Prince Harry will not be returning to the UK for the Service of Thanksgiving for the life of Prince Philip on March 29, said a spokesperson for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex on Friday.
According to the spokesperson, the Duke hopes to visit the Queen as soon as possible.
Commenting on his decision, royal expert Richard Eden said, "One other sad outcome of Prince Harry's refusal to visit his homeland is that he hasn't seen his mentor and 'second father' Mark Dyer, who's spent more than six weeks in hospital fighting cancer."
He said the former army officer Dyer underwent 14 hours of surgery last week.
No reason for the Harry's decision was given by the couple's spokesperson.
Harry is currently involved in a legal battle with UK's Home Department to seek review of its decision to allow him to pay for his security during his visits to the United Kingdom.
Harry and his wife Meghan Markle are living in California after stepping down from their royal duties.
