Prince Harry back home in Montecito with Meghan and the kids after three-day dash to UK

Prince Harry is believed to be back home at his Montecito mansion after his whirlwind trip to the UK this week.

The Duke of Sussex is reported to have spent the three nights of his visit at Frogmore Cottage - but didn’t see any of his family who live very close by.

He is said to have landed back in the US on Thursday evening, so would have left around lunchtime yesterday.

Harry headed over to the UK for a court appearance after the second birthday of his daughter Princess Lillibet on Sunday. This was the second flying visit Harry has made home in the past few months, after his brief appearance at the Coronation of his father, King Charles, on May 6.

Coincidentally, that too came at the same time as one of his children’s birthdays, this time Prince Archie, who celebrated his fourth birthday on the same day his grandfather was officially crowned monarch.

The Telegraph reports that it was his and Meghan’s former home Frogmore in which he stayed while he was here this week, meaning it could be the last time he gets a chance to spend the night there, as the couple were evicted from the property earlier this year.

Harry’s brother William has been attending a number of high profile events this week across the country with wife Kate. The Prince and Princess of Wales’ Adelaide Cottage is close by to Frogmore but the siblings are not thought to have met up. Charles was at Buckingham Palace on Tuesday while Harry was still in the country, as he held a military event to thank servicemen.

Earlier we reported of a special birthday gift which took pride of place amongst Prince Archie’s haul in May has been revealed by his mum and dad.

The youngster stayed at home with his mother and his sister Princess Lillibet, and a party was organised at the family's California mansion to mark the occasion.

The Duke of Sussex managed to get back to California in time to enjoy a bit of the celebrations for Archie. And now it’s been revealed just what some of those celebrations entailed, as we learn that the young prince was gifted a bike that was hand delivered with balloons tied to its handlebars, as well as a card and some flowers for former Suits actress Meghan.

The present came from the British owner of a bike shop based in the plush neighbourhood Harry and Meghan call home. Jennifer Blevins, who owns the Mad Dogs and Englishmen store with her English partner Martin, got up extra early on May 6 and had the spontaneous thought to get a gift to the royal on his and his grandad's big day.

Jennifer told People : "He went and he got one of our little specialised kids' bikes — they're really nice little bikes — and he's like, ‘This one's perfect, it's got training wheels.'

"And so he went and got some birthday balloons, and he got some flowers for Meghan and a birthday card, and he said, ‘Okay, I'm gonna bike over and take it to their house.’”

Harry and Meghan sent a sweet thank-you note to the couple to show their gratitude for the sweet gesture.
