Prince Harry and Meghan Markle make shock UK return with Archie and Lilibet six years after ‘Megxit’

Six years after dramatically walking away from royal life and swapping Britain for California, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are preparing for a major homecoming. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are reportedly moving back to the UK with Prince Archie, 7, and Princess Lilibet, 5, for an extended period from this month, marking arguably the biggest change to their family life since “Megxit” in 2020. The children are expected to begin school in Britain in September, while Prince Harry and Meghan establish a private, non-royal home base in the country. It is a remarkable full-circle moment for a couple whose departure from Britain triggered years of royal turmoil — and could ultimately give Prince Harry and Meghan a version of the “half in, half out” existence they originally wanted. The Sussexes will not abandon their life across the Atlantic.
