Prince Harry and his wife, Meghan, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, are reportedly returning to Britain this month, six years after they quit royal duties and relocated to the U.S.<\/p>\n
The couple intend to relocate from the U.S. to a private non-royal residence outside London, according to the BBC.<\/p>\n
Harry and Meghan plan to maintain their home in Montecito, Calif., and their vacation property in Portugal when they return to the United Kingdom for an extended stay beginning this fall, The Associated Press reports.<\/p>\n
The outlet also reports that the couple\u2019s children, seven-year-old Prince Archie and five-year-old and Princess Lilibet have been enrolled to start at a British school in September.<\/p>\n
King Charles III was told of the move on Sunday and there are no current plans for Harry or Meghan to resume their roles as working royals, the BBC reports.<\/p>\n
Harry and Meghan gave up their royal duties and moved to California more than six years ago and secured lucrative contracts with Netflix and Spotify with their media company, Archewell Productions.<\/p>\n
Although relations with the rest of the Royal Family have soured since then, Harry has recently expressed an interest in reconciliation so he could spend more time with his father, King Charles, who is being treated for an undisclosed form of cancer.<\/p>\n
Harry and Meghan visited the U.K. last month, where they met with King Charles and Queen Camilla at Highgrove House, a country estate west of London, Buckingham Palace confirmed.<\/p>\n
The Duke of Sussex arrived in his homeland for a number of charity events.<\/p>\n
Harry\u2019s visit also coincided with him losing his final lawsuit in his quest to tame the British tabloids. A judge ruled that he failed to prove his privacy invasion claims against the publisher of the Daily Mail.<\/p>\n
Harry has made public comments about hoping to reconcile with his family, telling the BBC last year, \u201cI would love reconciliation with my family. There\u2019s no point in continuing to fight anymore.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThere have been so many disagreements between myself and some of my family,\u201d he said, adding that he has now \u201cforgiven\u201d them.<\/p>\n
\u201cLife is precious. I don\u2019t know how much longer my father has,\u201d he said, referencing King Charles and his 2024 cancer diagnosis. \u201cHe won\u2019t speak to me because of this security stuff, but it would be nice to reconcile.\u201d<\/p>\n
Harry has placed the blame on the palace for stripping him of his police protection detail on visits to the U.K., and said that was at the \u201cheart\u201d of the family dispute.<\/p>\n
Harry told the BBC that his security issues \u201ccould be resolved\u201d through his 77-year-old father.<\/p>\n
