They will be returning to the UK next month
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have announced that they are returning to the UK next month to attend several charity events "close to their hearts". The Duke and Duchess of Sussex will also travel to Germany to mark a year until the Invictus Games arrive in Dusseldorf.
However, Charlotte Griffiths, The Mail on Sunday’s editor at large, told MailPlus' Palace Confidential that the announcement of their tour was made to avoid the "embarrassment" of empty crowds at the events. She claimed that the Duke and Duchess will likely have a Netflix crew with them filming for a documentary, and the former working royals want to avoid "embarrassing" moments in front of the cameras, The Express reports.
Ms Griffiths said: "I think they released these dates in advance because they want to give a chance for crowds to gather. Because, if they do have a Netflix crew with them, imagine how embarrassing it would be if there were just three people there waving.".Sarah Vine echoed Ms Griffiths' remarks, calling the trip a royal tour in all but name.
However, a spokesperson for the Sussexes insists the tour is focused entirely on charity and not publicity. The couple are expected to arrive in Manchester on 5 September for the One Young World Summit opening ceremony, where Meghan is expected to give a keynote address.
