Senior members of the Royal Family reportedly intend to "shut out the noise" surrounding Prince Harry's solo trip to the UK this week by focusing on official duties. Senior working royals are scheduled to carry out more than 29 public engagements across the country, with many appearances arranged well in advance.
Harry's Solo Visit Amid Renewed Speculation
The packed programme comes as renewed attention falls on Prince Harry's relationship with the Royal Family, following days of speculation over whether Meghan Markle and their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, would accompany him to Britain. Royal sources have described the drama surrounding the Sussexes' travel plans as "tiresome", while confirming King Charles is also expected to hold a number of private audiences and meetings not listed in the Court Circular ahead of time.
Prince Harry will be travelling to the UK alone following concerns over his security arrangements. Meghan and the children are instead understood to be spending time in mainland Europe.
