BREAKING NEWS: Mikhail Saakashvili, ex-President of Georgia hospitalised in serious condition

The Queen has banned Meghan Markle, Prince Harry and Prince Andrew from the Buckingham Palace balcony at her Platinum Jubilee celebrations, it was revealed today.

The trio were expected to join Her Majesty for the traditional Trooping the Colour RAF flypast – but “after careful consideration” they will now be publicly excluded, The Sun reported on Friday, May 6.

A Palace spokesperson said: “After careful consideration, the Queen has decided this year’s traditional Trooping the Colour balcony appearance on Thursday, June 2, will be limited to Her Majesty and those members of the royal family who are currently undertaking official public duties on behalf of the Queen.”

Only working members of the Royal Family will wave to crowds on The Mall as the queen celebrates 70 years on the throne.

The 96-year-old monarch will stand alongside Charles and Camilla, William and Kate, and their children George, Charlotte and Louis.

Also on the balcony will be Anne and her husband Sir Timothy Laurence, Edward and Sophie, and their children Lady Louise Windsor and James Viscount Severn.
