Prince Harry is believed to be planning his return to the UK after the death of his grandfather, Prince Philip

The Duke of Sussex, 36, is said to be keen to be ‘there for his family’ during their period of mourning.

However, Meghan Markle may remain behind in the US if it’s not safe for her to travel so late on in her pregnancy, reports claim.

A Royal source told the Daily Mail: “Harry will absolutely do his utmost to get back to the UK and be with his family.

“He will want nothing more than to be there for his family, and particularly his grandmother, during this awful time.

“Meghan is obviously pregnant so she will need to take advice from her doctors about whether it is safe for her to travel, but I think Harry will definitely go.”

Earlier this morning, Prince Philip ‘passed away peacefully’ at Windsor Castle.

The Royal Family confirmed the sad news in a statement.

It read: “It is with deep sorrow that Her Majesty The Queen announces the death of her beloved husband, His Royal Highness The Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh.

“His Royal Highness passed away peacefully this morning at Windsor Castle.

“Further announcements will be made in due course.

“The Royal Family join with people around the world in mourning his loss.”
