This upcoming visit will mark the first time Harry’s been to the UK since his sister-in-law Princess Catherine publicly announced she’d been diagnosed with cancer.
At this stage, it’s not known whether Harry will visit Catherine, Prince William and their children Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.

Harry participated in the Royal Salute Polo Challenge benefitting his charity Sentebale on April 15. Meghan was also there to cheer her husband on.
The annual Polo Cup has been running since 2010, and to date has raised over £11.4 million (roughly AU$22 million) to support Sentebale’s work with children and young people affected by poverty, inequality and HIV/AIDS in southern Africa.
In the evening, after the match, Harry and Meghan attended a sit down dinner and panel discussion hosted by Sentebale and Lebec.
Harry joined the panel, titled Potential is Waiting, and he and the other panel members discussed, according to a press release, how “capital can be creatively dispersed to help youth thrive and address critical global challenges — from Miami to Latin America, to Africa, which has the youngest and fastest growing population in the world.”
