cancer diagnosis.

It is also the first major event he has attended in Britain for some time and comes amid an ongoing legal case over his personal safety measures when in the UK.

It will also be Harry’s first visit since the Princess of Wales revealed her cancer diagnosis.

Experts say that while he may meet his father, the king, he is unlikely to meet Kate or Prince William.

Royal author Tom Bower told MailOnline: “I’m sure he won’t see Kate.” “I would be surprised if Meghan came.”

Fellow royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams added: “Catherine is receiving preventative chemotherapy treatment and given the depth of the breach I find it unlikely.”

“The only hope for reconciliation is for it to happen privately and we don’t know about it.”

And former BBC royal correspondent Michael Cole said: “After so much bad blood, it is very difficult to see any kind of reconciliation between the Sussexes and the Royal Family (this) week, or in the foreseeable future.”

Harry and Meghan were understood to have contacted the Prince and Princess of Wales “privately” after Kate announced her cancer diagnosis.

They also released a statement saying, “We wish health and healing for Kate and her family.”

Tomorrow’s service at St Paul’s, which is expected to run from 5pm to 6pm, will come two days after Harry’s son Archie celebrated his fifth birthday yesterday.

Actor Damian Lewis will recite a poem during the service.

Representatives from all Invictus Games participating nations will also attend, including members of wounded, injured and ill service personnel and the veteran community.

After the ceremony, Harry and Meghan are scheduled to head to Nigeria after being invited by the West African country’s chief of defense staff.

She met Harry in Germany last September at the Invictus Games Düsseldorf in Germany, which the Duchess also attended.

Harry is a patron of the Invictus Games Foundation and last year launched a documentary series with Netflix called Heart of Invictus about the athletes.

Yesterday, the Sussexes celebrated Archie’s fifth birthday privately ahead of their upcoming travel plans, People reported.

A source said a “low-key” party was planned at the family’s £12million mansion in Montecito, California.

They added: ‘They will have friends around them and Meghan’s mother Doria (Ragland). “Meghan will definitely have support that weekend.”

Speaking about Lilibet, the source also said: ‘They are so sweet together. Archie loves Lili. He is such a sweet boy. When she is not near her, he asks, “Where is Lili?”

In February, the Duke and Duchess attended a launch event for the new winter version of the Invictus Games in Whistler, Canada.

Speaking to ABC’s Good Morning America at the time, Harry said: The children are doing very well. He added. ‘The children are growing up like all children, very, very fast.

“They both have an incredible sense of humor, make us laugh, and keep us grounded every day, like most kids do. I’m just grateful to be a dad.”

Also yesterday, Charles and Queen Camilla celebrated the first anniversary of their coronation, which was attended by Henry, fifth in line to the throne.

He was sitting in the third row of Westminster Abbey and had no formal role in the proceedings.
