Prince Harry left UK before Balcony moment?

Prince Harry, who was seen leaving West Minister Abbey soon after his father King Charles III's coronation, has reportedly returned to his family in California to attend his eldest son  Prince Archie's birthday.

The Duke of Sussex did not join his family members on the balcony at Buckingham Palace after King Charles III’s coronation Saturday because he is no longer a working royal.

Harry, who was relegated to the third row at the coronation, reportedly did not waste time and immediately traveled back to the US to reunite with his wife Meghan Markle and their Children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.

The palace confirmed on April 12 that Harry would attend his father’s crowning ceremony — without Markle and their two children, Prince Archie, 4, and Princess Lilibet, 1.

However, Harry was not allowed to have an official role in the coronation because he became a lowly commoner when he and the Duchess of Sussex, 41, notoriously shocked the world by giving up their royal responsibilities.

Harry and Andrew were seen leaving out of the Coronation Procession, reflecting their position as non-working members of the family as Buckingham Palace had earlier confirmed that they would not have any formal role at the event. They are no longer working royals.

Prince Harry stepped back as a working member of the Royal family in January 2020, before moving to America with his wife, the Duchess of Sussex. While, Andrew was effectively sacked as a working royal in January last year following the fall-out of his legal drama with Virginia Roberts Giuffre.
