This Monday, September 19, it’s a long day for the royal family : after a very long procession and two masses in public (including one in the presence of most of the heads of state of the planet), the children and grandchildren of Queen Elizabeth II gathered without camerasfor a final private ceremony and final burial of the sovereign at Windsor Castle.
A last goodbye which marked the end of the eleven days of mourning decreed by King Charles III after the death of his mother on September 8, and which will allow the members of the clan to breathe a little. But will it sound the end of the British stay for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle? It would seem so…
Indeed, before learning of the brutal death of his grandmother, the youngest son of King Charles and his wife had already planned a tour of Europe for various events including the launch of his famous Invictus Games. and had arrived on September 3. Leaving their children in the care of several nannies and especially of their maternal grandmother Doria Ragland, the couple was therefore already gone for more than a week from California when the queen died.
A blended family?
It therefore makes almost three weeks that they have not seen their children, little Archie and Lilibet (3 and 1 year old), a very long time for such young toddlers. We could therefore easily understand that their parents hurry to return, those who spent the night in Windsor, like the whole family. Will they fly back on Tuesday? For the moment, no information has yet been given, but according to the British media whose DailyMailboth should go”as soon as they can“.
Leave, okay… but reconciled with the royal family or further apart than ever ? Questions and theories about the couple and the Windsor clan are now numerous, after a funeral where we saw the prince, his face more closed than ever, walking with his eldest, William, without ever exchanging a look with him .
However, it is said that during the week, the two dined several times together and that Prince Harry would have even finally spent some time with his nephews and nieces. So, is a little warming of relations in sight?
