Prince Harry is expected to make a visit to the UK this week, but it is understood that neither King Charles or Prince William will have time to meet him.
The Duke of Sussex will be returning to the UK for the annual WellChild Awards, a charity which celebrates the inspirational qualities of seriously ill children across the nation.
Harry has been a patron of the charity for 15 years, and will be attending the event on Thursday. This is a day prior to the one year anniversary of Queen Elizabeth's passing, but it appears Harry has no plans to reunite with his family.
It is understood that Harry was not invited to Balmoral over the summer, where the family have an annual holiday each year. The Prince has also had to return the keys to Frogmore Cottage, so it is unclear where he will be staying whilst in the UK.

It is also understood that Harry and William have not been in contact since the Duke released his autobiography Spare earlier this year.

Harry has spoken out about the royal family previously in his memoir and in his Netflix series 'Harry and Meghan', but appeared to criticise the family again during an interview.
Speaking in an interview for the Netflix show Heart of Invictus, a series about the Invictus Games which the Prince founded, Harry stated he had "no support structure" following the death of his mother, Princess Dianna, when he was just 12 years old.
The Prince stated: "The biggest struggle for me was no one around me really could help. I didn't have that support structure, that network, or that expert advice to identify what was actually going on with me."
Later this month the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are both expected to attend the closing ceremony of the Invictus Games in Düsseldorf, Germany. The pair will reportedly be entering the stage at the Merkur Spiel-Arena during the closing ceremony, and Harry will give a goodbye speech.
According to previous reports, the couple hope to use the Games as a "reset" in an effort to change the narrative after the release of Spare and their Netflix series.
