Prince Harry and Meghan Markle make first UK appearance in Nottingham
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, made their first joint public appearance in the United Kingdom since returning from California in August 2026. The couple visited Nottingham, a location of sentimental value as it was the site of their first official public engagement following their engagement announcement in 2017.
During the visit, the couple engaged with several charitable organizations. They visited the Community Recording Studio (CRS), a youth organization focused on music and personal development, which has received significant financial support from Prince Harry. They also visited Himmah, a community action group working to combat food insecurity, where they participated in cooking workshops and food parcel packaging.
While the couple was greeted by enthusiastic crowds and fans in Nottingham, the British Royal Palace has clarified that Harry and Meghan are acting as private citizens. They do not hold official royal duties or use the title ‘His or Her Royal Highness’ in a professional capacity for the monarchy. This distinction follows their decision to step back from senior royal roles in 2020.
