With the 2025 Trooping the Colour just hours away, royal observers are once again pointing out the absence of Harry and Meghan — a pattern that appears to be part of a significant message the Royals send year after year.
Harry and Meghan's Last Balcony Appearance Dates Back to 2019
The last time Harry and Meghan joined the Royal Family on the Buckingham Palace balcony for Trooping the Colour was in 2019, just a month after the birth of their son, Archie. Since then, their absence has been consistent — and telling.
Royals Send Subtle Yet Strong Signals Through Event Invitations
Royal commentator Richard Eden previously revealed that in 2023, Harry was completely left out of the invite list for the first time in his life. According to Eden, the fact that the Royals send no invitation was a significant message aimed at drawing a line between working royals and those who stepped back from official duties.
Initial Hope for Unity Fades Over Time
After Harry and Meghan moved to the U.S. and gave up their senior roles, royal insiders say there was initial optimism that they would still be included in key events like Trooping the Colour. However, the continued lack of participation seems to confirm that the Royals send a consistent, quiet signal of disapproval.
Significant Message in the Form of Silence
As Eden noted during a 2023 TV appearance, “This is the first year of his life that Harry has not been invited at all.” That silence from the Palace, especially ahead of Trooping the Colour, is being interpreted as more than just protocol — it's a deliberate and significant message that the Royals send without words.
Royal Fans Expect Another No-Show in 2025
Now, with the 2025 Trooping the Colour hours away, many fans and royal experts are convinced that Harry and Meghan will again be missing from the celebrations. The pattern is hard to ignore, and it underscores how the Royals send subtle, yet firm, messages through these high-profile omissions.
Trooping the Colour Becomes a Marker of Royal Division
Once seen as a family celebration, Trooping the Colour has now become a public reminder of the deep rift between the monarchy and Harry and Meghan. With every year that passes, and every unspoken exclusion, the Royals send what many see as a deliberately significant message.
