Meghan Markle is said to have felt a “lot of sadness” when she couldn’t take part in the planned engagements during Prince Harry‘s UK visit last week.
The Duchess of Sussex, 44, had been scheduled to join her husband at a one-year-to-go Invictus event at Birmingham’s NEC, but security concerns prevented her from taking part as planned, and she didn’t end up attending any public-facing engagements.
Now, a source tells People that she is “very supportive” of Harry, meaning that she felt a “lot of sadness” in not being able to be by his side.
When it comes to his family, another insider said, Meghan “always lets him lead” as he navigates conflicts with his father, King Charles, and estranged brother, Prince William.

Appearing on the latest episode of HELLO!‘s A Right Royal Podcast, Simon Vigar, a royal commentator and author of The Four Wives of Windsor, touched on whether this will set a precedent for future visits.
“Who knows? I don’t know,” he replied when asked his thoughts. “I would have thought they’d come over once a year for the time being. Christmas is difficult, isn’t it?
“Because that then brings William and Catherine into it. And that rift is still very much ongoing, which is a terrible shame. But, maybe once or twice a year, they’ll come over.”
