Shortly before Prince Harry’s trip to Great Britain, the Duchess of Kent died. The 40-year-old is said to have complained privately.
Prince Harry (40) is said to have sent his condolences privately to the family of the deceased after the death of Katharine, the Duchess of Kent (1933-2025). The US magazine “People” reports. It is not known whether he will also take part in the funeral. It could fit in time: because Harry will soon be expected in his British homeland. On Monday, September 8th, he will be present at the awarding of Awards in London. The date falls on the third day of his grandmother’s death, Queen Elizabeth II (1926-2022).
Katharine was the oldest member of the royal family and connected to Diana
On September 5, the Buckingham Palace announced the death of the Duchess. The evening before, “she died peacefully in the Kensington Palace with her family,” it said in a explanation. The 92-year-old was the oldest member of the royal family after the queen died. She was married to Edward (89), the Duke of Kent, a cousin of Elizabeth II. The couple has three children.
In recent years, it rarely appeared publicly on royal dates. In 2018 she visited Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan (44). “The king and the queen as well as all members of the royal family mourn together with the Duke of Kent, his children and grandchildren for their loss and lovingly remember the lifelong devotion of the Duchess for all organizations with which she was connected, her passion for music and empathy for young people,” said the palace.
Harry should stay in the hotel at his own expense
How, Harry should travel from his adopted home of California to Great Britain for four days in the coming week. It is still unclear whether he was also on the occasion of his father, King Charles III. (76), will meet. The monarch is in the Scottish Balmoral, where he will spend the rest of the September. According to sources, Harry did not receive an invitation for a visit – and he shouldn’t live in royal accommodation either. Instead, he will stay in a hotel at his own expense.
The Wellchild Awards, who celebrate their 20th anniversary in 2025, appreciate seriously ill children and the commitment of their families and nurses. Prince Harry has been the patron of the charity since 2007. Harry traditionally presents a prize in the wellchild of Awards and gives a speech.
It is unclear whether he will also take part in the funeral of Duchess Katharine in the course of his visit to his UK visit. No date has yet been announced for the funeral service. One thing is certain: The deceased was friends with Harry’s beloved mother Princess Diana (1961-1997) and acted as her mentor when she married the royal family.
