Their final scheduled appearance before relocating with their young son Archie to North America for the next chapter of their lives, there will, undoubtedly, be a strong show of family unity.

But there will also be regret at how Harry and Meghan have handled the saga – they knew what was expected of them when they married at Windsor Castle two years ago before £2.4m of public money was spent renovating Frogmore Cottage for their use.
