It has been claimed that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have decided to return to England with their children. It is reported that Harry's desire to be closer to his family and to have their children educated in England were influential in the family's decision to move.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, who have recently been in the spotlight with their remarkable decisions, are now being talked about with their plans to return to England. The couple is claimed to be preparing to leave their life in the US and settle back in England with their children.
Although the idea of spending more time in England has been on the agenda for a while, it has been learned that the final decision to return was made recently. The visit to England in July also became an important turning point in this process.
Harry, Meghan, and their children Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet came together with King Charles III at Highgrove during the visit. The family also spent time with the family of Harry's mother, Princess Diana. Archie and Lilibet meeting their aunts, uncles, and cousins was also one of the notable moments of the visit.
The European trip, which also included time spent at their home in Portugal, was considered a positive period for the family. Following this visit, the idea of returning to England became clearer.
CHILDREN WILL STUDY IN ENGLAND
It is stated that Harry and Meghan's decision to move is not linked to any problems they have experienced in the US. The couple is reported to want to establish a life closer to Harry's family in Europe and to educate Archie and Lilibet in England.
It is claimed that school selections have been made for the two children, and since the new school term in England does not start until the second week of September, the family is expected to return to the country in the coming days.
ENGLISH COUNTRYSIDE INSTEAD OF LONDON
Harry and Meghan's new address has not been announced yet. However, it is being discussed that the couple will not prefer London.
They are expected to establish a life in the English countryside instead of their multi-million dollar mansion in California. The Cotswolds and the area around Northampton are mentioned as possible regions, and it is also noteworthy that these areas are close to the Spencer family's Althorp estate.
KING CHARLES WAS NOT AWARE OF THE DECISION
It has been noted that the decision for Harry and Meghan to return was not made by King Charles III, and the King was informed of this development later.
Charles was informed on Sunday, August 16, that the couple would move to England. It is reported that the King is pleased with the possibility of spending more time with his son and grandchildren.
However, it is particularly emphasized that this move does not mean that the issues between Harry and his brother, Prince William of Wales, have ended. It is stated that the relationship between the two brothers remains tense and that there has been no concrete progress towards reconciliation.
It is noted that William cannot forgive Harry for bringing the family disputes to the public in his memoir "Spare" and in his interview with Oprah Winfrey. Therefore, Prince William is not expected to fully welcome Harry and Meghan's return.
NO RETURN TO ROYAL DUTIES
Harry and Meghan's return to England does not mean they will resume their royal duties.
The couple will continue their lives as non-working members of the royal family. There is also no plan for the royal family to make a special arrangement for the Duke and Duchess described as "a bit in, a bit out."
It is stated that the work they will carry out in England will not be connected to official royal duties.
WHAT WILL THE SECURITY ARRANGEMENT BE?
One of the biggest question marks regarding Harry and Meghan's return to England is security.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex used a private security team in the US. There is currently no clear information on whether this team will come to England.
It is also uncertain whether official police protection will be provided in England. It is unknown how Harry's long-standing dispute with the Home Office over his request for official protection during his stays in England will conclude.
After losing his legal battle over his security in England last year, Harry said in a statement to the BBC, "At this stage, I cannot see a realm where I will bring my wife and children back to England."
Now, Harry and Meghan's plan to return to England with their children opens a new chapter in the couple's life while also bringing the balances within the royal family back to the agenda.
