Prince Harry has made quite a few visits to the UK in the past five years, with many of his trips for work commitments rather than for personal reasons. The royal, 40, did attend King Charles's coronation back in May 2023, with his visit lasting less than 24 hours.

Peter Phillips, as Princess Anne's only son, is Harry's cousin. Just four years after his divorce from Autumn Kelly, Peter announced his engagement to Harriet Sperling last week. On August 1, a statement issued for the couple by Gerard Franklin, read: "Mr Peter Phillips, the son of HRH The Princess Royal and Captain Mark Phillips and Ms Harriet Sperling, daughter of the late Mr Rupert Sanders and Mrs Mary Sanders of Gloucestershire, have today confirmed their official engagement."

The official statement confirmed: "Both families were informed jointly of the announcement and were delighted with the wonderful news of their engagement.

"Their Majesties The King and Queen, The Prince and Princess of Wales have been informed of the announcement. No date has been officially set for the wedding."

Although a date for their wedding is yet to be revealed, it is sure to be a family affair with many members of the Royal Family in attendance.

Appearing alongside her now-fiancΓ©e, Harriet made her royal debut at the Badminton Horse Trials last May.

The couple have since been pictured on numerous occasions, even seen chatting to the King and Queen. One of their most recent public appearances was at Prince William's charity polo match.

Peter shares two daughters - Savannah, 14, and 13-year-old Isla - with his ex-wife Autumn. Harriet is a mum to a daughter, born in 2012, from a previous marriage.

After marrying in 2008, Peter and Autumn confirmed their separation in February 2020, with their divorce settled in June 2021. It's understood that Autumn remained living in Gloucestershire, so that she and Peter can co-parent their two daughters.
