Prince Harry ‘could face a telling off from the Queen’ amid concerns over his public comments about US politics as Palace staff ‘are told to prepare for his return to the UK within weeks’
- It is thought staff have been told to ready Frogmore Cottage for duke’s arrival
- Queen likely to meet him at Windsor after she returned to resume engagements
- But it comes as royal experts warned Harry had ‘burnt significant bridges’
Prince Harry could face a scolding by the Queen amid concerns over his public comments about US politics as royal staff prepare for him to return to the UK, according to reports.
It is thought that Palace staff have been told to ready Frogmore Cottage for the imminent return of the duke – without mention of Meghan Markle.
The Queen, 94, is likely to meet with Harry at her ‘HMS Bubble’ at Windsor after she returned in order to resume audiences and small engagements.
But his alleged visit comes after royal experts warned that Harry had been ‘burnt significant bridges beyond repair’ after he spoke out about the upcoming American election.

A source told The Sun: ‘Staff at Windsor have been told to prepare for the possibility Harry could come back.
‘They are told that it could be within weeks but Meghan’s name was not mentioned.
‘There are all sorts of issues to speak about — not only his political statements but also his visa situation in the US.
‘Even though he would have to isolate for two weeks, the estate is large enough for talks in a socially distanced way.’
The news of his return comes after Harry handed over a ‘substantial sum’ in order to pay rent and clear the bill for £2.4million taxpayer-funded renovations carried out on the couple’s UK home.

But one royal expert has claimed that Meghan and Harry, who now live in a $14million mansion in Santa Barbara, with their one-year-old son Archie, have ‘burnt significant bridges beyond repair’.
The couple appear to ‘not be bothered’ by their decision to leave the Firm and move to the US, Penny Junor wrote in the Mirror.
The biographer observed that while Prince Harry may improve his relationship with his brother Prince William – it’s unlikely Meghan will ever want to return to the institution.
She suggested the former actress, who has been vocal in recent weeks in urging Americans to vote, couldn’t achieve her desire to change the world while working as a senior member of the royal family.
‘In the past few months, Harry and Meghan have burnt some significant bridges that may be beyond repair,’ Penny said.
‘Right now, that doesn’t seem to bother them. And I can’t see Meghan ever wanting a way back. What she discovered in her brief spell as a working member, is the British royal family is no place for someone with political ambition.

‘This centuries-old institution provides an unparalleled platform for charitable work – to change and improve people’s lives – but it is not the springboard for changing the world – however burning and evident the need.’
However, Penny suggested that Harry doesn’t have the same political ambitions and instead his passion lies with helping disadvantaged people.
She added that it’s likely ‘he will find his way back’ one day.
It comes after Congressman Jason Smith of Missouri demanded that the British government ask the Queen to strip Meghan and Harry of their royal titles for ‘interfering’ in the upcoming American election – claiming they are using them to influence voters.
Harry, who has netted a £112million Netflix deal with Meghan, has now been in the US for more than 183 days, which means he could also be liable to pay tax there.
Representatives for Harry and Meghan have been approached for comment.
