Prince Harry reportedly had to beg the Royal Family to delay the announcement of Queen Elizabeth II's passing, as he was en route to Balmoral in a storm. Despite his pleas, the Palace eventually decided to inform the world without him.
Prince Harry once had to 'plead' with the Royal Family to delay announcing significant news. The world was officially informed of Queen Elizabeth II's passing at 6:30pm on September 8 2022, just before Prince Harry could reach Aberdeen and head to Balmoral. Buckingham Palace had intended to issue a statement earlier, but Harry "begged" them to hold off as he wanted to be present, according to Omid Scobie, the author of Endgame.
The Palace agreed to wait, but eventually decided to announce the news without him. A spokesperson for the King stated: "The public was only informed after every family member had been informed." On the day of The Queen's death, members of the Royal Family rushed to Aberdeenshire to be by her side at Balmoral. The Duke of Sussex was scheduled to attend a charity award ceremony in London on September 8 but had to cancel it to rush to his grandmother's bedside.
