Harry and Meghan plan return to live in UK
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are planning a return to the UK, enrolling their children in local schools while maintaining their status as private individuals. The move has sparked speculation regarding the reaction of the Prince of Wales and the future of royal family relations.
Why it matters
The return of the Sussexes to the UK is a major cultural event with potential implications for the stability of the British monarchy.
Britain's Prince Harry and Meghan plan to move back to Britain more than six years after they relocated to California, according to media reports in the UK.
The couple will return to the UK later this month - making their home in a non-royal residence outside of London - and have already enrolled Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet in British schools.
It is understood there will be no change to Harry and Meghan's role and status as private individuals and non-working members of the royal family.
Britain's King Charles, who is still living with cancer, was first made aware of the move on Sunday and is understood to welcome the opportunity to see more of the family both in a private and personal capacity.
However, their status will remain the same, with the couple not being offered a "half-in-half-out" option when it comes to their roles.
