Prince Harry Evades the Press En Route to Meetings Meghan Markle Was Supposed to Attend During UK Trip
Key Points:
- Prince Harry is continuing with his planned U.K. visit from July 7 to July 11, focused on the one-year countdown to the 2027 Invictus Games, despite Meghan Markle and their children not accompanying him due to security concerns.
- On July 8, Harry visited the Royal Hospital Chelsea for private meetings related to the Invictus Games Foundation, entering discreetly to avoid media attention; Meghan was initially expected to join him.
- Meghan Markle, Prince Archie, and Princess Lilibet are not traveling to London with Harry but may join him later during his trip.
- Tensions arose before Harry’s arrival when an offer for royal accommodations from Buckingham Palace was reportedly accepted then withdrawn; the palace stated the offer was declined and later accepted by Harry's team, but by then accommodations were unavailable.
