Update for everyone curious: Meghan Markle won't be traveling to England with Prince Harry for the unveiling of Princess Diana's statue due to the fact that she literally just had a baby! A source confirmed the news to Entertainment Tonight, saying: "Meghan has just had a baby and has no plans to travel to London for the memorial event planned for the statue unveiling in the Sunken Garden at Kensington Palace." And Daily Telegraph correspondent Victoria Ward also said as much, tweeting: "The Duchess of Sussex will not fly to the UK to join Harry for the unveiling of a statue of his late mother, sources confirm, after a US website claimed she would join him. She’s just had a baby, they point out."

Prince William and Prince Harry originally commissioned the statue of Princess Diana back in 2017, saying in a joint statement:
“It has been 20 years since our mother’s death and the time is right to recognize her positive impact in the UK and around the world with a permanent statue. Our mother touched so many lives. We hope the statue will help all those who visit Kensington Palace to reflect on her life and her legacy.”
The statue will be unveiled on July 1, on what would have been Princess Diana’s 60th birthday, in the Sunken Garden of Kensington Palace—one of Diana's favorite spots.
According to a source who spoke to The Sun, William and Harry have “insisted” on giving separate speeches at the unveiling, prompting “concern” that their body language will make it seem like they aren't putting on a "united front." But! Apparently everyone's been friendly in the group chat lately, so hopefully the vibe will be free of any perceived tension!
