How long are Meghan and Harry in UK for and which Jubilee events are they attending?

The long weekend for the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee starts tomorrow (June 2).

Celebrations will take place over four days across the UK in recognition of the Queen’s 70-year reign.

As part of the celebrations, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are making a highly anticipated return to the UK.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex relocated to the US in 2020, but will visit the UK for the Jubilee alongside their children Archie and Lilibet.

Following the announcement of their return, speculation has been mounting about their plans during their visit to the UK.

Here’s everything we know about their stay so far.

Harry and Meghan will be present in the UK for the entire four-day Jubilee celebrations from June 2 to June 5.

Their exact arrival and departure dates haven’t been confirmed yet, but as the celebrations begin tomorrow it’s likely that their arrival will happen very soon.

It’s believed that Harry and Meghan will return to their former home Frogmore Cottage for their stay in the UK.

It was recently reported that the couple had extended their lease on Frogmore Cottage for another year, leading some to believe that the Sussexes are planning to spend more time in the UK.

The Trooping the Colour parade will be kicking off the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations on June 2, but it's as yet unknown whether Harry and Meghan will be playing any role at the event.

Following the parade, it is tradition for members of the Royal Family to appear on the balcony of Buckingham Palace.

However, it was recently confirmed that Harry and Meghan - and shamed Prince Andrew - won’t be joining the rest of the royals on the balcony because they are no longer working members.

The first Jubilee event that the pair are expected to attend is the Service of Thanksgiving to the Queen, which will take place at St Paul’s Cathedral on Friday June 3.

They’re also expected to attend the BBC ’s Party At The Palace on Saturday evening.

Harry and Meghan’s daughter Lilibet is also celebrating her first birthday on Saturday.

The Queen is yet to formally meet the pair’s youngest child, but it has been reported that she is set to spend some time with the family to celebrate Lilibet's birthday on June 4.
