Prince Harry Pays Tribute to Queen Elizabeth at Windsor Castle

Prince Harry returned to the UK on Monday, making a private visit to Windsor Castle to lay flowers and pay his respects to the late Queen Elizabeth II.

The Duke of Sussex, who flew in earlier in the day, placed a wreath at the royal residence before continuing his engagements in London. He is scheduled to attend the annual WellChild Awards, a charity event he has long supported, before travelling to Nottingham on Tuesday to visit a community recording studio.

It remains unclear whether Harry will reunite with his father, King Charles III, or his brother, the Prince of Wales, during this trip. Relations between the duke and senior members of the royal family have been strained in recent years. His last in-person meeting with the King was more than 18 months ago, shortly after Charles revealed his cancer diagnosis.

This visit marks Harry’s first return to Britain in five months. Now based in California with his wife, Meghan, the duke continues to use his platform to support causes close to him, including WellChild, where he aims to bring together funders, influencers and key stakeholders to strengthen the charity’s mission.
