Meghan Markle and Prince Harry ‘WON’T be involved in Trooping the Colour’ for Queen’s Jubilee despite balcony invitation

PRINCE Harry and Meghan Markle WONT be involved in Trooping the Colour for the Queen’s Jubilee, it is understood.

The Queen invited the Duke and Duchess of Sussex to join the Royal Family on the Buckingham Palace balcony in June, sources claimed.

But non-working members of the firm are not able to take part in Trooping the Colour – or play any central role in Jubilee events.

This makes it highly unlikely that the couple will play a part in the Queen’s celebration of 70 years on the throne.

It is understood to be Her Majesty’s “dearest wish” to see her family reunited on the balcony during her four-day celebration, the Express reports.

But sources close to the palace said the claims were “speculation” and Buckingham Palace declined to comment.

Harry and Meghan met Charles, Camilla and the Queen at Windsor Castle on Thursday during their first face-to-face meeting in more than two years.

The Duke of Sussex offered an “olive branch” to his father before he and Meghan arrived for secret talks.

The couple also met with Camilla, sources confirmed.

An insider said of Thursday’s UK visit: “Harry contacted his father and said he wanted to meet.”

And the Duke later broke his silence on the secret meeting – saying “it was great to see her”.

In an interview screened last night, Harry said of the Queen: “It was great to see her and I’m sure she would love to be here if she could.”

The Duke of Sussex was being interviewed by presenter Alex Jones and Harry’s pal, ex-Royal Marine JJ Chalmers for the BBC in the Hague, where the Invictus Games are being held.

The beaming couple arrived hand-in-hand on Good Friday to meet hero competitors in Holland — their first public appearance together in Europe since Megxit two years ago.

But Royals fear the Harry and Meghan show could “hijack and overshadow” the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee if the couple return this summer.

Senior sources believe the hush-hush visit — revealed by The Celeb Report — was a bid by them to pave the way for “places front and centre” at the Jubilee events in June.
