The Duke and Duchess of Sussex claimed King Charles did not contact the couple about his upcoming birthday party

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have made their first public appearance since their spat with King Charles over his 75th birthday party.

After initial reports claimed the Duke and Duchess of Sussex had snubbed the monarch's birthday invitation, a spokesperson for the couple confirmed they had not been contacted by the Palace.


For the first time since the public back and forth, Harry and Meghan have made an appearance in the United States.

The couple unveiled a revolutionary warrior fitness programme facility for veterans living in San Diego.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex joined the Navy SEAL Foundation to inaugurate the Warrior Fitness Program West Coast Facility.

It was officially opened during a ribbon-cutting ceremony, attended by Harry and Meghan, Navy SEAL Foundation leaders, veterans, and their families, along with 250 Naval Special Warfare personnel.

The facility boasts an 11,169-square-foot gym.

The programme addresses the needs of those on the battlefield, especially those who have had to transition to civilian life or retired from service.
