PRINCE Harry arrived back in the US in time for his son's birthday after rushing home from his father's coronation.
The Duke of Sussex arrived at Los Angeles International Airport at around 7.30pm local time – 3.30am UK – after spending just 28 hours in the UK.
He was in a race against the clock to make it back for his son Archie's birthday.
While Harry watched his father be crowned King, Prince Archie spent the day with his mother, the Duchess of Sussex, at their US home.
Harry left behind his father and other royals at London's Westminster Abbey at around 1.15pm.
He hopped into a blacked-out electric BMW and was whizzed 20 miles to Heathrow, arriving by police convoy around 2.05pm.
