Prince Harry and Meghan Markle took their final bow as senior royals today as they attended the Commonwealth Day service as their last royal engagement. During the Westminster Abbey service,


all eyes were on the Duke and Duchess of Sussex as they interacted with other royals and guests. Eagle-eyed viewers balked when they caught the prince greeting popular R&B singer Craig

rule. When he entered the Abbey, Boris Johnson made to shake officials hands, momentarily forgetting the Coronavirus advice. However, at the last minute, he jerked it back, seemingly


remembering the advice of health officials. Mr Johnson took his faux pax in stride and made a joke of it. Both his fiancée Carrie Symonds and the Abbey officials appeared to laugh.
