Buckingham Palace has confirmed that Prince William will be in Bristol on Thursday, January 22,  amid Prince Harry’s trip to Britain next week.

Meanwhile, the latest Kensington Palace announcement has apparently crushed the hopes of Prince William and his estranged brother’s reunion.

The Majesty Magazine shared the palace announcement on X, which reads, “The Prince of Wales will carry out engagements in Bristol next Thursday, 22nd January, showcasing the city’s trailblazing achievements in sustainability and its role as a driving force for innovation in the UK.”

Moreover, Buckingham Palace has confirmed Prince William’s major engagement on Harry’s visit.

The palace also said, “22 January 2026, the Prince of Wales, Founder and President, The Earthshot Prize, will visit Matter, Albert Rd, St Philip's, Bristol.”
