Prince Harry and Meghan arrivesin Nigeria after ‘second Charles snub’ in UK – latest

The couple flew to the country in a Boeing 777 after Meghan met Harry at Heathrow Airport following her decision to skip the UK celebrations of the 10th anniversary of his Invictus Games.

According to reports, they are staying at the Transcorp Hilton in Abuja, where the presidential suite costs £600 a night.

The five-star hotel has a pool, spa, and picturesque views of the mountains surrounding the Nigerian capital.

It is also in a top central location, allowing the couple to easily travel to the events they are set to attend on their three-day visit.

The couple are set to visit a school before meeting with injured service people at a hospital as part of events marking the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games.

Other events include a training session for a charity that works with the games, Nigeria: Unconquered, and a reception honouring military families.

The Invictus Games, which was established by Prince Harry in 2014, gives wounded, injured and sick service people a chance to showcase their sporting talents.

Harry and Meghan will also visit a basketball camp and a polo fundraiser.

According to reports, the couple were invited to Nigeria by the country’s chief of defence staff who were said to be “delighted” when they accepted the invitation.

Harry meanwhile was joined by Diana’s siblings, Lady Jane Fellowes and Earl Spencer, and former army officer Mark Dyer, who supported him after the Princess of Wales’s death.

The Duke of Sussex, 39, flew from the UK which he briefly visited alone to mark the anniversary of the event he founded in 2014.

He arrived on Tuesday afternoon (7 May) and proceeded to suffer two apparent snubs from his family.

The first was the news that his father, King Charles, was allegedly too busy to see his youngest son after returning to work last week.

The second snub came in the form of the news that Prince Wiliam is soon to be made colonel-in-chief of Harry’s old military regiment, the Army Air Corps.

Harry appeared to put on a brave face at the UK thanksgiving ceremony he attended on Wednesday without his immediate family.

He smiled for the public well-wishers who turned up to see his first public-facing event in some time and he was supported at the ceremony by various members of the Spencer family.

A new bombshell documentary about Prince Harry and Meghan Markle is in the works.

According to reports, it will reveal “fresh secrets” about the lives of the former working royals.

Produced by a German TV production company, it will be based on the findings of journalist Ulrike Grunewald, who travelled to California to find out more about the couple by conducting an investigation in their Montecito neighbourhood.

One of those interviewed is former Fleet Street royal reporter Richard Mineards, who said he was “grilled” about the couple.

“Los Angeles-based producer Melanie Hillmann grilled me for two hours on my Riven Rock neighbours, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, under director Ulrike Grunewald,” he revealed.

“The interview is airing in due course as part of a prime-time documentary on ZDF Royal.”

A body language expert has claimed Prince Harry was relieved by the warm reception he received at the Invictus Games thanksgiving ceremony.

Psychologist Judi James said Harry’s initial posture suggested he had some degree of “anxiety” about how people would react to him on his first public-facing appearance in some time.

“[His] lack of body engagement probably [gave] him the option of a face-saving exit if his reception [was] less than warm,” she told the MailOnline.

“Harry’s wreathed grin with eye crinkling suggests he might be excited and relieved to meet fans in the UK.”
