The Duke and Duchess of Sussex<\/a> have accepted an offer to stay in a royal residence <\/a>during their visit to the UK<\/a> next month.<\/p>\n

It is understood that they will stay on both the royal<\/a> estate and private accommodation with their seven-year-old son, Archie<\/a>, and five-year-old daughter, Lilibet.<\/p>\n

They are expected to travel from California in July, which will be the family\u2019s first visit to the UK since Queen Elizabeth II\u2019s Platinum Jubilee celebrations in 2022.<\/p>\n

While it is not known what residence they will take up during their visit, Buckingham Palace has been suggested as a place they could use during previous potential trips. <\/p>\n

The trip will also be the first time Harry has seen his father, King Charles, in nine months after the two had tea at Clarence House in September.<\/p>\n

The stay at a royal residence will signal improving relations between the father and son, and will allow the King to see his grandchildren for the first time in four years.<\/p>\n

The Duke of Sussex is also planning to take his children to visit the grave of their grandmother, Princess Diana<\/a>, at Althorp House in Northamptonshire for the first time.<\/p>\n

The visit will mark the one-year countdown to Harry\u2019s Invictus Games, which is being hosted in Birmingham next July, and the family will participate in celebrations for the lead-up to the event.<\/p>\n

Prince Harry is in an ongoing legal battle <\/a>with the Home Office over security arrangements for him and his family while in the UK after his level of protection was downgraded when he stepped back from royal duties in 2020.<\/p>\n

The pair do not have a permanent home in the UK after they were asked to vacate Frogmore Cottage, a gift from the late Queen Elizabeth, in 2023 following the release of Prince Harry\u2019s damning memoir, Spare.<\/p>\n

After the duke lost a Court of Appeal challenge against the Home Office over his UK security arrangements last year, he told the BBC of his desire for \u201creconciliation\u201d with the royal family.<\/p>\n

\u201cI can\u2019t see a world in which I would be bringing my wife and children back to the UK at this point, and the things they’re going to miss is, well, everything,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou know I love my country, I always have done, despite what some people in the country have done.\u201d<\/p>\n
