Meghan MarkleandPrince Harryare approaching one year of living in the U.S. — but there are some big events coming up this year that could mean a return trip to the U.K.
The couple was last in the U.K. for their final round of royal engagements, including attending the Commonwealth Day service in London in March 2020 before stepping down as senior members of the royal family. They relocated to California with their 1-year-old son Archie the same month, just as travel restrictions began to increase due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Trooping the Colour — the public celebration ofQueen Elizabeth’s birthday, where members of the royal family gather on the iconic Buckingham Palace balcony — was majorly scaled down last summer due to the pandemic. Should the event be allowed to take place, it’s likely thatPrince Harry, 36, and Meghan, 39, will participate in the festivities for the monarch’s 95th birthday. (If Archie joins his parents across the pond, he may even make his balcony debut.)
Insiders recently told PEOPLE thatPrince Harrywill take part in the 100th birthday celebrations of his grandfather,Prince Philip, in June. Harry is also expected to team up with brotherPrince Williamin July for the long-awaited unveiling of a Kensington Palace statue of their late mother, Princess Diana, to commemorate what would have been her 60th birthday.
