Prince Harry to return to UK to promote book at Christmas

Prince Harry could come back to the United Kingdom before Christmas to promote his autobiography, which is due to be released on January 10. But the Duke of Sussex’s possible return to the UK will not be used as a chance to mend fences with the Royal Family, according to biographer Angela Levin. Ms Levin claimed Harry “turned down” an offer from the King to spend Christmas with his family at Sandringham.Speaking to Sky News Australia, Ms Levin said: “He’s sort of announced that he’s going to come to the UK and promote [his memoir.]”If the book is coming out January 10, he’s going to come before Christmas, isn’t he?”And that would really spoil everybody’s Christmas in the family. He’s just turned down the invitation to go to Sandringham – King Charles very much wanted the family to go to Sandringham cause that’s where the Queen liked the family to go.”And they will be thinking about her and telling funny stories about her and respecting her. He turned that down but he’ll go around promoting the book.
