Queen ‘deeply hurt’ as ‘publicity hungry’ Meghan & Harry choose Holland trip over Philip’s memorial for Netflix cameras
THE QUEEN is said to be "deeply hurt" after "publicity-hungry" Meghan and Harry chose to go to Holland over Prince Philip's memorial.
Meghan, 40, will join Harry at his Invictus Games in Holland in her first trip out of America since Megxit - and the pair will be followed around by Netflix cameras.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex will both be in The Hague for the opening ceremony of Harry's games for wounded soldiers on Saturday.
It will be the first time the couple have been together in Europe since Megxit two years ago.
But royal experts have claimed that this is a "snub" to the Queen - after they refused to attend Prince Philip's memorial just days ago.
And despite it being "unnecessary" for Meghan to be at the Invictus Games, she "wouldn't want to miss out on the publicity," it's been claimed.

Royal expert Angela Levin told The Sun Online: "‘I think it's truly shocking.
"I think the royal family are deeply hurt, but that's precisely what they must want, otherwise, they wouldn't act like that.
"We saw the queen, you can't help but feel desperately sorry for her, she would have loved to have Harry there for the day.
"I just think it's unbelievable.

"Meghan is going because they're doing the next Netflix documentary.
"They're going with cameras, and she wouldn't want to miss out on the publicity.
"It's such snub, you cannot believe that Harry is the same person as he was in 2018 when I met him.
"It looks as if he's been somewhat brainwashed to hate his family."
Meghan has not stepped foot in the UK since she flew out just hours after a tense Commonwealth Day Ceremony with royals in March 2020.
ALL FOR THE CAMERAS
Harry has twice been back home since Megxit for Prince Philip's funeral last April and the unveiling of a statue for Princess Diana in the summer.
Reports of the couple's transatlantic plans come as the Duke of Sussex remains embroiled in a legal row with the UK Government over his police protection.
He claimed he didn't feel safe to return without Scotland Yard cops alongside him - meaning he controversially missed Prince Philip's memorial at Westminster Abbey.
Regardless, Harry and Meghan will be flying to the Netherlands for the Games, which take place between April 16 and 22.
And the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are set to be followed a Netflix documentary crew throughout.
It is not the first time the couple has reportedly partnered with the streaming giant after their £120m Netflix deal TV series deal.
