The Duchess of Sussex, Meghan Markle, has sent royal watchers into a frenzy with a cryptic social media post hinting at a significant announcement scheduled for later today.
Cryptic Instagram Clue Fuels Speculation
On the Instagram account for her lifestyle brand, As Ever, Meghan shared a story featuring a notebook with a bookmark. The image was captioned "Save the Date" and specified 9am Pacific Time (5pm GMT) on Tuesday, 13th January 2026. Given the source of the post, industry observers strongly suspect the announcement is linked to a new product launch or collection drop from her commercial venture.
Potential UK Visit Hinges on Security Decision
This brand activity coincides with mounting speculation about a potential return to the United Kingdom for the Sussexes. Reports suggest Meghan could join Prince Harry at an event this July, marking one year until the 2027 Invictus Games in Birmingham.
However, a firm condition has been attached to any such visit. It is understood that Meghan will only travel if Prince Harry's automatic police protection in the UK is restored. A decision from the Home Office, following a fresh review, is said to be imminent.
An Invictus Olive Branch for the King?
In a separate but related development, it has been claimed that Prince Harry is planning to extend an invitation to his father, King Charles III, for the 2027 Invictus Games. Sources indicate Harry may even ask the monarch to officially open the event, potentially signalling a thaw in their reportedly strained relationship.
The couple also recently offered a glimpse into their family life during a virtual appearance. At an Oprah Winfrey book launch event hosted by Gayle King, they discussed parenting their two children, six-year-old Archie and four-year-old Lilibet. The discussion centred on a book about the dangers of digital overconsumption, with Harry praising the research as "incredibly valuable".
