Prince Harry’s Brief Visit to the UK and Arrival in Germany for Invictus Games
Prince Harry has made a swift visit to the UK, lasting just 23 hours, before heading to Germany for the Invictus Games.
The Duke of Sussex was spotted arriving in Germany, where he will open the games in Dusseldorf on September 9th.
The Invictus Games, hailed as Harry's best work by experts, will be held at the Merkerspiel Arena from Saturday until September 16th.
Harry's trip to the UK included attending the Wellchild Awards in London and paying tribute to his late grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II, on the first anniversary of her passing.
The Queen's death marked the beginning of King Charles III's reign.
It was unclear how long Harry would stay in the UK, but his presence in Germany for the games was expected.
Speculation arose that Harry's short visit to the UK was due to an ultimatum from the King and UK Parliament, limiting his stay to 24 hours.
He flew to the UK alone, without his wife Meghan Markle, who is expected to join him in Germany on September 11th.
Despite Meghan's name being removed from the Games schedule, she is still anticipated to support her husband next week.
Whether their children, Archie and Lilibet, will accompany Meghan on the trip remains unknown.
Before departing for Germany, Harry made a surprise visit to Windsor Castle to pay his respects to his late grandmother.
He was seen leaving the chapel where Queen Elizabeth II is laid to rest.
The King George VI Memorial Chapel, located within the walls of St. George's Chapel, serves as the final resting place for Queen Elizabeth II.
On Thursday night, Harry attended the Wellchild Awards, a charity he has been a patron of for 15 years.
This marked his first appearance in the UK since his highly publicized legal case against Mirror Group Newspapers earlier this year.
Last September, Harry and Meghan were scheduled to attend the awards, but they canceled due to the Queen's passing, with Harry traveling to Balmoral instead.
Prince Harry traveled to Germany on British Airways and is now staying in the Presidential Suite at the Hyatt Regency Dusseldorf.
His visit to London to commemorate the anniversary of Queen Elizabeth II's death was followed by his arrival in Dusseldorf, where he will officially open the Invictus Games tomorrow.
