It is a moment that leaves room for speculation. A Royal returns to London, while almost simultaneously, two others leave the country. Coincidence - or another quiet sign of how deep the rift within the family has become?
When Prince Harry is expected in London next week, his brother Prince William and his wife Princess Kate will already be several hundred kilometers away. The couple will be traveling to Scotland starting Tuesday, where official appointments in Stirling are on their agenda. A personal meeting, thus, seems once again off the table.
Harry is not traveling for private reasons, but for an important court date. He is to testify again in a civil lawsuit against the publisher Associated Newspapers, which publishes the "Daily Mail" among others. The accusation: unlawful information gathering. Co-plaintiffs include prominent names like Elton John and Liz Hurley.
