  • Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are reportedly planning to move back to Britain with their children this month.
  • The couple stepped down from royal duties six years ago and have been living in the U.S.
  • Their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, are expected to start school in Britain in September.

Prince Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle, are reportedly preparing to relocate from the United States back to Britain with their two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet. This potential move comes six years after the couple stepped down from their senior royal roles.

Media outlets, including People magazine and The Telegraph, reported that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex intend to reside in Britain for an extended period. Their children, aged seven and five respectively, are slated to begin their schooling in the UK this September.

Spokespeople for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have declined to comment on the reports. However, the news follows a recent visit where King Charles III was reunited with his grandchildren at his country home in July. This meeting was seen by some as a sign of thawing relations between the King and his son, Prince Harry.

Sources familiar with the situation indicated that the King was informed of the decision on a Sunday, though the family's potential move was not discussed during Harry and Meghan's earlier summer visit to Britain. Despite the reported relocation, Harry and Meghan's status as non-working royals is expected to remain unchanged, and they will continue as private individuals while residing in Britain.
