It is a reign anniversary that Queen Elizabeth II will not soon forget. From the height of her 96 springs, the Sovereign is about to blow out the 70th candle of her presence on the throne of England. A very important event for her. This is the reason why the prince harry and Meghan Markle, yet at odds with the Windsor clan, announced through a representative that they would be present for the occasion: “Prince Harry and Meghan, Duke and Duchess of Sussex are very happy and honored to attend the Queen’s Jubilee celebrations in June with their children” noted Hello Magazine. The family should therefore be complete to celebrate Her Majesty. Except on the balcony of Buckingham Palace.
Not wanting any story for this already grand anniversary, Elizabeth II announced that only active members of the royal family could stand by her side to observe the Trooping the Color parade from the balcony of Buckingham. An appointment which therefore officially excludes Meghan Markle and Harry as well as Prince Andrew, involved in the sordid Jeffrey Epstein affair. It must be believed that this decision did not upset the Sussexes who are happy to find everyone in a few weeks.
A royal reunion
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle will surely be able to take the opportunity to strengthen ties with members of the royal clan. Since their departure from the monarchy and their installation in the United States, the former actress and William’s brother have not spared the Crown. In the interview they gave to Oprah Winfrey, they claimed in particular that little Archie was a victim of racism even before he was born and that calls for help from Meghan Markle, left to herself with her dark thoughts, had not been heard. Lately, they also demanded that their protection be provided by British law enforcement for each of their return to England.
We do not know if a compromise has been found for this time, but one thing is certain, the arrival of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry is an event! Especially if Archie, just 3 years old, and Lilibet, soon to be 1 year old, are included in the equation. Since the baby girl was born, the queen has never officially met her. Elizabeth II’s platinum jubilee is therefore the perfect opportunity to kill four birds with one stone: celebrate the anniversary of the Queen’s reign, Lilibet’s first candle and make official meetings between children and other family members. Something to warm up icy relations with some, perhaps.
