Prince set to make another solo trip without his wife , it has been confirmed.

The is to return to the UK next month to attend court for his ongoing trial against the publishers of The Sun. The trial, which will take place at the High Court in London, will see Harry appear before the court for his case against News Group Newspapers (NGN), alongside former Labour deputy leader, Lord Tom Watson.

The two are suing the publisher over alleged unlawful information-gathering and invasion of privacy. When Harry comes to his home country, Meghan will remain at home with her children Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet. She has not been back on UK soil since September 2022 at the time of the late Queen's death.

It comes after a new report claimed that Meghan's once-close relationship with King Charles is virtually non-existent. A source claims that the pair have absolutely no contact now, and that a "sticking point" in Charles's relationship with Meghan and his youngest son Harry has been the Duke of Sussex's decision to launch legal action against the UK Government for removing his official police security, which is taxpayer funded.

"Harry's decision to sue the King's government in the King's courts is the sticking point, I am told," wrote Kate Mansey for . "Harry is challenging a decision by Ravec, the Royal and VIP Executive Committee, which decides what security is provided for the and other VIPs. The royal household is represented on the committee and would have had a seat at the table when the decision was made to remove Harry’s automatic right to police protection in Britain.

The expert also noted that, "it places the King in a tricky position because Harry has been granted leave to appeal. Until the case is concluded, there is little Charles feels he can say to his son. As for Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, there is no communication with the King and Queen."

This is a far cry from the warm relationship Charles and Meghan once shared, which Harry detailed extensively in his bombshell memoir Spare. According to Harry, when Meghan and Charles first met they got on well, and his father was "impressed" by Meghan when they first met

"We talked about acting and the arts generally. What a struggle it could be to make your way in such a trade, Pa said. He had a lot of questions about Meg's career, and he looked impressed by the way she answered. Her confidence, her intelligence, I thought, caught him unawares.

"And then our time was up. Pa and Camilla had another engagement. Royal life. Heavily regimented, overscheduled, so forth. I made a note to explain all this later to Meg. We all stood. Meg leaned towards Pa. I flinched; like Willy, Pa wasn't a hugger. Thankfully, she gave him a standard British cheek-to-cheek, which he actually seemed to enjoy. I walked Meg out of Clarence House, into those lush, fragrant gardens, feeling exultant. Well, that's that then, I thought. Welcome to the family."

Harry's return will come after Meghan launches her new series With Love, Meghan later this month. The eight-part series, which launches on January 15, sees Meghan inviting friends and famous guests to a California estate, where she shares cooking, and hosting tips.

It has been announced a day after she returned to for the first time since 2020. Actresses Mindy Kaling and former Suits star Abigail Spencer, plus chefs Roy Choi and Alice Waters are among the guests who appear on the 33-minute shows. Harry and Meghan’s Archewell Productions helped to make the series and she also gets a credit as one of its executive producers.
