Harry and Meghan wanted to fly to America on Air Force One

Prince Harry (38) and Duchess Meghan (41) wanted to make a special trip after the funeral of Queen Elizabeth II (1926-2022): As “Daily Mail” reportedThe Sussexes asked none other than US President Joe Biden, 80, for a flight.

According to the paper, Harry and Meghan wanted to accompany Biden and his presidential plane, the world-famous Air Force One, back to the US – which they were denied, the newspaper writes. Accordingly, the White House reportedly rejected the request because it would cause “uproar.”

The White House does not want to spoil relations with Charles

Earlier, Harry and Meghan were said to have been dropped off from a pre-funeral reception at Buckingham Palace ahead of the funeral. There, King Charles (74) and Queen Camilla (76) welcomed foreign royals and heads of state, including Joe and Jill Biden (72). Harry and Meghan were reportedly told that only “working members of the royal family” would be welcome.

Amid these events, the couple’s staff reportedly contacted the White House to ask if Meghan and Harry could fly back to the US on Air Force One. “It would have caused such a stir. It would have strained relations with the palace and the new monarch,” the Daily Mail quoted a source as saying.
