Harry and Meghan made a flying visit to Windsor to meet Her Majesty and Prince Charles on Thursday
According to The Mirror, sources said meeting was 'very cordial' and 'incredibly warm and good natured'
During the secret meeting, the couple are understood to have told The Queen they will visit again soon so that she can spend time with their children - and her great-grandchildren - Archie and Lilibet
The Queen has never met 11-month-old Lilibet, who was born after the couple moved to California

Meghan last saw the Queen at an awkward Commonwealth Day service on March 8, 2020
but has claimed since to regularly speak to her on the phone and over video calls
Prince Harry used secret visit to Windsor to 'slowly start rebuilding some bridges' with Charles, royal biographer claims
Prince Harry's secret visit to Windsor was a way of 'slowly starting to rebuild some bridges' with his father, a royal biographer claims.
The Duke of Sussex and wife Meghan flew in to the UK together on Wednesday for the first time in two years.
As well as meeting the Queen at her official residence, it is believed the couple also made arrangements to see Prince Charles, and his wife, the Duchess of Cornwall.
Harry was heavily criticised for not attending last month's memorial service for his late grandfather, the Duke of Edinburgh, who died a year ago last Saturday. But at the time his spokesman said he hoped to see his grandmother 'soon'.
Harry and his father have spoken only rarely over the last two years and he heavily criticised Charles in last year's tell-all Oprah interview for failing to support him and allegedly cutting him off financially - claims roundly disputed by supporters of the future king who say he has been left desolate by his younger son's rejection.
He is also said to be deeply concerned about Harry's forthcoming memoirs due to be published later this year which he fears will be further used to settle scores.
Royal biographer Phil Dampier said the meeting was likely an opportunity to try and begin mending some of the damage the relationship has suffered in recent years.
Harry and Meghan 'told the Queen she will hug Archie and Lilibet 'in the near future'' in 'very cordial' secret meeting... while William and Kate ski in the Alps
The Queen is yet to meet her great-granddaughter, 11-month-old Lilibet, who was named after Her Majesty's childhood nickname. Archie - seventh in line to the British throne - is now two years old, and reports have previously hinted at the Queen's sadness at not having the chance to spend more time with him
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have promised the Queen that she will get to hug her great-grandchildren Archie and Lilibet 'in the near future' during a 'very cordial' secret meeting on Thursday, according to reports.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex made a flying visit to Windsor to meet Her Majesty and Prince Charles for a peace offering, before travelling to The Hague today for the start of the Invictus Games in The Netherlands. The couple flew to London from their home in California, where their two children are believed to currently be.
According to The Mirror, senior royal sources described the meeting as 'very cordial' and 'incredibly warm and good natured'.
Harry and Meghan reportedly opened the door to return from the US for the Queen's Platinum Jubilee celebrations, and told her of their plans to visit again so she can spend time with the children.
News of Harry and Meghan's promise came after it emerged earlier that the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are currently away holidaying in the French Alps with their children - just as the surprise visit occurred

Duke and duchess have been blasted by critics for 'cashing in' by giving Netflix documentary special access
Comes after talks this week between the Queen and Charles marked Meghan's first visit to UK since Megxit
Source told MailOnline Harry and Meghan decided to go to opening Invictus Games event in the last 48 hours
It comes after critics accused the couple of 'cashing in' on the Games by allowing Netflix, with whom they have signed a $100million deal, into private meetings.
Some fear they are also 'exploitingthe Queen', saying their trip this week for top-secret 'clear the air talks' with the monarch andPrince Charles was to please their American producers.
A documentary about the Games – entitled Heart of Invictus – will be the first documentary series to be co-produced by Netflix with the Duke and Duchess’s own company, Archewell Productions.

1. THE £12,000 CARTIER EARRINGS SHE WORE FOR HER WEDDING AND ARCHIE'S CHRISTENING
by designer Sophie Lis, which she first wore on a visit to the National Theatre in 2020
The 'Love pendant', made by designer Sophie Lis, bears a reference to a French poem which translates to 'Every day I love you more, more than yesterday less than tomorrow.'
3. HER WELSH GOLD WEDDING BAND
The Duchess of Sussex's gold wedding band, worn with her diamond engagement ring, was custom made from Welsh gold gifted by the Queen.
Royal brides are traditionally given wedding rings made from gold nuggets from Clogau St David's mine at Bontddu in North Wales.
The piece was made by Cleave and Company, the official Royal jewellers based at Buckingham Palace.
4.THE £271,000 ENGAGEMENT RING
her wedding ring, Meghan sported her £271,000 ($350,000) engagement ring, which was designed by Prince Harry using one stone from Botswana, where the pair had been on holiday, and two smaller stones from Diana's collection.
Harry proposed to Meghan in November 2017 with the glittering ring comprising a solid yellow gold band. However in 2019, images revealed that the design had been changed in order to incorporate a thinner band that was set with several pave diamonds all around it.
Catbird's 'Kitten Mitten' design is described by the brand as 'easy-breezy cool and super foxy', and is also intended to 'gracefully accentuate the wrist'.
The chain is wrapped in a loop around the Duchess of Sussex's ring finger, suggesting it might have ties to Prince Harry.
It then forms a second loop around her wrist, next to the Cartier watch once owned by Princess Diana.
