The Queen has requested Harry and Meghan attend the annual Commonwealth Service with the rest of the royals next month.

Government representatives of the 53 member nations will gather at Westminster Abbey for the one-hour event on the afternoon of March 

For the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, it will be wrapped into a wider whistle stop schedule which will mark their final duties on the Family frontline.

At last year's event, Meghan was heavily pregnant with now nine-month Archie, who will fly with his parents from Canada for their engagements, the Sunday Times reports.

Next month's Commonwealth Day ceremony will likely see the Duke and Duchess reunite with William and Kate. When they were pictured smiling together at the 2019 event, the group were known as the Fab Four - a nickname which has since evaporated

Her Majesty's invitation will see the couple press pause on their new pared-back lifestyle which has allowed them to profit their royal fame.

On Thursday night they were keynote speakers at a star-studded JP Morgan conference which wealth experts believe could have netted them up to $1million.

Friends have told the newspaper the Queen is 'remarkably relaxed' and 'unfazed' by the couple's money-making ventures.
Ronn Torossian, CEO of New York-based firm 5W Public Relations, said he expects the couple to have made between $500,000 and $1million (£387,000 and £775,000) from the appearance. 

He told Dailymail.com: 'One would imagine they flew privately from Canada to Miami, had a hotel suite, and hair and makeup artist, which could cost $100,000 (£77,000) to $250,000 (£193,000) in expenses.

''Harry and Meghan will be the highest-paid speakers that exist on the corporate market.'
