Cupid’s arrow may have struck Meghan Markle and Prince Harry, but that doesn’t mean they might spend Valentine’s Day together.
Kensington Palace took to Twitter share the news that the Duke of Sussex has a busy schedule on V-Day. He holds the title as the Captain General of the Royal Marines, and it seems that duty calls.
Prince Harry is scheduled to visit Exercise Clockwork on Feb. 14. It won’t be all business, though, as he’ll “celebrate the 50th anniversary of the operation in Bardufoss, Norway.”
“Clockwork is the traditional name of the annual winter exercise, based in one of the world’s most demanding environments 200 miles inside the Arctic Circle, which has trained over 16,000 Royal Marines and Royal Navy sailors and airmen since 1969,” the Kensington Palace wrote on Twitter.
As for the Duchess of Sussex? While it’s not confirmed if she has a packed schedule on Valentine’s Day or not, she reportedly isn’t traveling right now since she’s in the later stages of her pregnancy.
Since Markle is expected to give birth in the spring, as the Kensington Palace noted in October, it makes sense that she’s extra cautious about traveling.
Kensington Palace confirmed to E! that the Duchess of Sussex’s next engagements will be at the National Theatre and the Association of Commonwealth Universities.
It’s unclear if the couple will get to spend it together once Harry returns from Norway. Fingers crossed!

Entertainment Tonight points out that last Valentine’s Day, the couple also spent it apart.
Prince Harry had to attend an official event without his bride-to-be at the time (they tied the knot in May). He joined his father, Prince Charles, at the 2018 International Year of the Reef in London.
Although, the royal pair celebrated “Valentine’s Week” last year, so they weren’t away from each other for long.
As E! previously reported, Meghan and Harry spent the first part of the week visiting Scotland, and ended it with a bang. They saw Hamilton! and surprised the cast at London’s West End Theatre.
While there’s not too many details about Meghan and Harry’s schedule during the week of Valentine’s, we have a feeling they have something special planned.
After all, it’s the first time they’re celebrating the season of love as a married couple.
