Prince Harry has returned to his home in Montecito, California after attending the funeral of his grandfather Prince Philip, BAZAAR.com confirms.
The Duke of Sussex quietly returned to the West Coast on April 20, after nine days in the UK to join family as they honored the life of the late Duke of Edinburgh and supported the Queen.
While in England, the prince lived at his home at Frogmore Cottage in Windsor, where he was able to see a number of family members, including Princess Eugenie and her newborn son, August Philip Hawke Brooksbank, after a five-day isolation period. according to current COVID-19 government guidelines.
Last Saturday’s funeral, which took place at St George’s Chapel in Windsor Castle, marked the first time Harry came face to face with family since he officially stepped down from his royal role in March 2020. But although talks with his father, Prince Charles, and brother, Prince William, took place after the April 17 service, sources say BAZAAR.com that reports of peace talks and family gatherings are totally inaccurate.
“This trip was to honor his grandfather’s life and support his grandmother and family members,” explains a source close to Harry. ‘It was really a time when the family was central. Saturday broke the ice for future talks, but outstanding issues have not been addressed in detail. The family just put their problems aside to focus on what was important. “
A tabloid report claiming that Harry wrote a “very personal” letter for his father before the funeral is also false, the source adds. Prince Charles has been staying at his estate in Llwynywermod in Wales (more than 300 kilometers from Windsor) since Sunday.
BAZAAR understands that Harry has met the Queen, who is turning 95 today, at least twice in private during his time in the country. “The love and respect he has for his grandmother will always be unshakable,” a source said earlier.
While no plans have been officially confirmed yet, the Duke of Sussex is expected to return to the UK this summer for the unveiling of a statue of his late mother, Princess Diana. He will join William at Kensington Palace’s Sunken Garden for a ceremony that has been rescheduled from summer 2020.
