Prince Harry, the patron of WellChild Awards, is set to return to the United Kingdom on September 30 to attend the event’s 2024 edition. However, the organizers have yet to confirm that his wife Meghan Markle and his children Archie and Lilibet will join the Duke of Sussex during his homecoming.
“I am once again honoured to attend this year’s WellChild awards celebrating the remarkable courage and achievements of children living with complex medical needs, the Duke of Sussex said while announcing his presence during the event.
The charity, which has been a key focus of Prince Harry even after he moved to California in 2020, holds the event annually to celebrate children who are living with serious illnesses.
Several times the Duke has expressed his deep pride in supporting such a vital cause.
“These incredible young people, along with the dedicated caregivers, nurses, and professionals who tirelessly support them, inspire us all. It is a true privilege to recognise such extraordinary individuals.”
According to some royal experts, Prince Harry regularly attends the event and interacts directly with the children and their caregivers. This year, the prince is expected to spend some time with the award winners and their families ahead of the event.
It is important to note that the Duke of Sussex will present the Wellchild Awards 2024 for Inspirational Child (4-6 years) category.
According to reports, it remains uncertain whether the prince will meet with his father, King Charles and his estranged brother, Prince William, during his UK amid ongoing family tensions. The relationship between the feuding royals seems to be easing up as the Royal Family wished a happy birthday to the Duke of Sussex on his 40th birthday on social media.
