Will Prince Harry stay in England to celebrate Elizabeth II's birthday this Wednesday?
With the approach of the sovereign's 95 years, this Wednesday, the Duke of Sussex could postpone his return flight to Los Angeles, revealed the Sun, this Monday, April 19.
The image went around the world. Elizabeth II, dressed all in black, appears impassive and alone on a bench in St. George's Chapel in Windsor. This photograph of the Queen of England, immortalized at the funeral of Prince Philip on Saturday, April 17, broke the hearts of the British, as it reflects the extreme loneliness in which the sovereign has been plunged since the death of her husband, which occurred April 9. It is difficult, therefore, to imagine Prince Harry leaving the United Kingdom in such circumstances.
The Duke of Sussex, who attended his grandfather's funeral, may choose to postpone his return flight to Los Angeles, The Sun revealed on Monday, April 19. Prince Harry would indeed have opted for a “flexible date” plane ticket. If he chose to stay on British territory, he could celebrate Elizabeth II's 95th birthday alongside his loved ones on Wednesday, April 21.
Two hours with princes Charles and William
"Harry should stay for the Queen's birthday, that would be the least thing about his grandmother." He would also have the opportunity to exchange more with his father and his brother ”, underlined the royal biographer Penny Junor in the columns of the British daily. An opportunity to thwart the tensions that have reigned for months within the clan: the confidences of the Duke of Sussex to Oprah Winfrey, broadcast on March 7 on CBS, had, in fact, not been to the liking of the Windsors. "I was trapped by the system, like the rest of my family," said the Duke of Sussex at the time. My father and my brother are prisoners of it. They don't have the opportunity to leave, and I have a lot of compassion for them. ”
Since then, Prince Harry would have had the opportunity to meet for two hours with Princes Charles and William. This closed-door conversation would have taken place under the golds of Windsor Castle, after Prince Philip's funeral. The two brothers also exchanged a few words during their grandfather's funeral. A week earlier, Prince Harry had left his home in Montecito, California, leaving behind his son Archie, 1, and his wife Meghan Markle, pregnant with their second child, to fly to England. He had subsequently observed a quarantine lasting several days at Frogmore Cottage. If he will soon be reunited with his family in America, Prince Harry will make a second trip to the United Kingdom during the summer. He will join Prince William at the inauguration of the statue of Lady Diana in London on July 1.
