On September 15, Prince Harry will officially enter his 40s, and it seems he plans to celebrate in style. Specifically, the Duke of Sussex is set to spend his birthday with his family at his $14.7 million mansion in Montecito, California, where he lives with his beloved wife, Meghan Markle, and their two children, 5-year-old Prince Archie and 3-year-old Princess Lilibet.
However, the party for his 40th birthday won’t be limited to just one day. According to sources, Prince Harry wants to dedicate time to his friends as well, and that’s exactly what he plans to do. The weekend following his birthday, Harry and his friends will head to a mountain retreat for a brief getaway in the hills.
As Prince Harry approaches his 40th birthday in just four days, he seems far removed from his younger self. Gone are the endless parties of his youth, and now the Duke of Sussex simply wishes to be surrounded by those he loves and who love him. It’s worth noting that Harry hasn’t had an easy few years. His relationships with his family, particularly with his father, King Charles, and his brother, William, remain strained. This tension was evident last month when they attended the funeral of their uncle, Lord Robert Fellowes, in Snettisham, Norfolk, where the brothers reportedly did not exchange a word and kept their distance.
“William and Harry were both there, but we never saw them speak to each other and they kept their distance,” said some of those who attended the ceremony.
