‘Lonely’: Prince Harry’s heartbreaking admission after Queen’s death

A grieving Prince Harry made an emotional admission to onlookers at Windsor Castle about life without the Queen.

Prince Harry told mourners “it’s a lonely place up there now without her” as he met crowds of wellwishers outside Windsor Castle.

Harry and his wife Meghan Markle were joined in an emotional reunion with his brother William and Kate Middleton as they greeted mourners this afternoon.

The Duke of Sussex quickly arrived back in London from Balmoral following the tragic passing of her majesty the Queen on Thursday local time, The Sun reported.

Harry was consoled by his wife Meghan as the “fab four” reunited outside Windsor Castle today. In a show of unity after years of speculated rifts, the brothers arrived in the same car to greet wellwishers.

“Every room she was in, we felt her presence throughout,” he added.

As the royals viewed tributes to the Queen, the Duchess of Sussex put a comforting arm around Harry as the couple grieved with the nation.

Body language expert Judie James said: “It’s comforting to see Meghan’s supportive touches on the back and partial hugs for a clearly upset Harry”.

William, who with Kate was last night given the title Prince and Princess of Wales by King Charles, was the one to offer the olive branch to his younger brother that led to today’s touching scenes.

William’s official spokesperson confirmed he invited Harry and Meghan to observe the tributes to the Queen this afternoon.

It comes after King Charles III yesterday expressed his “love” for Harry and Meghan in his first address to the nation.

The sentiment came as Harry solemnly returned to Frogmore Cottage after tragically arriving in Scotland too late to say goodbye to the Queen.

The Duke of Sussex is expected to stay in the UK until his grandmother’s funeral, but was sadly delayed as he dashed to Balmoral in an attempt to be by the Queen’s side.

As Harry and Will joined their father Charles in London, several other members of the royal family remained in Balmoral, attending a memorial service for the Queen today at nearby Crathie Kirk church.
