The funeral of Queen Elizabeth II began across the Channel and will continue until September 19, in Westminster then in Windsor. For the occasion, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have made an important decision.
Arrived at the end of August for professional obligations, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry had to extend their stay in the UK. The couple had decided to reside across the Atlantic in 2020, thus renouncing their royal and even military titles for Harry.

The program of all the commemorations is already known, we also learned that the two princes Harry and William could walk side by side behind the coffin of Elizabeth II during the planned Procession to Westminster Abbey in end of the mornng. This was revealed Hello Magazine on September 12, insisting that Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have “already made the decision to stay in the UK after the death of Her Majesty the Queen”.
