Prince Harry snubbed by King Charles as he can no longer just visit his family

Earlier this year, King Charles decided to evict his son and daughter-in-law from Frogmore Cottage. As a result of this decision, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle no longer have a home in the UK.

This means that Prince Harry is very limited in the places he can stay when he visits his home country. The Duke of Sussex was recently in the UK for the WellChild Awards but was unable to stay at a royal residence for a particular reason.

So what are Prince Harry’s options when staying in the UK and how was he snubbed by his father King Charles?

As mentioned above, Prince Harry was in the UK for the WellChild Awards, his stay was very brief as the day after, he was flying to Dusseldorf for his Invictus Games, where Meghan joined him, a few days later.

As reported by Daily Mail, Prince Harry had requested to stay at Windsor Castle, so he could visit his grandmother’s, Queen Elizabeth’s resting place, on the 1 year anniversary of her death. However, the Duke’s request was denied on the grounds that no properties were available on such short notice.

Moreover, it is understood that Prince Harry was offered to stay at Balmoral with his father, King Charles, to commemorate the Queen’s death anniversary but the Duke’s busy schedule made this impossible.
