Prince Harry and Meghan Markle made a quick stop to visit Queen Elizabeth II on their way to this year's Invictus Games. On April 14, People reported that a spokesperson for the Sussexes confirmed the two stopped by Windsor Castle in the UK to see the Queen. This marks the first time all three have reunited since the Duke and Duchess of Sussex stepped down from their senior positions in the royal family and had their candid interview with Oprah Winfrey in 2021.

The Sussexes moved to the United States in March 2020 and Markle hasn't returned to Europe since then. Since relocating, the Duke has visited the UK on two separate occasions: to attend his grandfather Prince Philip's funeral last April and to unveil a statue of his mother, Princess Diana, three months later.

The Duke and Duchess are set to kick off the fifth annual Invictus Games in the Netherlands on April 16. The couple's first public appearance was actually at the 2017 Invictus Games in Toronto, where they were secretly hiding their engagement. The hope for this year's Invictus Games is that the Sussexes will make this event just as memorable.
