Meghan Markle is planning to attend Wimbledon this year to watch her friend Serena Williams compete, it has been suggested.
It remains to be seen whether the Duchess of Sussex will join her husband when he travels to the UK in July, as Harry's security situation remains unresolved.
The trip was cast into doubt over the weekend when it was revealed that the Executive Committee for the Protection of Royalty and Public Figures (Ravec) had "paused" the independent Risk Management Board (RMB) without explanation.
In response,Harry's spokesman said he "continues to explore every available option to enable the visit to proceed safely and to give his children the opportunity to enjoy the UK".
However, whether Archie and Lilibet will get a reunion with their grandfather remains up in the air.
As does Meghan's possible trip to see Williams, who makes her sensational return to the Wimbledon courts this evening for the first time since 2022.
A source told the Daily Mail Meghan's potential trip "depends how Serena gets on", adding the duchess is "planning to, if her diary allows".
An All England Club source also told the outlet Williams' team had been in touch about Meghan's potential visit, although nothing had been agreed as the dates had not been confirmed.
Meghan and Williams' friendship dates back more than 15 years, with the tennis ace even attending the Sussexes' lavish Windsor wedding in 2018.
The pair first met at Super Bowl XLIV back in 2010, with Williams described to Harpers Bazaar how they "hit it off for no reason" and have been "lifelong friends ever since".
"We could talk for a hundred hours, and it feels like 10 minutes go by, and it’s like we never stop smiling," she said last year.
Harry is said to be considering a brief 24-hour flying visit for Meghan and the children, which would allow them to visit the King.
This would undoubtedly scrap any plans Meghan may have had to visit the All England Lawn Tennis Club.
The King is said to have offered royal accommodation for the family to stay in, but Harry has not responded yet.
It is understood the property would be covered by security; however, nothing else would be.
Instead, Harry and his family would be protected solely with a phone number for a police liaison officer and his own private bodyguards, who are legally banned from carrying firearms and do not have access to police or secret intelligence.
This is the main area of concern for the Sussexes.
Harry's spokesman said: "The issue has never been accommodation. The issue is whether appropriate and proportionate protective security is being provided throughout the entirety of the visit."
