Harry & Meghan will make trip to Nigeria after duke’s UK visit – but she ‘shows no interest’ in joining him in Britain
PRINCE Harry and Meghan Markle will head to Nigeria next month after the duke visits the UK.
The couple will take part in “cultural activities” after they were invited by the west African country’s chief of defence staff.
It comes as Harry will return to the UK for the Invictus Games Foundation’s 10th Anniversary in just days.
An Invictus Games spokesperson confirmed the Duke will arrive at the Service of Thanksgiving at St Paul’s Cathedral on Wednesday 8th May.
It will be his first time in Britain since Princess Kate announced she is receiving treatment for cancer on March 22.
Meghan’s attendance has not been confirmed yet, alongside their children Archie and Lilibet.
An insider said Meghan had “shown no interest” in coming back to the UK.
However Meghan, who is of Nigerian descent, will join him afterwards as they head to Africa.
The couple will meet service members and their families, and participate in traditional cultural activities, according to Nigerian media.
It will be Meghan and Harry’s first trip to Nigeria as a couple.
Meg, 42, has joined Harry at his games in Toronto, Sydney, The Hague and Dusseldorf – and the one-year-out launch party for Vancouver.
However, she has not been seen in the UK since attending Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral in September 2022.
She turned down an invite to the King’s Coronation as it clashed with Archie’s fourth birthday.
It is not known where the duke will be staying on his visit but he is homeless in the UK after being evicted last summer from Frogmore Cottage.
It comes as there has been speculation on the possibility of a reunion between Harry, the King, and Prince William.
The Invictus Games service runs from 5pm until 6.30pm which clashes with the first Buckingham Palace garden held between 3pm and 6pm.
With King Charles announcing he is fit and well enough to return to public-facing duties, the lavish outdoor bash could be on the cards.
Prince William, 41, could also appear at the first of two palace garden parties and the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh and Princess Anne are also possible star guests.
The Princess of Wales, 42, who is undergoing cancer treatment, is not expected to attend.
