Prince Harry spent Queen’s 95th birthday ‘dining with LA philanthropist Wallis Annenberg’ at exclusive Hollywood club

PRINCE Harry reportedly dined with LA billionaire Wallis Annenberg at an exclusive Hollywood club on the Queen's 95th birthday after flying back to the US the day before.

The Duke of Sussex is said to have had lunch with the 81-year-old heiress and philanthropist at the exclusive San Vicente Bungalows - 24 hours after returning to LA to be with pregnant wife Meghan and son Archie.

Meanwhile, the Queen spent her 95th birthday alone as she mourns the death of husband Prince Philip.

Harry was expected to begin a 10-day quarantine in California - a Covid guideline which is not compulsory in the US - but was spotted by diners at the upmarket venue.

It is not known if the Duke of Sussex has received a Covid vaccination but this would excuse him from self-isolation.

A source : "They sat outside, far from other people, and Harry came in wearing a mask."

The club is favourite haunt of some of LA's richest and most influential people and has a strict ban on photographs and mobile phones to ensure privacy for its guests.

Wallis Annenberg is the daughter of late media tycoon Walter Annenberg and pours billions into projects linked to climate change and social justice.

Harry has previously spoken out about the 'humanitarian crisis' around climate change despite criticism of his own jet-setting lifestyle.

The Duke of Sussex returned to the US on Tuesday after five days in the UK for the funeral of his great-grandfather Prince Philip on Saturday.

He spent most of his trip in quarantine at Windsor’s Frogmore Cottage but did hold crunch talks with Prince Charles and Prince William over the fallout of his interview with Oprah Winfrey last month.

The face-to-face meeting was held on the grounds of Windsor Castle following the service for the Duke of Edinburgh over the weekend.

It marked the first time Harry had seen his family since the explosive Oprah interview.

During the TV chat screened around the world, Harry accused the Royal Family of racism and Meghan blasted William’s wife Kate.

Meghan, 39, was advised by her doctors not to travel to Britain for Philip’s funeral on Saturday.

During his time back in the UK, Harry paid tribute to his grandfather, saying he was “a man of service, honour and great humour” and also the “legend of banter”.

WHO IS WALLIS ANNENBERG?

WALLIS Annenberg is one of America's wealthiest women and pours billions into charities and other projects through the Annenberg Foundation.

Her favoured projects are often linked to climate change, animal welfare and social justice - all issues known to be close to Prince Harry's heart.

The billionaire's father Walter was a newspaper and magazine publisher who was a friend of Prince Charles and once hosted Prince Philip and the Queen at his Californian ranch in the 1980s.

He dies in 2002 and left a multi-billion dollar fortune.

The Annenberg Foundation has handed out more than $4.5bn in grants since its formation in 1989.

Philip's family and friends gathered at St George's Chapel at Windsor on Saturday to say their final farewell to the duke who died peacefully on April 9, aged 99.

His death came a few months short of his 100th birthday, which was due to be the focus of royal celebrations this year.
