Prince Harry always seems 'much happier if Meghan is not around’

A royal expert has claimed that Prince Harry always seems “much happier if Meghan is not around’ as the Duke arrived at the Invictus Games event in Birmingham.

Taking to X, formerly Twitter handle, royal expert Angela Levin, who is a major critic of Meghan and Harry, has claimed this as the Duchess did not join the Duke despite initial plans to do so.

She tweeted, “Harry always seems much happier if Meghan is not around and he's playing games. He knows he won't be pushed to get out of her way if she's bored or she can get to the front.”

Prince Harry arrived at the Invictus Games event in Birmingham to mark one year to go until Birmingham 2027 - which takes place at the NEC in July 2027.

Prince Harry is there without the Duchess who announced she “wouldn’t be attending any public engagements in the UK this week, despite previously saying she would”.

Another royal expert Chris Ship has claimed, “It is thought that Meghan is currently in the UK with the couple’s children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, but that they are visiting ‘privately’.”

At the event, Prince Harry watched a showcase of the games which will be played at Invictus, including wheelchair rugby and pickleball - a sport which combines tennis, table tennis and badminton.

He also tried his hand at pickleball, playing in a doubles game, watched by competitors, families and supporters.

Meanwhile, talking to media, Prince Harry said: “I am proud of my family".
