Harry, the meeting with “ally” Eugenie (awaiting the funeral of Prince Philip)

When the principe Harry has landed in Heathrow, Sunday afternoon, many believed that he was going to Nottingham Cottage, within Kensington Palace, to spend the 5 days of preventive quarantine before the funeral of Prince Philip. Thus – wrote the tabloids – he would regain possession of his old apartment, currently empty, and would be a stone’s throw from the brother William.
