Ahead of Prince Harry’s trip to the UK in May, it is reportedly yet to be decided whether his wife Meghan, Duchess of Sussex and their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet will make the trip.
Security “deliberations” are being discussed to determine whether the entire family will travel back to the UK for the first time since June 2022.
But if Harry is to travel solo, he has no plans to reunite with his older brother Prince William and sister-in-law Catherine, Princess of Wales, according to a new report.

Catherine is currently undergoing “preventative chemotherapy” after confirming her cancer diagnosis in March.
Harry is returning to the UK for a service at St Paul’s Cathedral on May 8 to mark the 10th anniversary of Harry’s Invictus Games.
Harry founded the initiative in 2014 to give injured or sick military personnel and veterans the chance to compete in sporting events similar to the Paralympics.

While in the UK, the Duke of Sussex may also appear at the British Book Awards on May 13, with his memoir Spare nominated in two categories.
There is no confirmation on whether Harry will be meeting members of his extended family.
His father King Charles is also currently undergoing treatment, diagnosed with a form of cancer after surgery in January treating an enlarged prostate.
While a reunion between the former “fab four” looks unlikely, a source has stated that if Archie and Lilibet make the trip, a meeting could take place “solely for the children’s sake”.
“William and Kate are very consciously focusing on positivity and recovery,” a source told OK! Magazine.
“Harry is due in London early next month, but there are no plans as of yet to meet with him while he’s over.”
The source added that William “won’t meet Harry” while he is in the UK because of a “very personal reason”.
“He’s reached out and sent best wishes, but a meeting might be a little premature.”
A previous report stated that Harry hopes for his children to build a relationship with their three cousins, Prince George, 10, Princess Charlotte, 8 and Prince Louis, 5.
“Harry would love for Archie and Lilibet to have a better relationship with their cousins or even the children of some of his friends,” a source told New Magazine.
“He feels like they have been away from the UK for far too long and wants to start building a life here. Not full-time, but a second home they can visit regularly.”
Harry and Meghan left the UK for the US in 2020 after stepping back as working royals.
