Meghan Markle has reportedly cancelled a series of upcoming TV interviews in New York after the death of Queen Elizabeth II.
Sources have claimed that Meghan, 41, has cancelled a solo appearance on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon on September 20, with the Queen’s funeral expected to take place on September 19.
Meghan had also been scheduled to visit the UN General Assembly in Manhattan with her husband Harry, 37, but that appearance is also reportedly cancelled.
Archetypes, Meghan’s new podcast, is also reportedly set to delay the release of the next episode in light of the death of her husband’s grandmother.
A source told Page Six: ‘Meghan was due on Fallon. I don’t even know what she was going to talk about, but that’s obviously cancelled now.’
The couple usually live in California in the US, but had been in the UK for some planned appearances, including at a charity event, when the Queen died.
