He returned with King Edward to England at the beginning of November. The prince, "who had the courage of a lion, took great delight that day in the fight". He replied that he could do nothing without knowing his father's will.

Arnaud Amanieu, Lord of Albret and many more were always ready to give what help they could to the French cause, and Gaston, Count of Foix, though he visited the prince on his first arrival, was thoroughly French at heart, and gave some trouble in 1365 by refusing to do homage for Bearn.
