Prince Harry plans to bring his children, Archie and Lilibet, to the UK next month for a rare family visit. This will be their first trip back to Britain in over four years, according to reports from multiple outlets including The Daily Telegraph, The Guardian, UPI, and Sky News.

Harry's visit coincides with promoting the one-year countdown to the 2027 Invictus Games for injured servicemen, which will be held in Birmingham. The Duke of Sussex has been assured that adequate security provisions will be in place during his stay, though details remain undisclosed according to The Daily Telegraph.

King Charles III is expected to meet with Harry and his family privately if they visit the UK together in mid-July as per royal experts quoted by The Daily Mail. However, Queen Camilla may find an excuse not to attend any meetings. Prince William and Princess Catherine are also unlikely to be present during these reunions according to royal expert Phil Dampier.

Harry's last visit to the UK was in September of last year when he met with King Charles for a private tea at Clarence House. This meeting marked a step towards repairing their strained relationship after Harry's public criticisms of the Royal Family through his memoir Spare, Netflix documentary, and Oprah Winfrey interview.

The Sussexes' visit comes amid ongoing discussions about security arrangements. While Harry has been granted a full risk assessment by the royal and VIP executive committee (Ravec), no final decision on enhanced security protection for their private family visit has been made public as reported by Reuters. The last time Archie and Lilibet were in Britain was during Queen Elizabeth II's Platinum Jubilee celebrations in 2022.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have been offered accommodation on the royal estate for their upcoming trip, but have yet to respond. This offer represents a significant step in the relationship between King Charles and his son, providing an opportunity for the King to reconnect with his grandchildren according to Sky News.
