King Charles lands in Italy for historic State Visit as Prince Harry returns to the UK

Royal Arrivals

King Charles arrived in Italy for a significant State Visit just hours after Prince Harry flew back to the UK. It remains unclear if the Duke of Sussex had a chance to meet his father after landing on Sunday.

Legal Battle

Prince Harry's visit to the UK is not for leisure. He is here to continue a legal battle in an attempt to have taxpayers cover the costs for his armed guards, marking another chapter in the ongoing court case.

Official Engagements

Meanwhile, King Charles and Queen Camilla flew to Italy for a four-day visit filled with official engagements. British Ambassador to Italy, Edward Llewellyn, expressed that the royal visit will strengthen the bond between the two nations, highlighting their shared love for Italian culture, food, and heritage.

Court Appearance

It remains uncertain if Prince Harry will attend the Court of Appeal for the two-day hearing starting today. The legal battle, spanning over four years, has already cost taxpayers a hefty sum of £618,622 to defend.

Family Reunion?

Prince Harry has not had a face-to-face meeting with King Charles since the announcement of the King's battle with cancer in February last year, adding a familial dimension to the high-profile visits and legal proceedings.
