Following a series of health setbacks, royal followers are wondering if Prince Harry is visiting the Queen anytime soon. Though Harry will attend The Invictus Games in the Netherlands, one royal expert believes it is very unlikely that the red-headed former royal will visit his home country to see the Queen after she dropped out of her family’s Easter Sunday celebrations.

He never ate lunch, and breakfasted on the same birdseed and peeled fruit every morning."Punctuality had never been Camilla’s strong suit, but Charles expected her to be ready for engagements at his own regimented pace.
