Prince Harry is expected to visit the United Kingdom next week without his wife, the Duchess of Sussex, or their two children, according to current reports. Although Meghan, Archie, and Lilibet were initially planned to accompany him, they will no longer be traveling to London. This change follows confirmation that the family will not receive taxpayer-funded police security during their stay.
There remains a possibility that Meghan and the children might join Harry later in the week when his visit shifts to Birmingham for the Invictus Games promotion. However, it is uncertain whether King Charles will have an opportunity to see his grandchildren, aged seven and five, in person during this trip, as they have not met face-to-face for four years. Early assumptions suggested London would be the most suitable location for a family reunion, especially after the Duke and Duchess accepted an invitation to reside in a royal residence with their children.
The King’s schedule includes multiple public engagements next week, but Buckingham Palace has declined to comment on the private family details.

Should Meghan appear later in the week, she is slated to join Harry at Birmingham’s National Exhibition Centre for the year-long countdown event marking the Invictus Games. Previously, Prince Harry stated he would not bring his family to the UK without enhanced security, telling the BBC in 2025 that he “could not see a world in which I would be bringing my wife and children back to the UK at this point.” The ongoing security dispute centers around rulings by the Royal and VIP Executive Committee (Ravec), which governs protection for senior royals. Harry and Meghan last appeared together in the UK in 2022 during Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral, with Harry traveling alone for a visit last September that included meeting his father
