Sussexes back for whirlwind tour

-

THE Duke and Duchess of Sussex reportedly landed back in Britain yesterday as they began a whirlwind tour of charity events across Europe.

Meghan is due to speak at the One Young World Summit in Manchester tomorrow. The event brings together young leaders from more than

190 countries.

The pair will then fly to Dusseldorf in Germany, where they will attend the ‘One year to go’ countdown for the Invictus

Games 2023. There, Harry will meet those involved with the organisati­on of the Paralympic­style tournament he started for wounded and injured veterans and service personnel.

The Sussexes will return to Britain for the WellChild Awards ceremony in London

on Thursday, where Harry will deliver a speech.

It is unclear whether Meghan and Harry will visit his 96-yearold grandmothe­r at Balmoral but, given the strained relations with his brother William, he is not expected to visit the Cambridges. And even if there was time to visit his father, Prince Charles is likely to be busy in Scotland supporting the Queen as she welcomes in her 15th Prime Minister.

Despite mobility issues, the Queen still has a busy schedule and continues to receive a daily red box of official papers which demand her attention.

Other members of the family appear to be giving the Duke and

Duchess of Sussex a wide berth and they are surely slipping down the Christmas list with every excoriatin­g ‘truth bomb’ explosion from their mansion in Montecito, California.

Harry recently interrupte­d an interview Meghan was giving and told the journalist: ‘Most people that I know, and many of my family – they aren’t able to work and live together.’

The writer added: ‘He enunciates “family” with a vocal eye-roll.’
