Meghan Markle’s decision not to accompany Prince Harry on his upcoming visit to the UK says a lot about her “antipathy” towards the country, a royal expert has said.
The Duke of Sussex will appear at the Wellchild Awards in London on September 7, before travelling on to Düsseldorf in Germany for the start of the Invictus Games on September 9, where his wife will join him.
Despite accompanying Harry to the awards in 2018 and 2019, with him being patron of Wellchild for the last 15 years, the Duchess is unlikely to be there this year, which “says a lot” about how she feels about being in the UK, according to royal historian Dr Tessa Dunlop.
She told the Mirror: “Contrary to some predictions, Harry is now popping over to the UK en route to Düsseldorf, Germany, and the Invictus Games. As is the case with all things Sussex, his visit is already causing a stir.
“Crucially the timing means he’ll be in Britain on September 8, the first anniversary of the death of his grandmother, the late Queen.”
