Prince Harry has made his return to the UK but he will not be meeting with father King Charles nor possibly Prince William on this three day trip.
Harry is in town for the Invictus Games event at St Paul's Cathedral celebrating the 10 year anniversary of the games, happening tomorrow, May 8. But before that, on May 7, he was seen at the Honourable Artillery Company's headquarters for a one-day summit, called the Invictus Games Foundation Conversation: "Realising A Global Community’" The international sporting competition was founded by the Prince to highlight servicemen and woman both serving and veterans.
This trip to the UK is Harry 's last trip since he rushed back home to see the King after his cancer diagnosis. Many thought and hoped the royal family and Harry might reunite during this trip.

The Duke of course is understanding of his father's diary of commitments and various other priorities and hopes to see him soon."
At the Invictus Games Foundation Conversation, body language expert Judi James examined the photos and suggested Harry has "feelings of isolation" even though he is showing a happy front at today's event.

"This is a confident, splayed-leg, knee-bent walk from Harry who, with his chin raised and an eye-smile that suggests some delight at all the royal-looking fuss here, appears more than happy to enjoy a reception that involves some sort of a military parade for him to inspect as well as a warm, bicep-grabbing man hug reception from his hosts," she said.

"His emotional leakage signals, though, suggest where his thoughts might lie here though and even hint that the jauntiness is prompted by bravado," Judi added.
"As he brings his hands up in a barrier ritual, he is fiddling with his wedding ring with not one but two fingers. This is a self-comfort gesture that would suggest feelings of isolation and a desire for a back-up team from home," Judi concluded about the Duke who came back to the UK solo without wife Meghan Markle and children Archie and Lilibet for these events. And now he is not going to see his other family members nor will they be at the celebration tomorrow.
Prince William is not set to be at the celebration tomorrow or see Harry in general, according to sources. An insider told The Mirror's Royal Editor Russel Myers: "Their relationship remains extremely fractured. Harry has privately expressed a wish to sit down with his brother but now is not the time."
After the anniversary event, Harry will be jetsetting to Nigeria to join Meghan as they accepted an invitation from the Chief of Defense Staff, the highest-ranking military official. The visit is reported to be about the Invictus Games which Nigeria entered last year in Düsseldorf, Germany for the first time.
