Prince Harry is due in court on Tuesday to give evidence as part of his case against Mirror Group Newspapers, after a no-show on Monday, and while he's here in the UK, there could be a chance for a special family meeting. The Duke of Sussex's cousin Princess Eugenie welcomed her newborn son Ernest into the world on 30 May, and so it seems Harry's trip is perfectly timed for him to meet the new arrival to the family. While many new mums don't like visitors in the first week or so, we know Prince Harry and Princess Eugenie have a very close bond and she has gone over to the US to visit him and his family on multiple occasions.
