The Duke of Sussex reunited with the Queen while passing through the UK on their route to the 2022 Invictus Games in the Netherlands with Meghan Markle.
Prince Harry Reveals What It Feels Like to Meet Queen Elizabeth
According to their press office, the couple paid a covert visit to the Queen at Windsor Castle, the monarch's primary home. They are also claimed to have met Harry's father, Prince Charles, during the trip. Harry himself has disclosed the moments spent between Prince Harry and Queen Elizabeth, and they are all quite wonderful. The Duke expressed his delight at having met Her Majesty.
As per OK!, while speaking to the BBC about the Invictus Games, Prince Harry revealed his and Meghan Markle's visit to the Queen. The Duke of Sussex is believed to have informed them that seeing Her Majesty was amazing.
The visit happened almost a year after Prince Philip's burial, which is thought to be the last time Prince Harry saw the Queen and the rest of the Royal Family. It's fantastic to believe they had a "great" encounter this year, and some have even said Prince Harry offered an olive branch to them. As reported by The Sun, a source told them that the Queen's grandson instigated the whole thing and that the Sussexes also saw Prince Charles.
The monarch has yet to meet Lilibet Mountbatten-Windsor, but it is expected to happen in the coming months since they are both expected to attend the Queen's Platinum Jubilee 2022 festivities in June. Fans may be able to watch the Sussex family join their relatives on the Buckingham Palace balcony to commemorate the Queen's incredible 70-year reign if they fly over for the event.
Meghan Markle Flies Back to LA
It was Prince Harry's first meeting with the Queen since Prince Philip's funeral last year and Meghan Markle's first since the pair relocated to the United States to start their new lives. The couple, who have two children, Archie, who is almost three, and Lily, who will turn one in June, visited with Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall.
Since landing in The Hague on Friday, the pair has had a successful week, but Prince Harry is now flying alone when Meghan returned to Los Angeles on Monday. It's no surprise that the 40-year-old hasn't stayed with Harry until the Games leave at the end of the week since she admitted on day two that she misses her children.
Meghan Markle made the admission while sitting in on a private event in the Zuiderpark, where she was listening to reading to a group of 12 youngsters.
She told British army veteran James Stride that she wanted to go to the reading because it meant she'd be around kids, and they reminded her of her own, who had stayed behind in Montecito with her mother, Doria Ragland. The journey to Europe is believed to be the couple's longest separation from Archie and Lili, Hello Magazine reported.
