Most of the senior royals will travel to the event from the palace in carriages. The Duke of Cambridge and the Princess Royal will join the Prince of Wales on horseback. Charles will be taking the salute as the Colour of the 1st Battalion Irish Guards is trooped, and will inspect the Troops of the Household Division on behalf of the monarch. The Queen, Prince Charles, Prince William and Princess Anne will not be watching from the Major General’s Office as they will be carrying out royal duties. The room overlooks the entrance to Horse Guards, and traditionally royals watch the parade from there if they are not taking part. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have been invited by the Queen to watch the event from the Major General’s Office overlooking the parade in Whitehall.

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are confirmed to be attending Trooping the Colour. So where are they, and why weren't they in the carriage procession or on ...

Buckingham Palace announced last month that Meghan, Harry, and other non-working royal members were not invited to join the Queen on the balcony this year, eliminating one major public appearance the Sussexes could've had. Harry and Meghan arrived in London yesterday with their children. The Queen's birthday parade, Trooping the Colour, is ongoing in London this morning, and so far, photos have come out of Kate Middleton and her and Prince William's three children Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis in the carriage procession.

Prince Harry previously offered to pay the Metropolitan Police for protection but was told they're not "guns for hire," according to The Mirror.

The couple gave up their right to publicly-funded security when they resigned as working royals in April 2020. Myers further reported that security sources said that the Met's Royalty and Specialist Protection unit have spent weeks working alongside the prince's team to guarantee taxpayer-funded officers. "This is what I'm trying to do, trying to make it possible that I can get my kids to meet her."

The Metropolitan Police Events account also posted: "The viewing areas in central London for the Queen's Platinum Jubilee celebrations are now full. Please do not head to St James's Park but enjoy the Jubilee celebrations elsewhere." Later on Thursday, the Queen will lead a festival of light that will beam across the country and around the world as cities, towns and Commonwealth nations light commemorative beacons to join in the celebrations in a ceremony that goes back to Queen Victoria’s Diamond Jubilee in 1897.

I think that for someone of her age to have four full days, one after the other - " They've been invited, they've been given full security, so the Queen has endorsed it. Maybe it's making it better for the Queen, maybe she feels more comfortable that they are there." The presenter interjected: "I don't think they forced themselves, they didn't say we're coming no matter what. "I think inviting Harry and Meghan to the Jubilee celebrations will be hopefully not only an olive branch from the Queen to them, but also maybe hopefully might provide a rapprochement within the Royal Family itself." But I don't think you can then influence all the population to feel exactly the same.

She then went back into the palace before re-emerging with a full complement of working royals, including Kate, William and their children to observe a six minute flypast of 70 aircraft, one for each of her years on the throne. The California-based couple were said to have arrived discreetly at Horse Guards Parade in London by car with their children, in contrast to some other members of the family who arrived publicly in horse-drawn carriages.

The celebration will wrap up with a special parade through central London on Sunday, June 5. The tradition is believed to have started during the reign of King George II in 1748. Instead, they joined extended members of the royal family in viewing the Horse Guards Parade from the Major General's Office, which overlooks the parade grounds. Prince Harry, 37, and Meghan, 40, who arrived in the U.K. alongside their two children — Archie and Lilibet — were excluded from the lineup because they are no longer senior working members of the royal family.

The source noted that Prince William and Kate Middleton will not be available to meet Meghan and Harry’s baby girl, as they will be in Wales on Saturday, at an engagement at Cardiff Castle. It's unclear whether or not they will meet her at some point during the four-day celebration. The meeting will likely happen on Lilibet's first birthday, Saturday, with a source telling ET that the 96-year-old monarch will not attend the Epsom Derby on Saturday, which leaves time for her to meet her great-granddaughter.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have not been seen together publicly in the UK since they quit as senior royals in January 2020. The duke and duchess quit as working members of the Royal Family in January 2020 and said they would split their time between the UK and North America.

Harry was in Britain last year for the funeral of his grandfather Prince Philip.

Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan were photographed at the Major General’s Office, Horse Guards Parade earlier.

A royal source said: “It’s fair to say that things between the Duke and Duchess and the rest of the family have been strained to say the least in recent times.
