Elizabeth II died on September 8 at her residence in Balmoral, Scotland, surrounded by her children and grandchildren. But a member of his clan was missing.
A few hours before Elizabeth II’s death, on Thursday, September 8, her children and grandchildren were still gathered at her bedside. At her home in Balmoral, Scotland, where she died, the Queen breathed her last surrounded by her children and grandchildren. Among them are his son Charles III, the new king of the United Kingdom, Andrew, Edward of Wessex and Prince William. A member of the Windsor clan, however, was missing: Harry, the Duke of Cambridge’s brother, rebel prince and … the Queen’s grandson.
At 6:30 p.m., when the flags fell over Buckingham Palace to signal the monarch’s death, Prince Harry was still flying over England. As reported DailyMail: , the latter only landed at Aberdeen Airport in the east of Scotland, after his grandmother’s disappearance. Fifteen minutes later, that’s right. It was not until 19:52, an hour and a half after his death, that he was finally able to join his family members at the residence in Scotland. A final encounter with the queen that sounds like a missed act. Another one for Lady Dee’s son, who has been in exile in California since 2020 with his wife, Meghan Markle, and two children, Lilibeth and Archie.

Missed meeting
According to royal expert and editor Cathy Nicholl Vanity Fair On GB News channel, transmitted DailyMail: Prince Harry missed several opportunities to say goodbye to his grandmother after her platinum jubilee last June. The event marked their last interview, in which the monarch met Meghan and Harry’s daughter Lilibeth, 1. Katie Nicholl says that at the end of August, Elizabeth II invited the Duke of Sussex to come and stay at her residence in Balmoral. “The Queen is always that big sleeper at Balmoral. They were invited to go there,” said the expert of the royal family. The invitation, however, was repeated but remained unanswered. “They were asked to go to Birkhall with the Prince of Wales and it didn’t happen,” added Katie Nicholl.
A gentle tribute
Does Prince Harry have any regrets? If the latter has not spoken since the death of the monarch, he wanted to pay tribute to him on the interface of his Archewell Foundation website created with Meghan Markle. From September 8, it displays a black screen, followed by an epitaph: “In memory of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II – 1926 to 2022”.
