Prince Harry lands back in London this coming Wednesday but will not be staying at Buckingham Palace, reports suggest.
The Duke of Sussex will be in town for the Invictus Games 10-Year Anniversary reception to take place at St Paul’s Cathedral.
No other senior royals are expected to be attending the service.
While he is in the UK, it is thought the Duke of Sussex will be staying in a hotel, as he has done on previous occasions due to him no longer having a residence in this country.
Discussing this, Mark Dolan of GB News said: “I think Harry should be staying at Buckingham Palace. He should be a guest of honour.”

Dolan added that Harry and King Charles - who is undergoing cancer treatment - “should be spending many hours together” and the pair are expected to reunite.
When the Duke flew to London for one night in February to see his father after learning of his cancer diagnosis he stayed in a hotel in the capital, and will likely do the same again this time, according to reports.
Meghan Markle has not been back to the UK since the late Queen's funeral in September 2022, and they have only brought their children over once since their move to the US.

Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet joined their parents in the UK for the Platinum Jubilee celebrations in June of that year, with Lilibet also marking her first birthday at Frogmore Cottage.
It was the first and only time that Lilibet got to meet her great-grandmother, with King Charles still yet to be reunited with his youngest grandchildren since.
Harry is not expected to be staying in the UK long this time as he and Meghan have plans to visit Nigeria later in May, having been invited by the Chief of Defence staff.
Meghan has previously revealed in her podcast Archetypes that she has Nigerian ancestry and as such is keen to visit the country herself.
