Meghan Markle to join the Queen for busy day of royal engagements next week – her first WITHOUT Harry
MEGHAN Markle is set for a busy day of royal engagements next week - but will join the Queen instead of her husband.
The new Duchess of Sussex will accompany the Queen at a theatre opening and a lunch in Chester next week.
The pair will have a jam-packed schedule as the 36-year-old new royal and her grandmother-in-law will also open the Mersey Gateway Bridge.
This will be Meghan's first official event without Prince Harry by her side.
The newly married couple haven't been seen in public since Prince Charles' 70th birthday bash - where the loved-up pair seemed very much in the honeymoon phase.
Meghan kept a protective hand on her new husband's back and giggled when a bee stole the limelight during his heartfelt speech to his dad.
But after a few days absence it is thought they will appear on the Buckingham Palace balcony with the rest of the family during the Trooping of the Colour on Saturday.
They are believed to have gone on their honeymoon to Canada, although this has not been confirmed.
The destination was heavily rumoured to be Jasper Park Lodge in Alberta's Jasper National Park.
The Fairmont hotel was linked to the regal couple after website TMZ suggested they would tuck themselves away in a luxury six-room lodge.
The royal couple delayed their honeymoon, so they could get back to work quickly after the wedding last month.
The Sun revealed that chat-show superstar James Corden — who was compering the event — instigated an extraordinary dance routine on the big day which featured Prince Charles, Prince William and Harry.
The royal couple chose I Wanna Dance With Somebody as their first dance at the fun-filled, early-hours wedding bash.
