Prince Harry is believed to already be en route to London after rushing to the airport to catch an urgent flight following the news of King Charles’ cancer diagnosis.
The Duke of Sussex, 39, has reportedly already taken off from LAX airport in Los Angeles as he heads to London to be by his father’s side, according to images obtained by The Sun.
Meanwhile, Meghan Markle will be staying put in Montecito, Calif., with their children Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.
A luxury Range Rover believed to belong to Harry’s entourage was seen arriving at LAX’s VIP terminal Monday night.
It’s reported that Harry will touch down in London around midday local time.
From there, he’s expected to be whisked away to see his father, who is beginning outpatient cancer treatment.
Charles is believed to be resting at Clarence House today, with Princess Beatrice and her husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi seen leaving this morning, according to Daily Mail.
It is not known where Harry will be staying during his time in the UK, as he no longer has an official royal residence on that side of the pond.
It is understood that flood warnings in California had previously delayed Harry’s travel plans.
The father of two now travels with his own security team, after his father famously stripped the Sussexes of their right to tax-funded police protection after they quit royal life in 2020.
The duke has been trying to win back UK security protection for his family ever since.
Harry was set to jet off to Canada with Markle next week ahead of the Invictus Games training camp.
It’s not yet known whether the Sussexes will go ahead with the trip, or pull the plug on it altogether.
Meanwhile, the royal family is still dealing with other health woes relating to Kate Middleton, who is still recovering from her abdominal surgery that took place last month.
The Princess of Wales will not be carrying out any royal engagements until after Easter.
To that end, Prince William announced his return to public engagements, revealing he will be stepping up on Wednesday as both his father and wife are out of action for the time being.
