Brutal two phrases present Queen Camilla will snub Prince Harry throughout UK go to
Queen Camilla may be “otherwise engaged” when Prince Harry returns to the UK next week for the Invictus Games 10th anniversary commemorative service on May 8.
These two words reveal exactly how the Queen feels about her husband’s youngest son, according to a source. Harry has invited other members of the Royal Family to the service, but it coincides with a Buckingham Palace garden party, making it unlikely that many will attend.
There’s a chance he could meet with King Charles, but the Queen isn’t eager to see her estranged stepson, an insider revealed.

A source told the Express: “Let’s just say that the Queen might be otherwise engaged. Although the King will have time in his diary for a brief visit, that hasn’t been confirmed yet due to the garden party schedule.
“Even if Harry does meet with his father, it is highly unlikely that Camilla will be in the same room.”
Harry last visited the UK in early February, rushing over for just one day after hearing that the King had cancer. The two had a short meeting at Clarence House in London, lasting less than 45 minutes.
The insider stated: “Harry did the right thing by flying over in February. But it was very much a last minute surprise and was somewhat forced upon the household.

“The optics wouldn’t have been good if a meeting didn’t take place at that time.”
It’s not anticipated the Duke of Sussex will linger in London for long, as he and Meghan Markle have a journey to Nigeria scheduled later in the month.
If he does manage to see his father, it will be a fleeting visit due to the King’s busy agenda, which includes his weekly meeting with the Prime Minister as well as the garden party.
The source elaborated: “Health permitting, the King is due to attend the garden party at Buckingham Palace on May 8. If a meeting with Harry were to take place it would have to be just before or after that. There won’t be any special arrangements made for a meeting, but one could be squeezed into plans already in place.”
Since his relocation to the US, the Duke has had a tense relationship with the rest of the Firm, with his and Meghan’s TV appearances and his book Spare further straining relations.
Meghan is now launching a new cooking and lifestyle programme in partnership with her new brand American Riviera Orchard, while Harry is creating a new series about competitive polo.
