Buckingham Palace Denies Prince Harry Stay

Buckingham Palace denied reports on July 6, 2026, that Prince Harry had accepted an invitation to stay at the royal residence during his upcoming visit to the UK. The denial came shortly after initial reports suggested the Duke of Sussex would be welcomed at Buckingham Palace. This situation marks the latest in a series of disputes between Prince Harry and his family.

Prince Harry is scheduled to visit London and Birmingham for charity engagements, including promoting the Invictus Games. The buildup to this trip has been significantly overshadowed by a security dispute with the government. A spokesperson for Prince Harry stated on Sunday that Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, and their children would not accompany him to London but might join him later when he travels to Birmingham.

The controversy surrounding his accommodation and security highlights ongoing tensions between the Duke of Sussex and the royal family. The brief period of reported peace has been interrupted by this public disagreement over his lodging arrangements.
