His death sparked speculation that the Duke of Sussex might see his estranged brother Prince William for the first time since his memoir Spare.
But the Sun understands Prince Harry and Meghan Markle will not attend Lord Robert’s funeral amid the ongoing battle with the Home Office.
The Sussexes were deprived of their round-the-clock protection when they stepped back from royal duties in 2020.
Lord Robert helped the Queen through her “annus horribilis” in 1992, when the royals were plagued by a series of problems.
That year, Prince Charles fell out with Diana, Prince Andrew separated from Sarah Ferguson, Princess Anne divorced, and Windsor Castle was destroyed by fire.
He was later forced to deny Harrods owner Mohammed al Fayed’s bizarre claims that he was behind Diana’s 1997 car crash.
It turns out that Harry and Meghan have confirmed a new “royal” tour just months after their “memorable” visit to Nigeria.
They were personally invited to spend a few days in Colombia by the country’s vice president, Francia Márquez.
Your schedule will include trips to the capital Bogotá and the Pacific regions of Cartagena and Cali.
The pair are set to “experience Colombia’s rich heritage” on a significant visit just before a conference on ending violence against children is held there.
Francia Márquez said of the planned trip: “I am pleased to announce that Prince Harry and Meghan, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, have kindly accepted my invitation to visit our beautiful country.
“During their trip, the Duke and Duchess will join me to visit Bogotá, as well as the Caribbean and Pacific regions of Cartagena and Cali.
“In these vibrant locations, you will have the exceptional opportunity to interact with leaders, young people and women who embody the aspirations and voices of Colombians committed to progress.
“His visit comes at a particularly significant time, as it precedes the first Global Ministerial Conference on Ending Violence against Children, which will take place in Colombia next November.
PIERS MORGAN One word comes to mind when I think of the deluded Meghan and Harry ‘hopping’ on a fake royal tour of Colombia
By Piers Morgan
My favorite theater review of all time was about a play called: Why?
The critic wrote one word: “Exactly.”
I thought about this when I heard that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex will embark on a four-day trip to Colombia this Thursday.
They are going at the invitation of the country’s first black vice-president, Francia Márquez, who said the renegade royal duo “have the exceptional opportunity to engage with the elders, the young and the women who embody the aspirations and voices of Colombians …and shine a light on Colombia’s role as a beacon of culture and innovation.”
Meghan and Harry are not currently royals.
They do not fulfill any real duties to the institution that conferred their titles – they just line their pockets with money in America, constantly destroying their families, and the monarchy, in the media.
So, what gives them the right to roam the world pretending to be members of royalty, on quasi-official visits?
There are so many things wrong with this.
First, the ridiculous hypocrisy of going to one of the most dangerous places in the world — UK and US government websites warn travelers to Colombia about the high risk of terrorism, kidnapping, rape and robbery — after all the demands Harry’s tears to the taxpayer. funded royal security when he came to the UK to “protect his family”.
Secondly, his decision to support a Colombian government that has been plagued by scandals since coming to power.
President Gustavo Petro, a radical socialist who once fought in a rebel guerrilla group, saw his foreign minister suspended for alleged corruption, his son Nicolas accused of pocketing money from drug traffickers destined for his father’s presidential campaign, and his brother Juan accused of seeking payments from arrested drug traffickers in exchange for legal benefits from the government.
Petro has also faced recent allegations that he cheated on his wife with a transgender TV presenter.
As for her vice-president, there has been growing public outrage over her hypocrisy for being Colombia’s Equality Minister and, at the same time, using luxury helicopters as taxis and spending millions on a new house where she now lives, instead of her own. official residence.
Opposition politician Miguel Polo Polo posted on X: “Francia Marquez is the biggest fraud in our black community.
“She has been in office for two years and has done nothing, just played the victim and traveled in a helicopter.”
Sound familiar?
But what irritates me most is the Sussexes’ delusion that they can somehow function as a rival royal family on the global stage, enjoying all the benefits of that royal status but without any need to fulfill their obligations to their king. and country.
It is completely unacceptable and unsustainable for estranged members of the Royal Family to undertake official trips like this.
The King should strip Meghan and Harry of the titles they so cynically exchange, and instruct palace officials to tell the heads of foreign governments that they must stop issuing formal invitations for trips of this nature to this greedy, two-faced pair who want to have your royal cake and eat it.
“The Archewell Foundation, founded by the Duke and Duchess, is known for its global leadership in promoting a safer online environment.
“The upcoming conference will reveal a comprehensive framework for creating safer physical and digital spaces, addressing issues such as cyberbullying, online exploitation and the mental health impacts of these threats.
“It will offer viable solutions and commitments to countries around the world.”
Vice President Márquez added that she is “confident” that the Sussexes’ visit “will shine a light on Colombia’s role as a beacon of culture and innovation.”
It will be Harry and Meghan’s second “faux royal trip” after visiting Nigeria in May.
The couple spent three days in the West African country, meeting with residents and local leaders.
While there, they revealed a partnership between the Archewell Foundation and non-profit organization Giants of Africa, which aims to empower young people through sport.
The couple soon returned to the United States after attending a charity match at the Lagos Polo Club.
Before that, Harry, 39, had played basketball with a group of young Nigerians.
