The return of the Dukes of Sussex to The Hague, hours after their clandestine visit to Elizabeth II

Meghan Markle and Harry met the photographers again in The Hague, where the Invictus Games will take place in the coming days. Although the official opening is today, the Dukes of Sussex arrived yesterday more smiling and complicit than ever† Meghan chose a white jacket and trousers with matching shoes for the visit, while her husband opted for a dark suit with an unbuttoned white shirt, adding an informal touch to the look† The couple walked with local authorities through the Zuiderpark stadium, where the curious crowd gathered to see the Dukes of Sussex up close.

Harry has always been a fan of the Invictus Games. The first match hosted by Lady Di’s youngest son was between combatants with consequences, and they played a game of wheelchair rugby. In this the first time took place eight years agoand 400 participants from 13 different countries took part, who were able to enjoy the first match with Harry.

His visit to The Hague comes hours after holding a secret meeting with Elizabeth II† The English newspaper ‘The Sun’ broke the news of the clandestine visit, pointing out that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex made a stopover in the UK before arriving in the Netherlands with the aim of seeing the Queen. The news has taken everyone by surprise, as Harry and Meghan assured they would not return to the UK, arguing that they have had issues with their personal safety since they distanced themselves from the British Royal Family. That may be why they decided to keep this visit a secret. Apparently Meghan and Harry they would have landed in Britain to visit Elizabeth II at Windsor Castlehis official residence for some time.

This Sunday marks the anniversary of the Duke of Edinburgh’s funeral, which may have softened the heart of his grandson Harry. The couple would also be reunited with Prince Charles, but it seems they didn’t visit anyone else. This is the first time Meghan has seen faces at her in-laws after the controversial statements she made to Oprah Winfrey. Meghan called the British royal family racist and told of an episode where she ended up crying because of her sister-in-law Kate Middleton. Given the situation, it is more than likely that the tension was felt in the area during the reunion.

This could be the first step towards reconciliation and maybe we’ll see the whole family together again. Right now, Meghan and Harry are enjoying the Netherlands on the occasion of the next celebration of the Invictus Games, in which we have already seen them on other occasions. The Dukes of Sussex are sports enthusiasts, something that can be seen in their physical condition. Last year 2018, when they had not yet left the family, the couple also participated in the games. The look chosen by Meghan was very different from this year. On that occasion, she opted for black skinny pants with heels in the same color, matching a burgundy top. The Duchess of Sussex has always been very close to people at all the events she has attended.

Although the most tender anecdote from the Invictus Games came in 2017, when Harry had a little robbery between the stands. Elizabeth II’s grandson was enjoying the games in Toronto, Canada when little Emily Henson took advantage of Harry’s supervision to steal some tempting popcorn. Harry slowly realized what was going on, and the little girl didn’t hesitate to take advantage of that discount time. When he finally realizes what’s going on, he himself decides to offer popcorn to Emily, who doesn’t think twice and decides to immediately accept the offer. With moments like this, Prince Harry reminds us a lot of the character of his mother, Princess Diana. Today the couple had a great time playing with the children.

At around 8pm, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex attended the opening of the Invictus Games.
