Prince Harry returns to Los Angeles before Elizabeth II's birthday
The Duke of Sussex has returned to his home in Montecito with Meghan Markle earlier than expected
Prince Harry has returned to his home in Montecito, California, after traveling to London to attend the funeral of his grandfather, Prince Philip of Edinburgh, last Saturday. It was the first time that Meghan Markle's husband had visited the UK since he moved to Los Angeles with his family after his resignation in 2020. The prince was expected to spend a few more days in the country to celebrate his grandmother's birthday, Queen Elizabeth II, who turns 95 this Wednesday, but in the end it has not been like that.
As revealed by the Daily Mail, Harry has flown to Los Angeles on an American Airlines commercial flight that arrived on Tuesday afternoon and has been taken directly to his home, where his wife would be waiting for him, who did not attend the funeral of the Duke of Edinburgh for her late pregnancy. Meghan is expecting her second child this spring, who will be a girl. The prince should comply with the 10-day recommended quarantine for international travelers arriving in the United States.
The queen does not maintain contact with other members of her family due to the pandemic
Harry's trip to the UK has been short but has been seen as a half-hearted rapprochement with his family. Queen Elizabeth II held civil mourning for the royal family during her husband's funeral in deference to two prominent members of the family - Prince Andrew for his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein and Prince Harry for his desire to lead a more independent life. that they could not wear military uniforms due to their new situations in terms of royal duties and privileges.
Another consideration towards Harry was the order in royal protocol that was kept for him with his brother, Prince William, and Princess Anne's eldest son, Peter Phillips. Although it was not clear that a rapprochement between Princes Harry and William could be seen, the brothers finally showed normality as they walked with Kate Middleton out of St George's Chapel in Windsor Castle, where some thirty family members and close friends they offered their last goodbye to Philip of Edinburgh.
The disagreements and quarrels in the British royal family have been a reality since Meghan and Harry decided to break their silence with Oprah Winfrey in the explosive interview that she gave so much to talk about. In it, Meghan accused some members of the Windsors of being concerned about the skin tone of her future child.
