Meghan and Harry seen together in Europe for first time since Megxit

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle arrived in the Netherlands today for their first European trip together since Megxit.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle arrived in the Netherlands today for their first European trip together since Megxit.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex – who yesterday met the Queen and Prince Charles in secret – were welcomed by cheering competitors at the Invictus Games site.

The couple were pictured walking hand-in-hand towards a friends-and-family reception at the Zuiderpark, where the games are being held.

They were both seen beaming as they greeted competitors and officials, having not been on that side of the Atlantic together since 2020.

Harry wore a navy suit while Meghan wore a white tailored Valentino jacket and trousers – worth $5800 – and matching $3800 handbag.

The couple also reportedly had their Netflix documentary crew in tow, who stood apart from the dozens of photographers covering the arrival.

The Sussexes met with the Ukraine team at the tournament for injured military veterans shortly before the reception.

Harry was pictured holding a calendar as he spoke to those around him while Meghan smiled at another member of the group behind.

At one point Meghan waved towards the press pen and she and Harry placed their hands on one another’s backs in a show of support.

The duchess, 40, was also seen giving one Dutch Invictus Games competitor her jacket to keep her baby warm on the walk into the reception.

Harry and Meghan last year signed a mega Netflix deal said to be worth almost $200 million.

Their first Netflix project was announced as an Invictus Games documentary with an Oscar-winning production team.

The Sussexes flew to the Netherlands for the Games, which take place between April 16 and 22, and are expected to be followed by a camera crew throughout their trip.

But critics have accused them of “cashing in” on the event and “exploiting” Her Majesty by allowing filmmakers into private meetings.

Royal commentator Tom Bower told MailOnline after the couple’s hush-hush talks yesterday: “I have no doubt it was all done for their Netflix documentary.

“The Queen’s advisers failed to protect her from being exploited by the Royal Family’s worst traducers, while the Sussexes exploited an old, unwell woman to boost their credibility and coffers.”

Harry and Meg met with Her Majesty and Charles as part of their whistlestop tour to Windsor Castle – their first British trip together since Megxit.

They arrived just weeks after snubbing Prince Philip’s memorial service.

But it is not known if the couple brought their son Archie, two, and 11-month-old daughter Lilibet — who the Queen has never met.

Harry and Meghan are said to have been given “VVIP” status by Dutch police for their visit, and are reportedly being guarded by a “high-level multi-agency protection program”.

It comes amid Harry’s ongoing legal battle with the British Government after he was stripped of his taxpayer-funded Met Police armed guards when he quit royal duty.

The couple have been assured there is “no credible threat” to their safety and they will be impeccably looked after by Dutch security.
