Prince Harry will not return home to Meghan Markle in California after visiting the UK today to attend the WellChild 2024 awards.

The Duke of Sussex, 40, has been away from his wife and two children Prince Archie, 5, and Princess Lilibet, 3, on a series of solo engagements this month, and this is set to continue into early October.

After his brief two-day visit to the UK, Harry will not be flying home to Meghan, 43, and instead will travel to Lesotho in Africa to promote the work of Sentebale, the charity he co-founded with Prince Seeiso to help young people in need.

On this solo engagement, Harry will join business leaders, philanthropists and locals to promote the work of the charity, which was inspired by the work of Harry’s late mother Princess Diana.

Lesotho’s Prince Seeiso, who co-founded Sentebale with Harry nearly 20 years ago, said it would fill the community with “joy” to welcome back “Mohale” – Harry’s Sesotho royal name, which means “warrior”.

Prince Harry had previously said in a statement: “As we head towards our 20th anniversary, our ambition has grown, giving us the confidence to bring our skills and experience in designing solutions with young people, and to leveraging our convening power to engage with leading regional players and global funders so we can add Sentebale’s voice to addressing the challenges faced by the next generation in southern Africa.”

Sentebale chairwoman Dr Sophie Chandauka said: “The Duke’s return to southern Africa… marks a milestone as we collaborate with world-class organisations and local leadership to engage this critical youth cohort.

“Together, we aim to accelerate digital and economic inclusion, addressing the low levels of access and literacy, which are crucial for young people’s participation in the global economy and for achieving Sentebale’s goals in health, wealth creation and climate resilience.”

 

The solo engagement in Africa will be the third place Harry has visited without Meghan over the last month.

The Duke of Sussex then jetted to the UK on Sunday ahead of his attendance at the WellChild Awards today (September 30).

Harry has not met up with any members of the Royal Family during the recent UK visit and is unlikely to see any members of his family before leaving the country again.
