Prince Harry will link up with his British relatives for an upcoming television tribute to Prince Philip, who died aged 99 in April, for the first time since his attending his grandfather's funeral at Windsor Castle. 

The highly-anticipated program, which will air on BBC later this month, will see the over twelve royals—including all four of the Queen’s children—come together for an hour of reminiscing on the late Duke of Edinburgh. The ‘historic tribute’ was originally commissioned in celebration of his 100th birthday in June, but will now be broadcast in honor of his incredible life and lasting legacy. 

Viewers can look forward to footage from the Queen’s private cine-film collection, as well as insightful interviews with Philip’s surviving family members and staff. 

BBC’s cameras have also been granted privileged access to the Duke’s private study, library, and office, which can be found on the first floor of Buckingham Palace. Philip’s personal quarters have never been shown to the public before, but have been described by royal writer Brian Hoey as ‘functional’ and ‘workmanlike’. 

“For the first time on television, more than a dozen members of the Royal family offer their personal thoughts and reflections as they pay an historic tribute to the extraordinary life of His Royal Highness Prince Philip Duke of Edinburgh,” the BBC said in a statement. 

Prince Philip’s death in April came as a devastating loss to the Royal Family, marking the loss of the longest-serving royal consort in the history of the British monarchy. His funeral was attended by just 30 guests due to COVID-19 restrictions, with Prince Harry flying home to London for the first time since his controversial emigration to the US with his wife Meghan Markle. The Duke of Sussex flew back to the UK again in July for Princess Diana's statue unveiling at Kensington Palace alongside Prince William but did not see his father, Prince Charles, during the visit.
