A complete list of Harry and Meghan's final engagements as royals
It's done – Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's final royal engagements have been confirmed ahead of their official exit from the royal family.
Since announcing their decision to leave the monarchy in January there has been ample speculation about how the couple would make their official exit from 'the firm'.

Both the duke and duchess have been in Canada for the past weeks, prompting talk that they may not return to the UK in a royal capacity at all, but Buckingham Palace have now disproven those rumours.
On Wednesday the palace announced that Harry and Meghan will wrap up their royal duties officially on 31 March, but plan to attend several key engagements over the next month.

Set to "transition" into their new lives fully on 1 April, here's a full list of the Sussexes final engagements as royals.

He will then attend the opening of the Silverstone Experience, a British motor racing museum, alongside Formula One racer Lewis Hamilton.
Harry is then expected to travel between North America and the UK several times throughout 2020 as he continues to work with his private patronages.
As Patron of the London Marathon, the Duke of Sussex is expected to attend the event on 26 April despite it being after his and Meghan's official 'transition' date.

The duchess is eager as ever to support women's causes and will be attending an engagement in honour of International Women's Day on 8 March, though details of the event are yet to be confirmed.

Joint engagements
Harry and Meghan will attend a series of events together and are set to appear at the Endeavour Fund Awards, Mountbatten Music Festival at the Royal Albert Hall, and the Commonwealth Day Service.
The couple may also return to the UK for the launch of their charitable foundation later this year, though it won't be the 'Sussex Royal Foundation' they were expecting, as the duke and duchess have had to drop the brand name as part of their exit deal.

The foundation is expected to undergo extensive rebranding in the months before its launch, which Harry and Meghan will likely attend.
