Meghan Markle is back in California after a visit to the 2025 Invictus Games in Canada, PEOPLE reported. She returned early to be with her two children, Prince Archie, aged 5, and Princess Lilibet, aged 3.

Prince Harry remains in Canada, as the Invictus Games continue through February 16. He founded this adaptive sporting competition in 2014 for sick, injured, and wounded service personnel along with veterans. He serves as patron of the Invictus Games Foundation, working to support participants and promote mental health awareness.

Meghan attended the event and embraced her family-first priorities, albeit having individual projects ongoing. One such project is her Netflix show, "With Love, Meghan." Observers commented on their strong partnership and unity during this significant occasion.

An eyewitness noted, "There is speculation about their marriage, but their appearance together reflects a united front." Their presence at the event supports their commitment to issues they care about.

Meghan returned to California with gifts for Archie and Lilibet — custom jerseys from Team Nigeria. Derrick Cobbinah, the team manager, shared, "They said they would be excited to have them. She was very, very excited."

Prince Harry also posed with jerseys designed for his children at the games, showing his engagement with his family even amid his busy schedule.

The Duke and Duchess officially kicked off the Invictus Games on February 7. During the welcome reception, Meghan shared a personal anecdote about their morning routines as a family. She explained how Prince Harry balances his responsibilities as a father while preparing for the Games.

"With families, there’s a big rush in the morning... my husband is in all of that with us," Meghan said. "Archie will ask, 'Papa, why are you on your phone?' and he’ll reply, 'Because it’s Invictus.'"

Meghan emphasized Harry's dedication, sharing a heartfelt message that expressed gratitude for their supporters. She introduced Harry, saying that he was the father cheering for the family from California.

During the Invictus Games, Harry discussed how he introduced Archie to the event. He previously shared a video of wheelchair basketball, emphasizing how children can understand immense topics through their unfiltered perspective.

Discussions about the service personnel led to emotional connections, such as memories of Princess Diana's advocacy for landmines. "It gave me a chance to talk about my mum. He wanted to see photographs of Grandma Diana," Harry reflected on the experience.

Although Harry and Meghan will spend Valentine's Day apart, they celebrated early with a double date featuring singer Michael Bublé and his wife, Luisana Lopilato. At an Italian restaurant, Meghan wore a pair of diamond earrings Harry gave her the previous year, symbolizing their bond and ongoing affection.

Their commitment to family and advocacy is a vital element in their lives. Meghan's early return shows that no matter the events occurring around them, family always takes precedence.

Earlier, SSP wrote that Travis Scott named his dream collaborations.
