Which Buckingham Palace events has Meghan Markle attended since 2020?
Executive summary
Meghan Markle attended at least one Buckingham Palace event in March 2020 — a private gathering with students convened by the Association of Commonwealth Universities ahead of the Commonwealth Day Service — described as part of her UK “farewell tour” [1]. Available sources in the provided set do not list further, verified Buckingham Palace appearances by Meghan after she and Prince Harry stepped back as working royals in January 2020 [2] [3].
1. The March 2020 palace visit that is documented
The clearest documented instance in the supplied reporting is an intimate event at Buckingham Palace in March 2020 where Meghan met students from 11 Commonwealth countries under the auspices of the Association of Commonwealth Universities; Town & Country framed it as one of the last engagements on her “farewell tour” of the U.K., noting she arrived at about 1:30 p.m., circulated among students and posed for photos [1].
2. The formal stepping back from royal duties constrains later palace events
Buckingham Palace’s official communications and the Royal Family statement confirm that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex stepped back as working members of the Royal Family in January 2020, a status change that—according to the palace wording in the available sources—ended their roles as senior, working royals, and therefore limited routine participation in official palace events thereafter [2] [3].
3. What other sources here say — appearances before 2020 and absence afterward
Archival and background pieces document Meghan’s multiple earlier ties to Buckingham Palace—balcony appearances and garden parties prior to 2020 are well-covered by outlets in this set—but those are earlier than the time frame you asked about. Newsweek and other pieces note that 2019 was her final Trooping the Colour balcony appearance and that the couple were absent from major palace events such as the Platinum Jubilee in 2022, consistent with their January 2020 change in status [4] [5].
4. Conflicting or marginal claims in tabloid and later pieces
Several tabloid and entertainment outlets in the provided list make broader claims about Meghan’s ongoing use of titles or social activity linked to palace life, but those pieces do not supply a concrete list of Buckingham Palace events she attended after 2020; for example, OK! and the Daily Mail discuss protocol and past balcony placements but do not document specific palace visits post-2020 in the materials given [6] [5]. These claims should be treated cautiously because they are interpretive or editorial rather than event records.
5. What the provided sources do not say
The search results do not include an exhaustive court circular or Royal Family schedule documenting every private or public visit Meghan might have made to Buckingham Palace after March 2020. The available reporting does not enumerate any additional specific Buckingham Palace events attended by Meghan following the March 2020 ACU meeting; therefore, a comprehensive list cannot be assembled from these sources alone (not found in current reporting).
6. How to corroborate and where to look next
To produce a definitive list you will need primary records such as court circular entries, official Royal Family engagement lists, palace press releases, or contemporaneous coverage from established outlets documenting each appearance. The What Meghan Wore event archive and the Royal Family site are useful starting points for cross-checking court circular entries and prior event dates, but those resources in this search set either cover earlier years or are archival summaries rather than a post-2020 engagements ledger [7] [2].
Limitations: this assessment uses only the sources you provided; other reputable reporting or primary palace records may list additional visits that are not present here (not found in current reporting).
