Prince Harry returns to California and skips Queen’s birthday

Prince Harry is back in sunny California after crossing the dam to attend the funeral of his grandfather, Prince Phillip, on Saturday.

The 36-year-old flew to Los Angeles on an American Airlines flight arriving Tuesday afternoon and was driven to his home in Montecito, California, according to The Daily Mail.

Harry’s American return means he will not be on hand to celebrate his grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II’s 95th birthday on Wednesday, as he had considered.

According to the article, the ‘conflicting’ prince considered it more important to return to his pregnant wife, Meghan Markle, and toddler.

Harry will now undergo a ten-day quarantine recommended by CDC for international travelers, reports the Mail.

The trip to England was Harry’s first return to his homeland in more than a year.

The royal repercussions came after the monarch told Oprah that he felt trapped by family, accusing him of being biased towards his wife and son, Archie.
