The event took place a day after the couple’s visit to Queen Elizabeth II at Windsor Castle, their first joint visit to the United Kingdom since moving to the United States.
The couple’s office reports that they visited the 95-year-old queen, Harry’s grandmother, on Thursday on their way to the Netherlands to watch the Invictus Games. Harry is the founder and patron of the International Wounded Military Competition for Wounded Soldiers and Veterans.
Harry and Megan were greeted enthusiastically by cheering rivals at a park in The Hague. The event opens on Saturday and will last until April 22.
Harry and Megan resigned from the royal family and moved to North America in 2020, citing the unbearable pressure of their roles and the racist behavior of the British media.
Since then, Harry has traveled solo to the United Kingdom to attend the funeral of his grandfather, Prince Philip, in April 2021 and to unveil a statue of his late mother, Princess Diana, last July.
The couple, also known as the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, lost their tax-funded police guard when they left, and Harry sued the British government for refusing to let him pay for his own police security during his visits to the United Kingdom. . Lawyers say Harry wants to bring his children – Archie, who is almost 3 years old, and Lilibet, 10 months old – to visit his country, but that it is very dangerous without police protection.
Harry and Megan are expected to attend a reception in The Hague on Friday for the Invictus Games, which will run from Saturday to April 22.
The visit to the queen took place on Maundy Thursday, a day before Easter, which the queen for decades marked by handing silver coins known as “Maundy money” to retirees at a church service. This year the queen, who had mobility problems in recent months and fell with COVID-19 in February, did not attend. She was represented by her eldest son, Prince Charles, and his wife Camilla.
The monarch is also expected to lose the ecclesiastical function of the royal family on Easter Sunday. He continued to perform royal duties, including virtual audiences with politicians and diplomats.
