Harry and Meghan were once again absent during the Queen’s four-day ceremony Platinum Jubilee concluded on Sunday.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have maintained a low profile over the long bank holiday weekend, honoring Her Majesty’s record-breaking 70-year reign.
He made the briefest appearance on Thursday, watching Trooping the Color from the Major General’s office while looking out towards the Horse Guards Parade.
Meghan was photographed having fun with some of the younger royal children, while she and her husband were seen chatting with the Queen’s cousin, the Duke of Kent.
But they did not join the other senior members of the family on the balcony of Buckingham Palace for the Jubilee flypast due to their new status as non-working royals.
The couple were later seen walking through London as Meghan smiled at the fun-loving people from the open car window.
On Friday he First public appearance with Windsor since leaving office two years ago.
The Sussexes were overjoyed as scores of family members attended the special Thanksgiving Jubilee service at St Paul’s Cathedral.
But they sat far away from Charles, William and Kate and there were no obvious signs of a conversation between them.
The couple later skipped the Guildhall reception for the royals, instead heading straight to Frogmore Cottage.
Harry and Meghan reportedly threw a birthday party on Saturday to celebrate the birthday of their daughter Lillibet.
They are said to have held an informal gathering at the royal estate after a spokesman for the couple said they would rather spend the day privately than attend the party at the Palace.
The Duke and Duchess are believed to have stayed with their children that night in Windsor, accompanied by the Queen, who watched a platinum party on television at the palace.
And there was no sign of him at the People’s pageant on Sunday, when Her Majesty delighted the crowd by making a surprise second appearance on the balcony.
Speaking to Sky News, Hello magazine’s royal editor Emily Nash said Harry and Meghan’s attendance at the jubilee celebrations had gone ‘without a hitch’.
She said: ‘There was some concern that the arrival of Harry and Meghan could affect things, simply because of the scrutiny that will be placed on the family and the dynamics between them.
‘But he kept a very low profile, didn’t attend some major events, and would still have had the chance to spend some time with the Queen.
‘It’s great [the Queen], Family is everything to her, so I am sure she would be overjoyed to see him again.
