Harry and Meghan skipped the Queen's Balmoral holiday to 'take Archie on secret trip'

Meghan Markle, Prince Harry and Archie skipped visiting the Queen at Balmoral in favour of a trip to Spain, according to an explosive new book about the couple. One of the claims in Revenge, by biographer Tom Bower, details Meghan and Harry's absence at the traditional royal break in Scotland.

The Highlands retreat of Balmoral is the summer mainstay for the Queen, where she welcomes royal family members during the course of her 10-week stay, like Prince Charles and Camilla, along with the likes of Prince William, Kate Middleton and their children.

It's said that Harry and Meghan had been expected to visit in 2019 with newborn Archie. However, they supposedly skipped the trip for sunnier climes. The Mirror reported Bowers' claim that Meghan felt Archie was "too young at three months to travel by plane to Scotland".
