Prince Harry will return to the UK next week for his ongoing legal battle, but many members of the royal family will be away on business during his visit

rince Harry is expected back in the UK next week as his nine-week trial against the publisher of The Daily Mail begins. However, despite meeting with King Charles during a visit in September last year, Harry isn’t expected to have any royal contact during his trip this time.

While it’s unclear how long the Duke of Sussex will be staying in the country, King Charles, Queen Camilla and the Prince and Princess of Wales all have engagements north of the border, far away from the royal while he’s in London.

William has several engagements away from London

The Prince and Princess of Wales

William and Kate are also headed north of the border during Harry’s visit, holding engagements in Stirling and Falkirk. During one of the visits, the pair will join curlers from Team GB at an ice rink ahead of this year’s Winter Olympics and Paralympics. The royal pair, who are known for their friendly rivalry, will no doubt aim to better the other when they’re invited to try their hand at the sport.

William has a separate engagement on Thursday, when Harry is expected to give evidence, as he heads to Bristol to showcase the city’s trailblazing achievements in sustainability and its role as a driving force for innovation in the UK.
