Meghan Markle flies to UK to join Prince Harry but skips public appearance

Meghan Markle is traveling to the United Kingdom to be with her husband, Prince Harry, who is in the country to launch the upcoming Invictus Games. She has decided not to appear in public, citing frustration over the lack of government‑provided security and the denial of accommodation at Buckingham Palace.

The duchess also faces the backdrop of a recent court ruling against Harry in his privacy lawsuit against the Daily Mail, which could cost him up to €50 million. Meghan’s visit is said to be motivated in part by a desire to reunite their children, Archie and Lilibet, with their grandfather, King Charles III, who has not seen them for several years. She may travel with private security, and she will not take part in the Birmingham countdown event for the 2027 Invictus Games.
