MEGHAN Markle and Prince Harry may not attend the Queen’s 95th birthday parade due to the Covid pandemic.
The pair, who now live in LA, are expected to attend as it’s both a “family occasion” and an official event.
The Queen invited the pair to her celebrations on June 12, in the first royal reunion since Megxit.
But a source close to the couple told the Telegraph: “It’s a little presumptuous for any of us to be speculating about whether we can travel anywhere this summer.”
They distanced the pair from reports saying they had “set their sights on a return to Britain” and attend “lots of family events”.
It comes after we told how her Majesty, 94, is said to be determined to get “back to business” after she was forced to cancel a string of royal events last year due to the pandemic.
And she invited her grandson and Meghan to join her for Trooping the Colour in London to mark her official birthday.
It would be the first time they have publicly reunited since Harry and Meghan sensationally quit the royal family last January.
Trooping the Colour is usually held in public with Meghan previously joining other royals – including Kate Middleton – on the balcony of Buckingham Palace.
Attending the event would also mean Harry would be in the UK for his grandad, the Duke of Edinburgh’s, 100th birthday.
REUNION SCUPPERED?
The military parade falls two days after the milestone with the royals hoping to give praise this year to the army, who are helping roll out the Covid vaccine.
Last year, the Queen beamed as she enjoyed a stripped-back and socially distant Trooping the Colour ceremony in honour of her birthday.
For the first time in 125 years, the ceremony took place at Windsor Castle where she has been shielding with Prince Philip.
More than 1,700 troops and 400 musicians traditionally perform at London’s Horse Guards Parade in front of huge crowds.
But last year, fewer than 100 Welsh Guards participated in a private parade.
It comes amid speculation about when the Duke and Duchess of Sussex would return to the UK from their home in LA, where they have spent the last year.
They had been due to meet the Queen in March for their 12-month review of Megxit but this was cancelled due to the Covid pandemic.
The Royal Family has a packed diary of big events Prince Harry would be keen not to miss out on.
This includes the unveiling of a statue of Princess Diana that Wills and Harry commissioned together.
The last royal event involving the couple was at the Queen’s Commonwealth Day Service at Westminster Abbey last March.
But the day was overshadowed by the Megxit bombshell and came amid reports Prince William was furious with his brother’s decision.
William and Kate have continued their royal duties through the coronavirus pandemic.
