Harry arrives back in the UK amid chaos over no stay at Buckingham Palace

Britain’s Prince Harry has arrived in the UK, after the accommodation plans for his trip descended into chaos.

Harry made a U-turn and requested to stay for just one night at Buckingham Palace, only to be told he had accepted King Charles’ offer too late.

He was also told his presence could compromise his father’s constitutional position, with judgment due in Harry’s High Court case against Associated Newspapers on Tuesday.

Harry arrived back in the UK on Monday, his spokesman confirmed.

Harry’s spokesman earlier said it was “disappointing” the offer from Charles had been “withdrawn at the last moment”, with the legal fight given as the reason.

Questions have been raised on the Sussex side as to whether the offer of a bed at a royal residence was ever intended to be available once Harry had accepted it.

But is understood royal accommodation will be made available to Harry and his family for future visits.

Harry is believed to have arrived in London solo, without Meghan Markle and their children Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, after they pulled out of a visit to the capital because of security concerns.
