Harry and Meghan’s date in London: great opportunity for the Sussexes to meet Kate and William

There is already a date for Harry’s trip to London. It will be in May, on the 8th. He publishes it Tatler. The Duke of Sussex will preside over the ceremony marking the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games. Of course, Meghan Markle is invited to this event, but she has not confirmed her attendance, as published by the aforementioned media. It will be the prince’s second visit to the United Kingdom since his father made her cancer public.

The Invictus ceremony will take place at St. Paul’s Cathedral. Even, according to publication Tatler, a speech from Harry is expected. It will be the Duke of Sussex’s opportunity to hug his father again after that express visit on February 6, just a few hours after the monarch informed the world of his cancer. Then the royal spent 26 hours in the United Kingdom and was with the sovereign for 45 minutes. It is true that the brevity of this interview was due to the fatigue of the 75-year-old monarch, and also due to the medication he is receiving. There was no meeting with Guillermo and Kate.

Now Harry has the second opportunity to break the ice and heal wounds with his brother. A visit to Kate Middleton, who is facing her preventive chemotherapy treatment, would be the decisive step towards reconciliation.

It must be remembered that the Sussexes found out about their sister-in-law’s illness at the same time as the rest of the world, when the princess shared the video with the announcement on Friday, March 22. Then, the princes of Wales received a call from the dukes of Sussex of encouragement and support.

As Harry himself slipped in Canada a few weeks ago, his father’s cancer diagnosis could have a “reunifying” effect on the Windsor family. It was the word he chose: “Reunifier”according to the media, starting with CNN. “Any illness, any illness, brings families together,” he said. We will see if this second visit to London has that effect that Harry recognized. It so happens that four years have passed since the Sussexes activated the Megxit button and left the Royal Family to live a life, they alleged, away from the public spotlight. A focus that they later did not renounce and to which they exposed themselves in Netflix docuseries, autobiographical memoirs and podcasts on Spotify.
