Prince Harry will to return to the UK for Prince Philip’s funeral

A source told The Post on Friday that Prince Harry is set to attend his grandfather Prince Philip's funeral in the UK, marking his first trip home after notably leaving the royal family.

However, it is unknown if Meghan Markle, who is heavily pregnant and due with the couple's second child in early summer, will accompany Harry, despite her desire to be by his side, according to the report.

Her ability to fly the nearly 12-hour flight from the Sussexes' California home to England will be contingent on her doctor's instructions and air carrier advice, according to the source.

But Harry will not miss the funeral of the Duke of Edinburgh for the world.

According to a UK royal source, “Harry was very close to his grandfather.” “Of course, he'll be there, no matter how strained ties are between the Sussexes and the family.”

Harry's anticipated return to his homeland comes after he and Markle separated from the royal family in January 2020 — and just weeks after their explosive interview with Oprah Winfrey, which shook Buckingham Palace.

Experts have recently begun to speculate about the prospect of Prince Harry returning to the United Kingdom for Prince Philip's funeral.

One of the most pressing issues for analysts is Meghan Markle's actual pregnancy status, as well as the release of her controversial Oprah podcast, which coincides with Prince Philip's last hospital visit.

Given the media uproar, many observers believe Meghan would be “booed off the streets” if she again sets foot on British soil.

A royal observer also revealed a chat Prince Harry had with his family in March, prior to Prince Philip's hospitalization, and confessed he was “advised to fly home right now to say goodbye to his grandfather,” but “who knows if he will listen.”

“There are lots of discussions about what to do with the problem of Meghan (Markle) and Harry” and officials are wondering “where to seat them and how to protect them from the British public who may boo them.”
