Prince Harry To Visit The United States In October, Cue Freak Out

Get ready!

Kensington Palace announced earlier this week that Prince Harry is visiting the United States at the end of October. HOORAY!

The prince will be stopping by Washington, D.C. to attend events related to the Invictus Games, a sporting event he started in 2014 for wounded, injured and sick service personnel. The next games will be held in Orlando, Florida in 2016, the palace said.

When Prince Harry previously visited D.C. in 2013, he caused quite the stir as congressional staffers packed the halls and even outdoor walkways to catch a glimpse.

The most recent royals to cross the pond were Prince Charles and his wife Camilla, who visited the U.S. back in March. The pair also toured D.C., meeting with President Obama and checking out the usual tourist hot spots, like the Lincoln Memorial and Mount Vernon.

Fingers crossed Prince George and Princess Charlotte come visit soon!
