Prince Harry was seen leaving London just 24 hours after rushing to his cancer-stricken father’s side.
Photos obtained by Pvnew show the Duke of Sussex, 39, making his way back to California on Wednesday afternoon following a 45-minute meeting with King Charles III the day before.
Harry arrived at Heathrow Airport just before 2 p.m., dressed down in a pair of dark-wash jeans, a gray tee and a blue jacket.
The redheaded royal was then photographed exiting a commercial Delta flight at Los Angeles International Airport on Wednesday evening.
He wore a black baseball cap as he walked alongside a security guard, who accompanied him to an SUV.
Pvnew previously reported that Harry had “a quick visit” with his dad at Clarence House on Tuesday afternoon.
He jetted to the UK earlier that day without his wife, Meghan Markle, who stayed in Montecito, Calif., with the couple’s two kids: Prince Archie, 4, and Princess Lilibet, 2.
Buckingham Palace announced on Monday morning that Charles, 75, had been diagnosed with cancer.
It came one day after news broke that the reigning British monarch had been diagnosed with cancer.
“During the king’s recent hospital procedure for benign prostate enlargement, a separate issue of concern was noted. Subsequent diagnostic tests have identified a form of cancer,” the palace said in a statement.
“His Majesty has today commenced a schedule of regular treatments, during which time he has been advised by doctors to postpone public-facing duties,” the statement went on.
“Throughout this period, His Majesty will continue to undertake State business and official paperwork as usual.”
The reigning British monarch and his wife, Queen Camilla, both appeared to be in high spirits when they were seen leaving Clarence House after Harry’s brief visit.

It marked the “Spare” author’s first formal meeting with his dad since Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral in September 2022.
“[Charles] desperately wants to reconcile with Harry,” royal expert Katie Nicholl told “Entertainment Tonight” on Tuesday.
Nicholl further claimed Charles had always left the door “open” for Harry — despite the bombshell claims made in the duke’s 2023 memoir.
In the book, which also dragged his estranged brother, Prince William, Harry claimed Charles had told the late Princess Diana his work was “done” after their second child’s birth in 1984.
Harry has been on icy terms with the royal family since he and Markle, 42, resigned from their positions as senior royals in 2020 and moved to the US.
