Meghan Markle was 'expected' to join Prince Harry on UK visit – as real reason she didn't come is revealed

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been spending time in Nigeria on what has been dubbed a "mini royal tour", but some parts of the trip have raised eyebrows.

Meghan Markle was a no show at King Charles' Coronation last year but her absence did not go unnoticed by other royals who were seen questioning her whereabouts, according to a lip reader.

Prince Harry may encounter significant issues when the time arrives for him to renew his visa in the United States. This warning comes from an immigration solicitor, soon after allegations surfaced intimating that the Duke of Sussex may not have been entirely honest on his original US visa application.

Meghan Markle's mentor, Bonnie Hammer, has spilled the beans on what the Duchess of Sussex was really like behind the scenes of her hit show, Suits. In the chat the 74-year-old revealed that Meghan, who was then a 'junior' cast member, worked her 'butt off' during rehearsals for the legal drama and was always eager to learn. The actress, now married to Prince Harry and known as the Duchess of Sussex, starred in the USA Network series from 2011 to 2018.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex's three-day trip to Nigeria began on Thursday, May 9 and saw them meet military officials, speak about mental health and promote the Invictus Games. While the pair stepped back from their senior royal roles in 2020, their visit to the west African nation was dubbed a 'mini royal tour' – a reference which a leading royal expert points out will not have "pleased" King Charles or the Prince of Wales.

King Charles had a private meeting with David Beckham, just after he allegedly turned down an opportunity to see Prince Harry due to his busy schedule. After his doctors confirmed that The King could focus on getting back to a fuller diary, the King did not have the opportunity to see his younger son, who jetted into London on Tuesday, in preparation of his appearance at St Paul's Cathedral the next day to celebrate the Invictus Games.

The alleged reason King Charles turned down the chance to see his son, Prince Harry this week is that he wanted to steer clear of any "drama", according to Royal insiders. As Prince Harry, aged 39, touched down in the UK on Tuesday for the tenth anniversary celebrations of the Invictus Games before his three-day trip to Nigeria, many thought he would meet his father, King Charles, especially after the King's cancer diagnosis earlier this year.
