Meghan was looking for reassurance from Kate after the Queen's death - but the tension was still too much
Following the death of Queen Elizabeth II, the Royal Family were keen to put on a show of unity.
But their choice of display has been described by Kate as 'one of the hardest things' she has ever had to do - and Meghan hasn't been seen on UK soil since.
During the national mourning period, Prince Harry and Prince William observed the tributes and spoke to members of the public outside Windsor Castle - just as they had outside of Buckingham Palace when their mother died.
But this time the brothers were fully grown men and married too, each walking beside their spouse. More importantly, they were now estranged as the Sussexes had dramatically left the Firm two years earlier in January 2020.
The September 2022 walkabout marked two-and-a-half years since the couples had last been seen together in public, at the Commonwealth Day Service just before the Covid pandemic.
The royals, once dubbed the 'fab four', were greeted by applause as they walked along the gates of Windsor Castle together. But despite what the pictures would have you believe, the couples only came together briefly at the start and end of the engagement.
Throughout the rest of the walkabout, which lasted around 30 minutes, the Waleses and the Sussexes appeared to stick in their pairs.
