Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan left many reeling in the wake of their shock decision to step back as senior members of the royal family.

On paper, it seemed as though the pair were choosing to step back from the limelight and away from the public eye (a feat that left many of us in despair – no more Meghan Markle fashion fixes?!).

But it seems the Sussexes have plenty of work to be getting on with that’ll keep them at the forefront of our attention – no matter what their royal status is.

Not to worry, we’ve got plenty more Harry and Meghan appearances to look forward to!

Over the weekend, the final logistics around the pair’s transition into a financially independent life, while stepping back as senior royal family members was confirmed.

On the Sussex Royal website, the couple issued a lengthy statement pertaining to their “spring transition”, which will see them step back formally as of March 31.

But between now and then, we’ve got an entire month – and with that, brings several enticing events that we’ll have the opportunity to see both Meghan and Harry attend.

Surprisingly, said royal engagements set out for them over the next few weeks are also rather poignant in their own right, and they certainly suggest what could be in store when the pair set out on their new path from April 1.

Harry and Meghan are forging an independent path ahead, but there’s a couple of loose ends to tie up before they do so.

February 28: Harry to attend Invictus Games Choir recording session

The Duke of Sussex formally kick-started the Invictus Games in his role as a royal, however, it’s clear the event goes a lot deeper than that for the 35-year-old.

Harry will return to the UK from his current base in Canada to attend a recording session ahead of the 2020 Invictus Games (which will be held in the Netherlands in May).

The session will include an entire choir and none other than famed singer Jon Bon Jovi.

Although Harry’s attendance would likely have been arranged no matter his royal status, it all but confirms that the Prince will continue his work with the games beyond his life as a senior royal family member.
