A chilled-out lunch between royals
In a few weeks' time, the Duke of Sussex, who has just welcomed his second child with Meghan Markle, is expected to set foot in the UK once again, to unveil a statue of Princess Diana, displayed in the Sunken Garden on the outskirts of Kensington Palace, on what should have been her 60th birthday.
It was an opportunity for Prince Harry to reunite with his older brother Prince William, with whom strife has never been this intense. Queen Elizabeth II, who no longer has the opportunity to see Prince Harry as regularly as she used to, wanted to sit down with him to talk about the wounds of the past.
The Queen's generosity

Prince Harry, meanwhile, was keen to pay tribute to his grandmother by naming his daughter Lilibet, the nickname given to Queen Elizabeth when she was younger. The Duke of Sussex, who cleared the Queen of all suspicion when allegations of racism by a member of the Crown were made, said the gesture was a testament to his affection for his grandmother.
