Rumors about Prince Harry's desire to return to his homeland seem never-ending. Contrary to many expectations, his last visit to the United Kingdom did not indicate such intent. The rebellious royal family member has no plans to change significantly.

Last week, Prince Harry made an unannounced visit overseas, though calling a flight to his native country "overseas" might be a slight exaggeration. The funeral of the uncle of the estranged brothers prompted his brief stay in the United Kingdom. The gentlemen did not even engage in a short conversation while attending the 82-year-old's final journey.

Despite still tense relations with close family members, speculation about Harry's imminent return to the British court has intensified recently. His old friends insist that he increasingly feels the lack of carefree pastimes with trusted friends, and he himself feels suffocated in his marriage to the controlling Meghan Markle. However, the truth turns out to be quite different.

Experts closely watching the royals insist that the 39-year-old's standing would improve if he remained faithful to family traditions passed down from generation to generation. Meanwhile, he does not focus on digging into the past. Contrary to appearances, he does not seem to regret the loud decision to move.

Prince Harry maintains contact with a select group of advisors with whom he collaborated while living in the United Kingdom. Sometimes, he turns to them for advice, but they, too, expressed surprise at the suggestion that William's brother would ever return to his former duties. Despite this, he shows an undisguised desire to meet with the father he hasn't seen in a long time.

The Duke of Sussex's schedule for the coming weeks is packed with numerous meetings. He is preparing for a trip to New York City as part of High-Level Week, opening the 79th session of the UN General Assembly. He is also working on new projects within the Archewell Foundation he runs with his wife, including developing a support group for parents whose children have fallen victim to cyber-attacks.
