Meghan Markle and Prince Harry may have stepped back as senior members of the Royal family, but as they've made clear, they're still here to support the Queen of England.

According to the Sunday Times, Queen Elizabeth has called upon the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, including baby Archie, to return to the U.K. to attend the annual Commonwealth service.

The event will take place at Westminster Abbey on March 9, and the couple is expected to arrive in the country with Archie for official engagements before returning to Canada. The couple has previously attended the Commonwealth service in 2018 and 2019.

The Times sources say the Queen is "remarkably relaxed" and "unfazed" by the Sussexes’ new arrangements, and has said the monarchy must not stand in their way. "If that’s what they want, if they want to go, we must let them go," The Queen reportedly told friends.

Meghan and Harry have been spending time in Canada, as they set up their next moves to become financially independent. Though they reportedly made their first public appearance after the announcement at a private event in Miami last week, no photos have been shared.

"After many months of reflection and internal discussions, we have chosen to make a transition this year in starting to carve out a progressive new role within this institution," they wrote in their initial statement.

"We intend to step back as ‘senior’ members of the Royal Family and work to become financially independent, while continuing to fully support Her Majesty The Queen."

SHAW S | 4 years ago | Reply The Queen is behaving like a spoilt Brat; Now she put a ban on using the word 'Royal' along with the word Sussex ... Okay, so dont use the word Royal with Sussex as the old hag says..; Make your brand as "Sussex Crown".. as the word 'crown' is a common noun word and cannot be challenged in any court as proprietary rights; This old hag cannot take away the Duke & Duchess of Sussex title away from them so use it to advantage;
