Prince Harry boards plane after Queen Elizabeth death

Prince Harry boarded a plane at Aberdeen Airport on Friday morning, making him the first member of the royal family to leave Balmoral after Queen Elizabeth’s death.

He is reportedly taking a British Airways flight and was escorted to the plane by airport staff after it was originally believed he would take a private jet.

Harry did not make it to Balmoral in time to see his grandmother before she died at the age of 96.

Meghan Markle didn’t join Prince Harry at Balmoral ahead of Queen Elizabeth II’s passing because she may have feared she wouldn’t be “warmly welcomed” by the royal family.

While initial reports stated that the Duchess of Sussex would join the redheaded royal in Scotland, Page Six later confirmed that she didn’t make the trip with him.

He and Meghan Markle did not appear publicly at the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee in June. They did introduce their 1-year-old daughter, Lilibet, to the Queen in a closed-door meeting.
