The meeting between Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle and the Queen has been revealed. The couple, who live in Montecito, California, flew to the United Kingdom last week before heading to the Netherlands to host the Invictus Games in The Hague.
On Easter Monday, Prince Harry told the BBC that it was “great to see her.”
“She had plenty of messages for Team UK, which I’ve already passed on to the majority of them,” he said, adding, “I’m sure she’d love to be here if she could.”
It was Harry’s first meeting with the Queen since last year’s funeral for Prince Philip, and Meghan’s first since the couple moved to the United States to start their new lives.
The couple, who have two children, Archie, who is almost three, and Lily, who will turn one in June, met with Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall.
Since arriving in The Hague on Friday, the couple has had a successful week, but Prince Harry is now flying solo after Meghan returned to Los Angeles on Monday.
It’s no surprise that the 40-year-old hasn’t stayed with Harry until the Games end at the end of the week, as she revealed on day two that she misses her children.
Meghan made the admission while sitting in on a private event in the Zuiderpark, where she was listening to a reading to a group of 12 children.
She told British army veteran James Stride that she wanted to go to the reading because it meant she’d be around kids, and they reminded her of her own, who had stayed behind in Montecito with her mother, Doria Ragland.
“Meghan was quite chatty and told me she missed her children,” James, a member of the Great Britain team competing in The Hague, told MailOnline.
“She expressed a desire to be around children because she was missing her own.”
The trip to Europe is believed to be the couple’s longest separation from Archie and Lili.
