A private conversation between Prince Harry and Meghan Markle has been decoded by lip readers – and they claim it gives a telling insight on their plot to quit the Royal Family
Harry and Meghan attend Remembrance Sunday service in 2018
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle sent shockwaves around the world exactly six years ago when they dramatically announced they were quitting their royal roles. But it seems one telling comment between the couple has led experts to believe they had been plotting their departure from the Royal Family years before they relocated to California.
The seemingly confidential conversation occurred between the Sussexes at a Service of Remembrance at Westminster Abbey in 2018, just six months after their star-studded wedding in Windsor Castle. The couple was joined in the Abbey by the entire Frim, including the late Queen Elizabeth to honour fallen servicemen and women, and to mark the Centenary of the Armistice.

According to the Channel 5 documentary, Lip-Reading The Royals: The Secret Conversations, as Harry and Meghan sat and waited for the ceremony to begin, they started conversing and taking in the situation, with Meghan asking Harry a very serious question.
Lip reading expert Nicola Hickling decoded the conversation for the programme, as she claimed Meghan instructed Harry to “take advantage of the situation”, before she turned to look around at the sea of royals that surrounded them.
She says Harry responded to her comment by asking: “Today?”, as Meghan added: “Do it tonight.” Then, Harry poses a question to Meghan, asking: “You do realise that this is the end?” as Meghan responds: “Yeah, I do know”.
It is then suggested by royal historian Dr Tessa Dunlop that the seemingly private comments between the Sussexes could mean that the couple had been plotting their dramatic exit from the royal family years before they actually decided to call it quits.
Despite having the cryptic conversation at the end of 2018, their first child Prince Archie was born just six months later, as they remained in senior working royal positions for a further eight months after becoming parents.
The Sussexes announced their departure from the royal family in January 2020, sharing a statement on Instagram that they would be “taking a step back” as senior working royals, adding that they would “plan to balance our time between the United Kingdom and North America”.
Their statement also said that by leaving the royal family and relocating to California, it would give them the opportunity to raise their son Archie “with an appreciation for the royal tradition into which he was born, while also providing our family with the space to focus on the next chapter.”
Previously, in the couple’s controversial new Netflix show, Harry admitted they had been planning the shock move away from the UK for “a minimum of two years”.
In 2018, Harry claims they discussed moving to New Zealand or South Africa – and almost did move to South Africa before the story was leaked to the press. But Harry says they were forced to scrap the plan as it became a “public debate”, so they desperately looked to find a new home while temporarily living in Canada in January 2020.
