Prince Harry and Meghan Markle attend Queen’s Jubilee church service


Prince Harry and Meghan Markle attended the National Service of Thanksgiving at St. Paul’s Cathedral in London on Friday.

For the church service, which is part of Queen Elizabeth II’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex arrived early in the procession around 11:05 a.m.

The pair, who arrived without son Archie, 3, and daughter Lilibet, 11 months, held hands approaching the church.

Markle, 40, stunned in a coat dress and hat, while her husband, 37, sported a suit.

As Page Six previously reported, the 96-year-old monarch announced she would no longer be attending the service after she felt “discomfort” following Thursday’s festivities.

“Taking into account the journey and activity required to participate in [Friday’s] National Service of Thanksgiving at St. Paul’s Cathedral, her Majesty with great reluctance has concluded not to attend,” Buckingham Palace said in a statement Thursday.

“The Queen is looking forward to participating in [Thursday evening’s] Beacon lighting event at Windsor Castle and would like to thank all those who made today such a memorable occasion.”

Keeping with tradition, the Queen appeared alongside fellow members of the royal family on the iconic balcony at Buckingham Palace on Thursday for the Trooping the Colour parade.

She was joined by Prince William and Kate Middleton. Also in attendance was Prince Charles, who is next in line to the British throne, and his wife, Camilla, who will take on the title of “Queen Consort” when he becomes King.

The outing marked the royal family’s first balcony appearance since COVID-19 swept the globe in 2020.

However, the two were spotted keeping a low profile at the Trooping the Colour parade, where they spent time with some of the younger royals.
