MEGHAN Markle has headed home from the Invictus Games in Canada and won’t be spending Valentine’s Day with Prince Harry.
The Duchess of Sussex flew back to California on Tuesday, leaving Harry alone at his competition for wounded and sick service personnel and veterans.

The pair had arrived in Vancouver on Friday before spending two days in luxury ski resort Whistler.
Sources closes to the couple insisted the move was pre-planned so that Meghan could be with son Archie, five, and daughter Lilibet, three.
One source said: “This was always planned. Meghan is going home to be with her children.
“Meghan left the games in Dusseldorf early after five days to go home.
“This is Prince Harry’s event and she is there to support him but this was planned.”
But rumours had already been swirling about Harry and Meghan spending time apart.
And with Valentine’s Day coming up on Friday, questions will be asked about the pair not being together on the most romantic day of the year.
Harry already chose to spend his 40th birthday in September hiking with pals and away from Meghan.
And there has been talk of “professional separation” between the two in recent months too.
Harry is not expected to make any public appearances at the Invictus Games today.
It comes after Meghan shrieked as she tried her hand at tubing on Tuesday.
Despite her husband’s encouragement, the Duchess was heard squealing with fear before racing down the slope.
