In a stunning twist of royal drama, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are reportedly set to be excluded from the royal family’s highly anticipated trip to the United States next year, marking America’s 250th birthday. Sources close to the situation have revealed to Page Six that the couple,
having stepped back from their royal duties, will not be part of this historic celebration, leaving them metaphorically “out in the cold.”
As Prince William and Princess Catherine gear up for the monumental festivities in July, the absence of Harry and Meghan is sure to raise eyebrows and spark conversation. The royal family’s visit is not just a casual affair; it’s a grand state visit that follows a successful engagement during a previous trip with former President Donald Trump. With King Charles’s health in focus, the family is preparing for what promises to be a star-studded tour celebrating the Declaration of Independence and the long-standing ties between the U.S. and the British monarchy.
The decision to exclude the Duke and Duchess of Sussex seems to stem from their choice to step away from royal duties, effectively declaring their independence from the institution. While the royal family embarks on this celebratory journey, Harry and Meghan appear to be carving their own path, with Meghan promoting her new Netflix series and her latest ventures on social media.

Meanwhile, the royal spotlight shines brightly on Princess Catherine, who has made headlines with her poignant advocacy for addiction awareness. As she marks the beginning of Addiction Awareness Week in the UK, Catherine’s heartfelt message emphasizes the need for empathy and support for those battling addiction, challenging the stigma that often surrounds the issue. Her dedication to this cause reflects a commitment to using her platform for positive change, a stark contrast to the ongoing turmoil surrounding her in-laws.
