Harry travelling to Balmoral 'without Meghan and separately from other royals'

The Duchess of Sussex is not travelling to Balmoral with the Duke of Sussex, with Harry making the trip by himself, sources have said.

It is understood Meghan will remain in London, but will not attend the WellChild awards. The duchess could potentially join Harry in Scotland at a later date, the source said, following the change of plan.

It follows reports that the couple were making their way to Balmoral separately from other royals. A flight containing members of the royal family landed at Aberdeen airport at 3.50pm ahead of their anticipated arrival at Balmoral.

The plane was carrying the Duke of Cambridge, the Duke of York and the Earl and Countess of Wessex. The BBC reported that it was carrying up to seven royals and that it may also be carrying the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.

However, later reports suggested the Sussexes were on their way to Balmoral separately from other royals - and sources subsequently said that Meghan was not accompanying Harry.

Meanwhile, there are no plans for the Prime Minister to travel to Scotland on Thursday or Friday, Downing Street said. The Prime Minister’s official spokesman also said he could not give any updates on the Queen’s health or whether Liz Truss has been in touch with the Palace.

“The Prime Minister is working from Downing Street this afternoon in a series of meetings,” he said. “As is standard, I wouldn’t get into any contact certainly between the Prime Minister and the Palace. Asked if there were any plans for the PM to travel to Scotland on Thursday or Friday, he said: “No.”
