Why Prince Harry and Meghan Markle Changed Their Mind About Living in the U.K.: Royal Expert

The couple will keep homes in California and Portugal while Archie and Lilibet begin school in Britain next month, sources said.

  • Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are relocating their children, Prince Archie, 7, and Princess Lilibet, 5, to the United Kingdom for an extended period, with both scheduled to begin school there in September.
  • The move follows six years in California after the couple stepped down as senior working royals; former royal butler Grant Harrold suggests Harry was a "daddy's boy" in youth and aims to rebuild his relationship with King Charles III.
  • Harry and Meghan will retain homes in Montecito, California, and Portugal while occupying non-royal property in Britain; they initially signed a $100 million multiyear Netflix deal in 2020 for TV shows and movies.
  • Former royal butler Harrold warned Prince William may be "furious" regarding the return following their public fallout, though he believes Princess Kate could act as peacemaker while cautioning Meghan may struggle with U.K. scrutiny.
  • Harrold stated "time is a healer" and relationships can be repaired, as Harry reportedly expressed "I need to be with my dad in this part of his life" while prioritizing reconciliation with the King.
