Heading Home: Prince Harry and Meghan Markle Return to California After Queen’s Funeral
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are set to head back to their California home following the funeral service of Queen Elizabeth II.
The couple, who arrived in the UK last week after the Queen's passing, are not planning to prolong their stay in the country.
An insider revealed that they were not prepared for an extended stay in the UK, and are eager to reunite with their children, Lilibet and Archie, back in California.
This separation from their kids marks the longest period they have been apart from them.
During the funeral service, body language expert Adrienne Carter noted Prince Harry scanning the room, reminiscent of his mother Princess Diana's funeral.
Carter suggested that Harry may be reflecting on a life that no longer feels familiar to him.
While some royal fans disagreed with Carter's interpretation, believing Harry's expressions showed more than just sadness, possibly indicating suppressed anger and shame.
Speculations have arisen regarding Harry and Meghan's expectations from King Charles, with some suggesting that the couple may have overestimated their leverage within the royal family.
Concerns have been raised about the couple's reported attempts to influence public opinion through leaked articles, indicating potential desperation in achieving their goals.
The aftermath of the funeral may serve as a reality check for the couple, as they come to terms with the realization that their demands may not be met.
Despite walking side by side during the procession for Queen Elizabeth II's funeral, Prince William and Prince Harry maintained a noticeable distance throughout the ceremony.
The once-close brothers sat separately and departed in different vehicles following the service.
An insider shared that Prince William is focused on honoring the Queen and processing his grief, rather than dwelling on his relationship with Harry.
An expert lip reader shed light on a brief exchange between the brothers before the committal service.
Prince Harry, acknowledging Prince William's gesture to let him and Meghan pass first, asked if they should proceed ahead.
William, responding affirmatively, allowed the couple to go ahead, with Kate also showing her consent.
The interaction showcased a moment of unity amidst the brothers' apparent distance during the ceremony.
As the funeral proceedings concluded, Prince Harry was seen sharing a heartwarming moment with his niece, Princess Charlotte, exchanging a reassuring smile.
The subtle interaction hinted at a sense of familial connection amid the somber atmosphere of the event.
The brothers' interactions and dynamics during the funeral reflect a complex mix of personal emotions and public expectations, highlighting the intricate nature of their relationship within the royal family.
