Prince Harry and Meghan spotted watching Queen's Jubilee celebrations

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have been spotted watching the Queen's Jubilee celebrations.

Prince Harry and Meghan arrived in the UK this week for their first joint Royal Family occasion since they stepped away from royal duties. While not appearing on the balcony of Buckingham Palace with the rest of their family, the Royal couple were spotted watching the Trooping of Colour from a vantage point.

In May, Buckingham Palace announced the Queen has decided to limit the balcony line-up to working members of the royal family, appearing to rule out the couple who abandoned royal duties in 2020 and Prince Andrew. After the ceremony, the Queen was seen standing on Buckingham Palace’s balcony, with her cousin the Duke of Kent, Colonel of the Scots Guards.

Later, Meghan and Harry were photographed chatting to the Duke of Kent after they enjoyed the celebrations. Reportedly, they have travelled with their children - three-year-old Archie and Lilibet who turns one on Saturday. It is the first time the duke and duchess will have brought Lilibet, who was named in honour of the Queen, to the UK.

The rest of the Queen's family joined her on the balcony of Buckingham Palace to watch the Red Arrows fly past. It took six minutes to fly over the crowds and included more than three times the number of aircraft which took part in the Queen's last birthday parade flypast in central London in 2019.
