The royal was seen leaving her hotel, making her way to the Balenciaga runway show. It was her first trip to Europe since the 2023 Invictus Games, which took place in Düsseldorf, Germany.

This is the first time the Duchess has appeared at Paris Fashion Week.

The visit to Europe comes just one month after Prince Harry had a meeting with King Charles in London, as the pair attempt to reconcile their royal rift.

The Duke of Sussex met with King Charles at a private tea during a four-day whirlwind visit on September 10, at Clarence House.

The meeting was supposed to signal a reconciliation.

However, multiple outlets have quoted royal insiders as saying the meeting was so formal he felt like an “official visitor” akin to dignitaries and visitors at royal residences, rather than a family member.

Prince Harry gave the king a framed photograph of himself, Markle and their two children, Archie, and Lilibet, whom the King hasn’t seen since the Platinum Jubilee in June 2022.

Harry claims it is not safe to fly the children back to the UK.

The King gave Harry a gift, for his 41st birthday present, but the apparent goodwill ended there.

During the meeting, King Charles said there are no plans for the pair to be seen together or for Harry to return to a hybrid royal role. where he is “half-in, half-out” from his life in the US.

In January 2020, King Charles made a Sandringham Agreement, which rejected this concept. However, the King is still open for a private meeting with Harry when he is next in London.

The pair had not seen each other since February 2024. Harry made a transatlantic dash after the king’s cancer diagnosis, after being somewhat estranged.

Harry did not spend time with his brother, Prince William, Prince of Wales or his wife, the Princess of Wales, whom he previously had a close relationship with prior to him leaving royal life.

Prince Harry met with corporate sponsors and government ministers at an Invictus reception at The Gherkin building.

Harry publicly expressed hopes of a reconciliation with his family in May.

After stepping down as a senior working royal in 2020, Prince Harry no longer benefits from blue-light police escorts which would have whisked him through any travel chaos.

The face-to-face encounter in February 2024 appeared to last for just over 30 minutes.
