ROYAL watchers were convinced Prince Harry visited the UK this week without his wife Meghan Markle – but they were wrong.
The Duchess of Sussex actually flew into London this week, but decided to remain seated at Heathrow Airport, and didn't leave.
Relaxing in the VIP Windsor Suite, the mum-of-two and former working member of the Royal Family was waiting for her husband.

Harry attended several events in the capital, connected to his work with the Invictus Games – but he didn't visit his father, King Charles.
His Majesty had a packed schedule, and the pair couldn't find the time to see each other, the same goes for Prince William.
But when Harry was finished, he returned to Heathrow to meet Meghan before they boarded their connecting flight to Nigeria.
It was thought she'd flown from the US to meet Harry in the African country, but it turns out Meghan jetted off from England too.

ITV News royal editor Chris Ship tweeted: "Meghan did actually visit the UK.
"Although if she stayed airside at Heathrow, was she 'technically' in country? She flew from LA and met Harry in the VIP Windsor Suite (yes it is called the Windsor suite).
"They then travelled to Nigeria without Harry seeing dad or brother."
Harry's spokesperson told SundayStar.co.uk that any meeting would "unfortunately not be possible due to His Majesty's full programme".
"The Duke of course is understanding of his father's diary of commitments and various other priorities and hopes to see him soon," they said.
