PRINCE Harry will return to the UK for the Invictus Games Foundation’s 10th Anniversary in just days – but Meghan is not expected to be by his side.

An Invictus Games spokesperson confirmed the Duke will arrive at the Service of Thanksgiving at St Paul’s Cathedral on Wednesday 8th May.

The star-studded event marks a decade since the inaugural Invictus Games London in 2014.

Harry, 39, will celebrate the impact sport can make on people’s lives and honour the occasion with a special reading.

It will be his first time in Britain since Princess Kate announced she is receiving treatment for cancer on March 22.

However, wife Meghan’s attendance has not been confirmed yet, alongside their children Archie and Lilibet.

Archie’s birthday lands just two days prior and will mark the same day as King Charles’ first coronation anniversary, May 6.

Meg, 42, has joined Harry at his games in Toronto, Sydney, The Hague and Dusseldorf – and the one-year-out launch party for Vancouver.

However, she has not been seen in the UK since attending Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral in September 2022.

She turned down an invite to the King’s Coronation as it clashed with Archie’s fourth birthday.

Meanwhile, acting legend Damian Lewis is expected to recite the Invictus poem during the service.

Harry previously said he would want the star to play him in a film about his life.

Representatives from across the Invictus Games participating nations will be attending the heartwarming service.

They include members of the wounded, injured and sick service personnel and veteran community, confirmed the Invictus Games spokesperson.

They will also be performing readings throughout the Service, led by The Very Reverend Andrew Tremlett, Dean of St Paul’s.

Major members of the Royal Family – who did join in with early editions of Harry’s biannual event – are not expected to attend.

It is not known where the duke will be staying on his visit but he is homeless in the UK after being evicted last summer from Frogmore Cottage.

FAMILY REUNION

It comes as several royal experts speculate on the possibility of a reunion between Harry, the King, and Prince William.

The Invictus Games service runs from 5pm until 6.30pm which clashes with the first Buckingham Palace garden held between 3pm and 6pm.

With King Charles announcing he is fit and well enough to return to public-facing duties, the lavish outdoor bash could be on the cards.

Prince William, 41, could also appear at the first of two palace garden parties and the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh and Princess Anne are also possible star guests.

The Princess of Wales, 42, who is undergoing cancer treatment, is not expected to attend.

While some royal experts claim His Majesty is open to reconciliation – it may be a tougher job with Wills.

I think with William it’s going to be a much longer process

Richard Palmer

Others have suggested a turbulent period for the family amid their health battles could see the fractured relationships pieced back together.

Esteemed royal reporter, Richard Palmer, spoke on The Sun’s Royal Exclusive show and said: “I do think Harry and his father are trying to reconcile,” said Mr Butler.

“I think with William it’s going to be a much longer process.

“But eventually, maybe, you know that lots of families have disputes and over time they can heal their divisions, but there’s a big job to be done yet with William.”

There’s no doubt Harry wishes to convey he is a very devoted family man and will put them above everything else

Richard Fitzwilliams

Meanwhile, Royal expert Richard Fitzwilliams revealed that while a possible reunion could happen soon, the future King “has been through enough”.

 

And, the royal commentator previously dubbed Meghan the obstacle in the way of laying “one of the worst public royal rifts ever” to rest.

He claimed: “Meghan has the say. There’s no doubt Harry wishes to convey he is a very devoted family man and will put them above everything else. Just like William.”

Prince Harry & William’s ‘feud’: Brothers ‘at war’

In 2018, the Sun told how “simmering tension

The first hints of friction reportedly came after William was introduced to Meghan when she was staying at Kensington Palace.

Once she’d returned home to Canada, William and Harry sat down for a brother-to-brother chat.

He knew Harry was already head-over-heels for her but it has been claimed he advised him to take it slowly.

The younger prince reportedly didn’t take too kindly to the advice, with one royal source saying he “went mental”.

Then in June 2019 Harry and Meghan officially split off from the charity they shared with William and Kate.

The Royal Foundation will be divided between the Sussexes and Cambridges as the couples focus on their own separate charitable endeavours.

Prince William and Prince Harry first established the Royal Foundation in 2009 before Kate joined two years later shortly after their engagement was announced.

The trio would often appear together at events and the Foundation had huge successes with projects like the Invictus Games for injured veterans and the mental health Heads Together campaign.

The Royal Foundation said the decision was made following the conclusion of a review of its structure – but added both couples will continue to work together in the future.

Harry and Meg were living near Kate and Wills within the Kensington Palace estate, but they switched to Frogmore Cottage in Windsor before baby Archie was born.

The move further increased rumours of a fallout.

Harry, 39, also hinted in his ITV documentary “Harry and Meghan, An African Journey” that he and his brother had grown apart.

It came after Prince Philip called Meghan the “D.O.W” after the Duchess of Windsor — the American divorcee who led Edward VIII to abdicate.

And he warned the late Queen to be “cautious” of Harry’s then bride-to-be, a royal author claims.

Ingrid Seward revealed in her new book My Mother And I that Prince Philip felt it was “uncanny… how much Meghan reminded him of the Duchess of Windsor”.

In 2021, Harry and Meghan gave their bombshell interview with Oprah Winfrey where Harry accused his dad of cutting him off financially.

Harry then jetted back to the UK to join William in unveiling a statue of their mother Princess Diana on the grounds of Kensington Palace. But sources claimed William didn’t want to attend the memorial amid their ongoing rift.

In 2022, just before their grandmother the Queen died, sources claimed Kate acts as a “peacemaker” between the brothers.

Last year Harry claimed his brother “knocked him to the floor” during an argument about Meghan.

In his book Spare, Harry said William branded Meghan “rude” and “difficult” during a row.

Harry alleged William “grabbed me by the collar, ripping my necklace, and … knocked me to the floor”.

He said he was left with a visible injury to his back following the argument in 2019 at Nottingham Cottage on the grounds of Kensington Palace, where he was living at the time.

In January this year, Harry flew in to be with Charles after the monarch’s shock cancer diagnosis.

Harry flew back to the US the following day – without seeing Wills.
