- Prince Harry announced a trip to Canada taking place around the same time as Prince William’s royal tour of Brazil.
- There were inacurate claims that Harry was trying to upstage his brother.
- The Duke of Sussex’s spokesperson released a statement explaining that the events were planned “nearly a year ago.”
The royals are booked and busy! Prince William is currently on an official royal tour of Brazil, while Prince Harry recently announced a trip to Canada. And, naturally, some people are out here accusing Harry of trying to upstage his brother, which, nope!
In a statement to the Daily Mail, a spokesperson for Prince Harry explained that he is “not afforded the same level of security and protection as other working members of the Royal Family,” which means “that the period of time in which we can release details of events is much more truncated than it is for His Majesty the King or the Prince of Wales.”
They added that “The events were planned nearly a year ago. The date of the main event, the dinner, is set by the charity, not Prince Harry. The period of Remembrancetide traditionally extends from the 1-11 November and has done since 1918, over 100 years. He can’t choose to move those dates.”
They also stressed that “We are always guided—as to when we can announce trips like this, by the advice given to us by his private security advisers and the event’s security team. This visit, months in the planning, marks a return to a city that has a special place in the Duke’s heart, having played host to the Invictus Games back in 2017.”
The Daily Mail also notes that the royals were informed of Harry’s trip in advance—so the King was well aware!
