Prince Harry was reportedly "desperate" to return to the UK for King Charles III coronation. Prince Harry reached out to his dad Charles multiple times ahead of returning next month for the historic event. Harry missed the RSVP for the event, but has confirmed he will attend. A source told The Sun: "Harry was desperate to come back for the Coronation and spend quality time with his family."

There is a "willingness and wanting to mend on both sides", sources have also said. Harry and Charles reportedly had a heart-to-heart over the phone as Harry confirmed he would head back to the UK for the coronation on May 6.

Charles "happy" with his son's decision and "understanding" of Meghan Markle - with whom Harry shares two children - staying behind. As well as the heart-to-heart, reports suggest The Duke made repeated attempts to contact Charles to discuss plans - but his father only had time for one conversation. A Palace spokesperson said: "Buckingham Palace is pleased to confirm that the Duke of Sussex will attend the Coronation Service at Westminster Abbey on May 6.

The Duchess of Sussex will remain in California with Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet." Close friend Omid Scobie added: "Expect it to be a fairly quick trip to the UK for Prince Harry, who will only be attending the coronation ceremony at Westminster Abbey." The Duchess of Sussex is set to stay in the US with her kids Archie and Lilibet. Speaking to ITV's Tom Bradby in January to plug Spare, Harry said: "I want a family, not an institution." He also claimed he wanted his father and brother "back".

Tensions have been flared between members of the Royal Family in the wake of Harry's bombshell memoir Spare, as well as his and Meghan's Netflix documentary.
