Prince Harry and Meghan Markle reportedly asked to fly back to the U.S. on Air Force One after Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral in September, but their request was denied.

According to the Daily Mail, sources said the White House chose not to have Harry and Meghan on the U.S. President’s plane in case it caused a “commotion.” The late Queen died at age 96 on September 8, 2022, and her funeral was held on September 19.
