The Queen is reportedly looking forward to seeing the Sussexes with their children, but Charles’ friends fear that if their visit coincides with Jubilee weekend it will distract from the Queen’s milestone.

Royals fear any plans for Harry and Meghan to return to the UK with their children for the Platinum Jubilee weekend could overshadow the Queen’s special event, it has been reported.

The couple are currently in the Netherlands for the Invictus Games, having made a secret visit to Windsor Castle earlier this week.

High-level sources say the top-secret visit is believed to be an attempt by Harry, 37, and Meghan, 40, to ensure they are “front and center” during Jubilee events in June.

The couple’s daughter Lilibet has never met her family in Britain, and their son Archie has not visited the UK since November 2019.

The Queen is reportedly looking forward to seeing the Sussexes with their children, but friends of Charles fear that if their visit coincides with Jubilee weekend it could distract from the Queen’s milestone, The sun reports.

A source said: “Charles wants the Platinum Jubilee to focus solely on the Queen.

“Many are disappointed that Andrew has overshadowed Prince Philip’s thanksgiving service and don’t want the Meghan and Harry circus to hijack the Jubilee.

“This is the Queen’s show and should be about her and her 70 years of service rather than the fashion of Meghan, the children and Harry.

“They don’t want this to become the Harry and Meghan show. Charles and the whole family agree on that.

Harry and Meghan are currently being filmed at the Invictus Games as part of their £113million deal with Netflix, which will show exclusive behind-the-scenes footage from the Games when the documentary airs.

Because of the show, the royal family fears that Netflix will push to film the Sussexes at the Queen is the celebration.

An insider added: “The Royal Family will be monitoring Invictus events this week regarding where Netflix will be when Jubilee rolls around.

“They’ll want to film behind the scenes or be in the crowd at Jubilee as the best footage for the documentary.”

It’s unclear if Netflix or Harry and Meghan have made Jubilee plans yet.

Harry and Meghan’s appearance at the Invictus Games today comes after their secret visit to Windsor Castle earlier this week.

Harry is thought to have arranged the reunion at short notice and arrived on Wednesday to stay at Frogmore Cottage before reuniting with Prince Charles and the Queen.

His meeting with Father Charles was said to have been brief as the 73-year-old royal was busy preparing for the Maundy Thursday service where he stood in for the Queen.

According to an insider, the couple’s meeting with Prince Charles was “reluctant” and they were “not exactly welcomed with open arms”.

However, another said: ‘Charles maintains that Harry is still a much loved son.

After Charles and Camilla left the meeting, Harry and Meghan then spoke to the Queen for a much longer period, between 10:30 a.m. and 1 p.m.

Prince William was not at Windsor Castle to meet his brother as he would be on a skiing holiday with Kate and their children.

Last night Meghan left Harry on the verge of tears after paying a loving tribute to her ‘amazing husband’ and sharing a sweet kiss at the Invictus Games.

The couple attended the opening ceremony of the Games in The Hague on Saturday evening, arriving at the event hand in hand.

Harry looked smart in a gray suit with an open collared shirt while Meghan teamed dark trousers with a £620 off-the-shoulder white suit by Khaite and a £12,800 Cartier necklace.

They both addressed the crowd in the arena at the opening ceremony, with Meghan taking the stage first.

She said to the crowd: “Good evening everyone. We are very grateful to the Netherlands for welcoming us and hosting the Invictus Games.

“One thing I know for sure is that every moment it took to get here will be worth it.

“Because it is here at the Invictus Games that we honor your years of service on the pitch and your continued service to your country, your family and your community off the pitch.

“Thank you so much for your service and thank you to all of the family and friends who are here and who have supported you along the way because this is service, this is dedication and this is the Invictus family.
