The Duke of Sussex, Prince Harry, loves his home country and never leaves an excuse to come back. Now, the royal father-of-two is heading to the United Kingdom to visit with a cause close to his heart. He recently opened up and spoke about his highly anticipated return to Britain for the WellChild Awards later this month. Keep scrolling to find all the details of the event.
Prince Harry will be attending the 2024 WellChild Awards on September 30 in his role as the charity’s patron. This UK charity for seriously ill kids is one of the few causes that the Duke kept after stepping down from the duties of a senior royal working member in 2020. While discussing the same, Harry in a statement said, he is ‘honoured’ to celebrate “the remarkable courage and achievements of children living with complex medical needs.”
He also gave a shout out to dedicated nurses, caregivers and professionals to support the cause and inspire everyone. “It is a true privilege to recognize such extraordinary individuals,” he stated. The WellChild Awards honours the courage of kids battling with serious health issues and the support of their caregivers. This organisation has been very close to Harry for the last 16 years.

This year’s event holds a particularly personal significance for the Duke as he will be presenting the award for Inspirational Child (aged 4-6), a category that hits close to home considering his own son is just five years old. Now that Harry is visiting Britain, it still remains uncertain if he will meet his father and brother. Royal fans know that their relationship has been strained ever since Harry moved across the pond with his family.
However, things are starting to change a bit since King Charles and William publicly acknowledged the Duke’s 40th birthday on their respective social media platforms. The last time Meghan’s husband was in the UK was for his uncle’s funeral earlier this month. Will this time be any different? Only time will tell.
