Prince Harry, 40, will be undoubtedly regretful after missing Remembrance Sunday, according to a royal commentator.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex did not join the rest of the Royal Family for the annual Festival of Remembrance or Remembrance Sunday at the Cenotaph.
Royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams claims that Prince Harry’s proud military background will lead him to “undoubtedly be regretful” for not joining his family in remembering British veterans.
Fitzwilliams said: “For Harry, there will undoubtedly be mixed feelings.

He added: “He is still part of the British military family and its major act of homage to the fallen in Whitehall, where his father, the King, leads the nation’s homage to the fallen.
“On an occasion like Remembrance Sunday, his thoughts, from California, will undoubtedly be regretful.”
However, the royal expert did say that although he missed the event, he was “undoubtedly present in spirit.”
Fitzwilliams continued: “Each year on Remembrance Sunday he and Meghan commemorate it by doing something which they regard as appropriate for the occasion.”
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex visited the Navy SEALS Foundation facility in California last year to mark the occasion.

Prince Harry shared a new photograph from his Montecito home as he reflected on grief and loss ahead of this year’s Remembrance Day.
The Duke of Sussex, who serves as global ambassador for military bereavement charity Scotty’s Little Soldiers, penned an emotional letter to the organisation’s members and surprised the children with bags of sweets.
Fitzwilliams said: “This year’s letter was especially personal as he referenced his mother’s death, which so traumatised him.”

Prince Harry wrote in the letter: “I understand, perhaps more than most, the weight of losing a parent at a young age.”
“It can be overwhelming and isolating.
“Yet, in the midst of that heartache, we find strength in the love and memories left behind, and I have seen how communities like yours can offer deep comfort and healing.”
Fitzwilliams said: “Prince Harry has always said that the decade he spent in the military was the making of him. His two tours of Afghanistan were undoubtedly a success and his popularity at that time was huge in Britain.”
