Meghan Skips 100% of UK Invictus Events as Security Dispute Leaves Harry Solo

Summary
Meghan will not attend any public Invictus events during Prince Harry’s UK visit, ending speculation she might still appear at Friday’s Birmingham engagement.
A security dispute had already kept Meghan, Archie and Lilibet from joining Harry at the start of the week; representatives would not say whether she or the children are in Britain privately.
Harry is now expected to carry out the remaining Birmingham and Midlands appearances alone, after a visit meant to promote Birmingham’s 2027 Invictus Games was repeatedly thrown off course.
The trip has also been clouded by confusion over Buckingham Palace accommodation and by Harry’s court defeat against Associated Newspapers, though he drew a warm reception at a Birmingham children’s hospital on Thursday.
