British citizens do not forget the famous Megxit, the departure of Prince Henry and his wife, Meghan Markle, from the United Kingdom; at the same time as the step back they took as main members of the Royal Family.
Almost four years have passed since that moment, with a stop during the funeral of Isabel II that was not without controversy; so that we can talk again about the return of Prince Henry’s family. It will probably be next May 8, a date that would mark the tenth anniversary of the Invictus Games, inaugurated in 2014 and created by him with the help of his grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II.
Prince Harry is expected to attend a special service at St Paul’s Cathedral as the founder of the games, dedicated to sick and wounded military men and women. Both the son of Carlos III and his wife have always been very defenders of them, and have traveled the world during their different editions to promote them. This year, without going any further, they could be seen in Canada.
Games that will have one of their technical stops in London next May, a city where the prince could attend with his entire family. Of course, if an unavoidable condition is met. According to The Telegraph, Meghan Markle and little Archie (4) and Lilibet (2) will only attend if the British Home Office revokes the decision that makes her no longer entitled to immediate police protection when in the United Kingdom.
A decision made by the Executive Committee for the Protection of Royalty and Public Figures (Ravec) in February 2020, which agreed that the son of King Charles III would not receive publicly funded protection when in the United Kingdom.
Prince Henry thus began a legal conflict against the British Government after being announced that he would not receive, as a civil citizen and not a member of the Royal House, the “same degree” of personal protection security in the United Kingdom.
At the moment, it is unknown if Prince Henry would be close to achieving his goal. He did not do so on his previous visit, when his father announced that he had cancer, and the Duke of Sussex decided to quickly travel to London after hearing the news. On that occasion, neither his wife nor the couple’s children traveled with him.
However, it seems that everything could change in this new and long-awaited meeting. The couple contacted King Charles, as well as the Princess of Wales, to wish them both a speedy recovery. Although there is a “zero percent chance” of Prince Harry returning to royal responsibilities, according to British media, he could be the starting point to turn things around.
