Where is Prince Harry staying in the UK?

Prince Harry's case was dismissed on Tuesday

Prince Harry is currently in the UK, but, following much back-and-forth earlier this week, he won't be staying at Buckingham Palace. 

So, where will the Duke of Sussex be staying while he's in town? Our homes editor, Rachel Avery, has taken a look at the options

It is likely that a discrete top-secret hotel will be arranged for Prince Harry for the duration of his time in London. 

However, he could also be staying outside of the city, Rachel explains. 

Harry and Meghan even resided in Oxfordshire for a little while, so maybe he wants a return to the peace and quiet of being outside of the capital. 

Whatever he decides on will need to remain highly confidential throughout his stay. Harry has repeatedly spoken of the security threats against him and has battled to reinstate his taxpayer-funded protection in court.

Good morning!

What a day we had yesterday, with the result of Prince Harry's court case against Associated Newspapers finally coming in. Our royal editor, Emily Nash, was on the scene and witnessed his reaction firsthand

He's back today, however, for private engagements linked to the Invictus Games after last night issuing a scathing statement about the result

We're also going to see King Charles for the first time since Harry's visit began. He will be joined by Princess Anne and the Duchess of Gloucester at a reception for recipients of the King's Award for Enterprise at St James's Palace. 

Otherwise, Princess Anne will attend the 50th anniversary awards dinner for the Royal Academy of Engineering at Raffles London. She will visit the Royal Motor Yacht Club and Citizens Advice Hart. Anne will open a new housing development in Stockbridge.
