Prince Harry is scheduled to attend the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games in the UK, amid ongoing health battles within the royal family and declining public support for the monarchy.
Prince Harry is set to return to the UK to mark the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games. This visit, scheduled for May, will be his first since relocating to California in 2020. It is currently uncertain whether Meghan Markle and their children will accompany him. Amidst this, Prince William and his wife, Kate Middleton, the Princess of Wales, are facing health challenges, with both undergoing cancer treatment. The royal couple’s forthcoming anniversary is expected to be low-key as a result.
Meanwhile, King Charles is also progressing with his cancer treatment and plans to visit a cancer treatment center soon to support awareness and outreach efforts. Public support for the monarchy, however, has seen a decline, reaching its lowest point in over four decades, as noted in a recent survey by the National Centre for Social Research.
During his UK visit, Harry’s accommodation has not been confirmed, with speculation about whether he will stay in a hotel or at a royal residence. Security arrangements have been a primary concern, especially following legal disputes over his entitlement to police protection in the UK. The Home Office has assured adequate security measures for his participation at public events.
Meghan Markle is reported unlikely to attend the UK events, with commentators suggesting her presence could overshadow the focus of the Invictus Games. Instead, Meghan plans to travel alone to Nigeria for separate engagements. The couple’s schedules indicate they will continue their charitable work independently in different locations.
This series of events and visits comes at a time when the royal family navigates both personal health battles and fluctuating public support, underlining a period of significant personal and public adjustment for the members of the family.
