Princess Diana's sons will reunite next week at the Sunken Garden at Kensington Palace on what would have been their mother's 60th birthday.
It will be the first time the brothers have reunited since the Duke of Edinburgh's funeral at St George's Chapel in Windsor in April.
Prince William and Kate were seen walking alongside Harry after the moving service.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex moved to the US last year after stepping back from royal duties and welcomed their second child, Lilibet Diana Mountbatten-Windsor, on 4 June.
Harry is set to arrive in the UK imminently so that he can isolate for a minimum of five days, assuming he does the 'test to release' scheme. If not, he will need to isolate for ten days under UK government rules, as the United States is on the amber list.
