Prince Harry reunited with his father, King Charles, during a busy week of charity appearances in the U.K. Although Meghan Markle, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet stayed home in California for the trip, a friend of the Duke of Sussex said Harry has “not given up hope” on bringing them to England in the future. And when it came to his surprise trip to Kyiv, Ukraine on behalf of the Invictus Games Foundation on Friday, September 12, there were two parties Harry needed to consult.
“I had to check with my wife and the British government to make sure it was OK,” the Duke of Sussex told the Guardian. “Then the official invitation came.” Prince Harry was originally invited to Ukraine by Olga Rudnieva, who works with amputees at the Superhumans Trauma Centre in Lviv, where he’s previously visited. The duke explained that he ran into her in New York and asked “what I could do to help.”
