Many believe the queen’s oldest son, Prince Charles, had already arrived at Balmoral Castle with his wife, Camilla Parker Bowles. Prince Harry recently stopped by the U.K. on his way to Germany, where he kicked off the upcoming Invictus Games. The royal is now heading to Balmoral, but Meghan Markle didn’t accompany him.
