The Decision Behind Meghan Markle's England Visit Without Archie
Hey there, friends. So, you may have heard that Meghan Markle is planning to join her husband, Prince Harry, in England for the annual Commonwealth Day Service on Saturday, March 7. But guess what? Baby Archie won't be tagging along. According to a royal insider who spoke exclusively to Closer Weekly, there are a few important reasons why the couple decided to leave their little one behind.
Let’s break it down. First off, Archie is doing just great in Canada. He's settled into a comfortable routine, and Meghan and Harry don’t want to disrupt that. They’re also super protective of their son and want to shield him from the chaos of the spotlight. London is a city that’s crawling with paparazzi, so keeping Archie away from all that madness is a priority for them. Oh, and let's not forget the coronavirus concerns. With schools in the U.K. closing left and right due to the pandemic, Harry and Meghan aren’t willing to take any chances with their baby’s health.
Why They Had to Leave Archie Behind
It’s tough to leave your kid behind, but Harry and Meghan believe this is the best decision for Archie. With their jam-packed schedules in the U.K., they wouldn’t have much time to spend quality moments with him anyway. And let’s face it, no parent wants to be away from their child for too long, especially when they’re so young. But they know this is what’s best for Archie’s well-being and development.

Coronavirus Concerns in the U.K.
On February 27, Prince George and Princess Charlotte’s school, Thomas’s Battersea, announced they were testing students for coronavirus. With Archie staying put in Canada, Queen Elizabeth might be a little bummed out since she’s eager to spend time with her great-grandson. But hey, she gets it. She understands Harry and Meghan are doing what’s best for their son.
Queen Elizabeth's Feelings on Harry and Meghan's Decision
Here’s the deal: Queen Elizabeth, at 93 years old, still misses her grandson Harry. Despite all the drama surrounding his decision to step back from royal duties, she doesn’t want him to feel alienated from the family. In fact, during a sit-down meeting with Harry on March 1, the queen discussed his new life in Canada. She reassured him that he’s always welcome back if he ever changes his mind about living in North America.
