Meghan Markle and Prince Harry were pictured performing their royal duties in London this week ahead of their royal break.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex were seen attending the 91st Field of Remembrance at Westminster Abbey. The pair looked glum while at the event.
There, they honored the memory of England's heroes who have lost their lives at war. Harry — who served of Afghanistan during his in the army — wore a navy military uniform and Meghan, 38, a matching coat, hat, and black heel boots.
As RadarOnline.com readers know, the pair’s royal outing comes days before they are set to leave London to embark on a six-week vacation! According to the Sunday Times, the husband and wife will use their days off to spend some “family time” with their loved ones. They will even be taking baby Archie to Los Angeles where they will celebrate Thanksgiving as a family, with Meghan’s mother, Doria Ragland.
According to The Sun, the royals may be planning to move semi-permanently to the United States — as they’ve decided moving to Africa would be too difficult for their family — amid their discontent in England.
Meghan and Harry, 35, will return to London for Christmas, which they will celebrate with the Queen and the royal family in Norfolk at Sandringham.
News of Meghan and Harry’s solo getaway spread after the pair voiced their anguish over the continued bullying they’ve received since their wedding in May 2018.
In an interview with Tom Bradby for the documentary Harry & Meghan: An African Journey, the royals opened up about their lives over the past year.
“Any woman, especially when you’re pregnant, you’re really vulnerable,” Meghan said, speaking of her experience with intense media scrutiny. “And then when you have a newborn, you know. And especially as a woman it’s a lot. So, you add this on top of just trying to be a new mom or trying to be a newlywed.”
Harry also said that the way the U.K. media has been treating his wife reminds him of the bullying his own mother, Princess Diana, received.
Standing Up For Family
“I’ve seen what happens when someone I love is commoditised to the point that they are no longer treated or seen as a real person. I lost my mother and now I watch my wife falling victim to the same powerful forces,” he said.
Dark Past
Readers know the prince’s late mother, Princess Diana, died in a car crash in 1997 while being chased by paparazzi.
Not Giving Up
Meghan and Harry are now planning a second documentary to continue telling their story.
Changing Lives
A source told Straight Shuter that despite the royal family’s disapproval, they thought their interviews were great, and truly believe they are “single-handedly modernizing the monarchy.”
Not Ok!
As RadarOnline.com previously reported, however, Prince William is very much angered by his brother’s new willingness to speak out and go against royal tradition.
Modern Royals
With their lawsuit against the British press and Harry’s “aggressive” announcement, “this interview came as a total shock to the family,” a source told RadarOnline.com. “They have gone rogue.”
Similarly, the Queen has allegedly shunned Harry and Meghan by removing their wedding photo from its original place — next to a photo of William, 37, and Kate Middleton — in Buckingham Palace.
Enough Is Enough
Now, sources are saying Meghan and Harry may leave the royal family for good.
