Prince Harry is expected to be coming back to the UK soon, after his sister-in-law, the Princess of Wales, announced she had been diagnosed with cancer.

But while many would have hoped the devastating news could pave the way for a possible path to reconciliation between the estranged Duke of Sussex and his older brother, Prince William, sources close to the Waleses suggest otherwise, according to reports.

Harry is expected to attend a service at St Paul’s Cathedral to mark the tenth anniversary of the Invictus Games in May, and after losing his legal battle against the Government over his police protection in the country, it is highly unlikely he'll be bringing his wife, Meghan Markle or their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, the Telegraph reports.

Sources close to the Prince and Princess of Wales have made clear that the "Harry problem" is the last thing on their minds as they now have much bigger concerns requiring their full attention.

Meanwhile, another source told the publication last weekend that William "has always done all he can to protect his family", with insiders dismissing any suggestions the heir to the throne and his family would be willing to find the mental capacity to face the estranged duke.
