Prince Harry Faces Accommodation Row at Buckingham Palace

Prince Harry has arrived in the UK, but his visit has been overshadowed by a fresh dispute with the royal family. Buckingham Palace has announced that the Duke of Sussex will not stay at the palace this week, despite his team previously claiming that an invitation had been accepted.

Palace sources say Harry did not respond to the accommodation offer in time. According to their version, Harry's team initially declined but changed their mind later the same day, making it too late to arrange the necessary staff and preparations.

Meanwhile, Prince Harry's representatives say the offer had been officially accepted but was later withdrawn at the last minute. They described the decision as disappointing. According to British media, the stay was only for one night, raising questions as to why the royal residence could not accommodate one person for such a short time.

The timing adds to the tension: on Tuesday, a court ruling is expected in Harry's case against the publisher of the Daily Mail. The palace reportedly was concerned about the optics of Harry commenting on a high-profile legal case while staying at the symbolic heart of the monarchy. Harry's team rejects this argument, saying the palace knew about the court date in advance.

The incident further highlights the deep distrust between Harry's team and Buckingham Palace. Both sides are publicly sharing different versions of events, and there is no sign of a resolution. The dispute may also complicate a possible meeting with King Charles. Harry still plans to attend several charity events and activities related to the Invictus Games.
