This is what happened to Prince Harry the day Queen Elizabeth died

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were in England when news of the Queen's health broke, and they were not at the center of the plan following the Queen's Death. First, they were not allowed to fly to Balmoral on a royal plane, and Prince Harry's uniform was removed.

They then appeared to be uninvited to a state party for foreign leaders at Buckingham Palace.

When the Duke of Sussex woke up at Frogmore Cottage on Thursday, September 8, his diary was neatly laid out. It was scheduled that evening for him and Meghan to attend the WellChild Awards. Following that, a flight back to California to see Archie and Lilibet, his kids. He looked forward to reaching out to the family and caregivers of the terminally ill patient and starting again what he loved most of his life: making children, one of his favorite supporters, smile.


On September 15, the Sussexes could easily celebrate Harry's birthday at home according to the plan. All of that had to change by mid-Thursday morning.

At Balmoral, it was evident that things had to get done by Thursday morning. Beginnings of the operation code-named "London Bridge" were underway.

There was already high speculation that Harry was relenting on his stance that flying to Balmoral was too risky because of the Sussexes' lack of security. Fanciful was the idea that he could slip into Scotland without alarm.

Prince Charles contacted both Prince William and Prince Harry to come. It didn't matter when the elder and younger were told, one source insisted, denying reports that they were told to come "some time" apart.

The Duke of Cambridge, who had constitutional duties as one of the Queen's Counselors of State blended with his role as a grandson, put together a hastily-formed plan with the Duchess, agreeing that she would be best placed to meet their three children on their first full day at their new school and explain what was happening around them.

The nation had taken a collective breath after Nadhim Zahawi passed a note to UK PM Liz Truss outlining the Queen's health decline - broadcast live and then shared on social media.



Before 2 pm, their spokeswoman announced that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex would travel to Scotland. It turned out that the Duchess would not go.

Having spoken with his father again, Prince Harry found out the spouses, including the Duchess of Cambridge, weren't going.

Around 3 pm, text messages warned the good and the great that Operation London Bridge might need to be implemented sooner rather than later.

At 4.30 pm, the Prime Minister was informed of the Queen's Death. At 6.30 pm, it was announced to the public.

Initially, Prince Harry was reported to have learned of his grandmother's Death when his father called him five minutes before landing.

According to reports, the Prince was aware that his father was trying to get in touch with him, but he read a breaking news announcement online before speaking with his father.
