Prince Harry rushed back to the US as the Duke of Sussex yet again executed a whirlwind trip to the UK.

The Prince of Wales and the Duke of Sussex both attend their uncle Lord Fellows' funeral in Norfolk on Wednesday.


The royals were both seen at St Mary’s Church in Snettisham, to support their aunt and the wider Spencer family.

Lord Fellows married Lady Jane Spencer, Princess Diana's sister, and served as the late Queen's private secretary.

Sources close to the Duke of Sussex had previously indicated he would not travel back to the UK for the event due to security fears.

However, a family friend confirmed to The Sun that both brothers were in attendance, saying: "very happy to confirm both princes were there".

Another source said: "William and Harry were both there but we never saw them speak to each other and they were keeping their distance."

The Duke of Sussex is already back in the US as he continued a trend of executing whirlwind trips to the UK.

In February 2024, Harry flew to London to see his father following his cancer diagnosis.

Prince Harry met with King Charles at Clarence House and spent 45 minutes with the monarch.

The Duke of Sussex then jetted out of the UK the next day having spent just over 24 hours in the country of his birth.

Harry returned to the UK in May to attend an Invictus Games anniversary event at St Paul's Cathedral.

No members of the Royal Family supported Harry at the event but members of the Spencers did attend.

During his most recent trip to the UK, Harry issued a statement confirming he was unable to see King Charles as the monarch's diary was full of engagements.

Prince Harry recently said he does not feel it is safe to bring his wife Meghan Markle to the UK.

The Duchess of Sussex has not returned to England since Queen Elizabeth II's funeral in September 2022.
