The reason why Meghan Markle will not attend the funeral of Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh
The American actress has stayed in Los Angeles with hers, her son Archie, while Prince Harry has traveled to London.
Last Friday, Felipe, the Duke of Edinburgh, died at the age of 99, who asked that no act be done in style, but a discreet funeral. A ceremony that will take place on April 17 at 3:00 p.m. (local time), and that will have a very important absence, that of Meghan Markle.
This Sunday, Prince Harry landed at Heathrow airport, which is located on the outskirts of London, just to attend the funeral of his grandfather, who had the detail of going with him to his brother, William, to the funeral by Lady Di.
The reason why the actress does not attend
The American actress will not attend the funeral of her husband's grandfather for various reasons. The first one may be due to the fact that the maximum number of attendees at the event is only 30 people.
But the other reason is because she is in a very advanced stage of pregnancy, and this prevents her from making such a long trip between the United States and the United Kingdom, since in total it would be a little more than ten hours of flight if it is non-stop. And it is that he has not even received permission from his doctor, as confirmed by sources close to the Dukes of Sussex, who point out that the doctor was not for the task of allowing Meghan's flight despite the fact that she has done everything Do my best to travel with Harry.
A birth facing summer
According to her latest medical reports, the little girl will arrive at the end of this spring or early summer. This means that Meghan Markle is six months old, already in the third trimester of her pregnancy, when trans-oceanic flights are not recommended for that state. So both she and Archie have stayed at her home in Los Angeles.
