The Spencer clan seems to be united behind Prince Harry. Count Charles Spencer and Lady Jane Fellowes, brother and sister of Lady Diana, were present yesterday at a service at St Paul’s Cathedral in London for the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games, a charity set up by Prince Harry in 2014. The youngest of Charles III, lonely by the king and other high-ranking members of the royal family, was at least able to count on his mother’s siblings.
Other members of the former Princess of Wales’ family also came to hear the Duke of Sussex, who gave a reading at the event, including her cousins George McCorquodale, Laura and Ned Spencer and Viscount Althorp, Louis Spencer. Several videos showed the Spencers walking up the steps of the building to attend the service.
Family support
In another video taken inside the cathedral, and relayed by https://twitter.com/SkyNews/status/1788310907526717754, the prince can be seen kissing and hugging his uncle and aunt before greeting other guests and sitting in front of them for the service. By his movements and his expression, we can see that the prince seems touched by the presence of his mother’s family.
A few kilometers away, his father hosted his very first garden party of the year, welcoming guests to the lawn of Buckingham Palace after having been away from the public for several months to undergo treatment for cancer.
“Busy” king’s schedule
Arriving in London last Tuesday, Prince Harry declared via his spokesperson that he would not see his father during his short visit to the country due to the latter’s “busy” schedule. “In response to numerous inquiries and ongoing speculation about whether the Duke will meet his father during his stay in the UK this week, this will unfortunately not be possible due to Her Majesty’s busy schedule,” it said. the press release.
It was also specified that the prince “understands his father’s agenda, his commitments and his other priorities” and “hopes to see him soon.” » As a consolation, he should soon reunite with Meghan Markle, who remained in California with their two children during her visit, for a trip to Nigeria, also in honor of the games.
