We’ve known for a while now Prince Harry and Meghan Markle aren’t spending Valentine’s Day together this year. Unfortunately, royal duty calls for the Duke of Sussex: He’s currently in Bardufoss, Norway, visiting the Exercise Clockwork, an “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.” So, in other words, he’s seriously watching people work out in the freezing cold instead of hanging out with Meghan. So sad!

But the people at Exercise Clockwork just brought her a little bit closer to him. In a very sweet move, they covered one of the makeshift shelters Prince Harry stopped by with photos of him and Meghan on their wedding day. Prince Harry’s smile when he saw these photos is absolutely priceless:

“You weirdos,” Prince Harry joked when he saw the photos, according to E! Online. “It’s very kind of you to invite me into your private shrine or whatever you want to call it.”

This means Markle is spending Valentine’s Day on her own too—but if this recently unearthed blog post from her old website The Tig is any indication, she’s not sweating it. Back in 2015 Markle wrote about how practicing self-love on Valentine’s Day is the most important thing.

“This Valentine’s Day I will be with friends, running amok through the streets of New York, likely imbibing some cocktail that’s oddly pink, and jumping over icy mounds in my new shoes through the salted snowy streets of the West Village,” she wrote, according to People. “But those shoes, by the way, were my gift to myself. Because I’ve worked hard, because I’m not going to wait for someone to buy me the things I covet (nor do I want to), and because I want to treat myself as well as I treat those dearest to me. Because I am my own funny Valentine.”
