HERE’S WHY PRINCE HARRY WON’T BE SEEING KING CHARLES ON UK TRIP
Prince Harry is returning to the UK this week. The reason for the Duke of Sussex’s visit is for the Invictus Games 10-year celebration ceremony in London. He will be attending a “service of thanksgiving” at St Paul’s Cathedral on Wednesday, 8 May. The Invictus Games Foundation was founded by the Duke in 2014 as a multisport event for wounded, injured and sick servicemen and women, both serving and veterans.
However, Prince Harry will not be seeing his father, King Charles during his trip. Buckingham Palace revealed that King Charles had cancer in February this year. Shortly after the announcement, Prince Harry flew to the UK to meet with his father.
