Prince Harry participated in a public wreath-laying ceremony at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at Arlington National Cemetery on Wednesday. He also paid his respects at the gravesites of service members and met with their families, the cemetery posted on Facebook.
The Arlington visit coincided with news that Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle, are moving back to the United Kingdom.
The couple gave up their royal duties and moved to Montecito, California, more than six years ago. Though they are moving back to the U.K. for an extended stay, they will not resume official royal family duties, the Associated Press reported.
The couple’s children, Prince Archie, 7, and Princess Lilibet, 5, are enrolled at British schools and will start classes in September. The family plans to live at a private residence outside of London. They will maintain their home in California and their vacation property in Portugal, according to AP.
Harry has recently expressed interest in reconciling with his father, King Charles III, who is being treated for cancer. Charles was recently informed of the couple’s plans to move to the U.K., AP reported.
