Prince Harry Calls UK Return ‘Eventful’ as Royal Tensions Escalate
Harry said the first weeks back in Britain have been eventful as he praised the Invictus community and looked ahead to Birmingham 2027.
On Thursday, Prince Harry attended the inaugural Invictus Spirit Awards at the Old Royal Naval College in Greenwich, where the gala raised £1.7 million for the Invictus Games Foundation to support recovery programs for wounded service personnel.
The Duke of Sussex described his family's return to the United Kingdom three weeks ago as "eventful" after relocating from California with his wife, Meghan, and their two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.
Addressing 340 guests, Harry said, "It's wonderful to be back on British soil," and reflected on his 12-year journey with the Invictus community, calling the gala the culmination of "many weeks, many months and years in the making."
The family's transition faced security challenges with the school run reportedly straining their protection team, while King Charles III maintains the couple remain "private citizens" and are no longer working members of the Royal Family.
Birmingham will host the 2027 Invictus Games, serving as a homecoming for the tournament Harry founded in 2014 to support wounded and sick service personnel; he expressed enthusiasm as preparations continue.
