Since the withdrawal of Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan from the British royal family, the couple has not been to any official royal event.
That has now changed for the Queen's jubilee.
The couple traveled to London with their children – and were greeted with jubilation.
Harry and Meghan were celebrated alongside other members of the Royal Family as they arrived at St Paul's Cathedral for the thanksgiving service in honor of the Queen.
According to the Reuters news agency, however, there were also occasional boos.
Harry wore his military insignia, Meghan appeared in a cream coat and hat.

Because of the withdrawal from the Royals, the relationship between Harry and his brother Prince William and his father Prince Charles is considered to be strained.
Harry and Meghan were not present at the traditional appearance of the royal family on Thursday on the balcony of Buckingham Palace – only "working royals" were admitted to the appearance.
Prince Andrew, the Queen's son, was also absent due to a corona infection, both on the balcony and at the service, which was actually the only event he was supposed to attend.
Because of his involvement in an abuse scandal, Andrew no longer performs any public duties.
For health reasons, Queen Elizabeth II is represented at the service by her son Prince Charles.
Unlike the day before, the extended circle of the Royal Family is also invited – as are Prime Minister Boris Johnson, several members of his government and many other politicians.
