Harry missed seeing queen amid confusion about Meghan's travel ... (Pacifica Tribune)

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle may regret an earlier decision to not take time out of their trip to Europe this week to visit his grandmother at Balmoral ...

Meghan wasn’t the only royal wife to not accompany her husband to Balmoral. Harry also somewhat arrogantly said the monarch could talk to him about things “she can’t talk about with anyone else” and that it was up to him — not any of his family members who lived close to her in the U.K. Harry also made controversial comments to the “Today” show in April about his relationship with his grandmother. The Sussexes were scheduled to attend the WellChild Awards in London Thursday night. Harry and Meghan’s relationship with his family has become even more fraught and possibly non-existent in some cases after the couple began making a series of public revelations about life in the royal family. The Sussexes had no plans to visit the queen in Scotland during their whirlwind visit to the U.K. From their interview with Oprah Winfrey in March 2021, through Meghan’s more recent disclosures on her new Spotify podcast and in New York’s magazine’s The Cut, the couple have accused the royals of harboring a racist family member, as well as being repressive, dysfunctional and antiquated. Harry landed at the airport 15 minutes later, but didn’t make it to Balmoral until close to 8 p.m., the Daily Mail said. Only the queen’s eldest children, the new King Charles III and Princess Anne, who were already in Scotland, were able to see her before her death, sources told the Daily Mail. that Meghan would stay in London, the Daily Mail said. This unusual statement about the queen’s health was seen as giving the public warning that the situation was very serious, the Daily Mail said. Harry wasn’t the only senior royal to miss being with Elizabeth II in her last hours.

When the Duke and Duchess of Sussex stepped back from their roles as senior working members of the royal family in January 2020, Her Majesty responded to ...

“The Queen is very pragmatic, and, at the end of the day, she adores her family. I want to thank them for all their dedicated work across the country, the Commonwealth, and beyond, and am particularly proud of how Meghan has so quickly become one of the family. The next month, even with the explosive interview where it was revealed one royal family member made comments about Archie’s skin tone before he was born, Harry was quick to point out that the offending member of the family was not the Queen or Prince Philip. But she missed them terribly and wished things hadn’t quite gone as combative as they had. Lilibet Diana Mountbatten-Windsor was born on 4 June, 2021 and is known affectionately as Lili. Not long after Harry and Meghan married in May 2018, the newly minted Duchess of Sussex embarked on her first solo engagement with Her Majesty, travelling aboard the Royal Train to open the new Mersey Gateway Bridge in Cheshire on 14 June that year – less than a month after their wedding. And she has a blanket that sits across her knees for warmth, and it was chilly. While close to all of her grandchildren in their own way, Her Majesty and Harry always enjoyed a close bond full of laughter and merriment since Harry’s birth in 1984. Although we would have preferred them to remain full-time working Members of the Royal Family, we respect and understand their wish to live a more independent life as a family while remaining a valued part of my family.” Just days after the original January 2020 statement from the Queen, she continued to express her love for Harry, Meghan, and Archie – in the first person, writing: “Harry, Meghan, and Archie will always be much loved members of my family.
