‘Sick’ Meghan Markle fails to show up alongside Prince Harry at Kevin Costner charity event as royal takes to stage to honour first responders
The Duke of Sussex honoured a Santa Barbara helicopter pilot at the One805Live! concert, which is held at Costner’s oceanside estate in California.
Several A-listers, such as Jeff Bridges, Rob Lowe and Pink, were in attendance to celebrate the heroism of first responders.
Both Harry and Meghan attended the same event last year, and many were said to be hoping Meghan would attend again.
However, a source confirmed ‘the word is that she is sick and could not make it’, the Mirror report.
Harry is now expected to travel to New York over the weekend to attend other events, including the Diana Awards and an event held by the Halo Trust, which Diana was involved in.
Harry, dressed in a navy blue suit and light blue shirt, addressed the crowd at the One805 concert to present an award onstage to local helicopter pilot Loren Courtney near the start of the evening after he arrived at 7pm.
