For a pair that Meghan once described as 'always moving together like salt and pepper shakers', it's quite the departure that Harry has gone travelling solo.
The straightforward answer is that Harry spent time in New York promoting his own charitable interests, such as The Diana Award and The Halo Trust, before travelling to the UK, and on to southern Africa for the same reasons.
He was the guest speaker at the annual WellChild Awards (which he tries to visit every year) in London, then went to Lesotho, where he and Prince Seeiso founded Sentebale, and on to South Africa.
In Johannesburg, Harry met philanthropists and big businesses in the name of climate change and saving the planet - all areas that the Duke of Sussex has been passionate about all his life.
But it was intriguing that Meghan stayed at home with Archie, five, and Lili, three.
Possibly she thought Harry's rather bizarre appearance on US comedy show The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon where the two men ran through a haunted house - was somewhat beneath her.
