Prince Harry and Meghan have arrived back in the UK, BBC News understands. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are believed to have flown into the country privately from California with their children, Archie and Lilibet. A spokesman for Harry and Meghan said: “this is not something we would comment on”.

Relocation Reported for August

Last week, media reports said the couple planned to relocate to the UK in August.

They will not return to official duties, and are expected to live in Britain as non-working royals.

It is understood the family intends to base themselves at a private property outside London, in the Cotswolds area.

Archie and Lilibet have been enrolled in school, with the new term due to start next week.

Harry and Meghan stepped back from royal duties in early 2020, before moving to the United States. They settled in California in March of that year.

King and Wales Told, but Visit Focused Elsewhere

King Charles was informed about the move earlier this month.

The family visited the King at his Highgrove home in July this year, but it is understood the relocation was not discussed during that visit.

Before the August plans emerged, Harry and Meghan had not been in the UK together since attending the funeral of Queen Elizabeth II in 2022.

The Prince and Princess of Wales have also been told about the couple’s plans.

Security Questions Still Unresolved

Their return has reopened debate about what security arrangements would be in place for the Sussexes while they are in the UK and who would fund them.

Last year, Harry lost a legal challenge over the level of security he and his family are entitled to when in the country.

He had sought to overturn a decision to downgrade his security after he stopped being a working royal and moved to the US.

After the couple’s intended return was announced, a Home Office spokesperson said decisions on the security of royals are made by the Executive Committee for the Protection of Royalty and Public Figures (Ravec). The spokesperson added that the UK government’s protective security system is “rigorous and proportionate”.

Harry has previously said he worries about safety have prevented him from coming to the UK and bringing Meghan and the children with him.

There has also been recent litigation involving the Sussexes. Last month, Harry and six other public figures lost a High Court privacy case against the publisher of the Daily Mail and Mail.

They face paying legal costs of up to £34.5m to Associated Newspapers.

Still saving the planet I see. One private jet flight at a time.

Apparently, there was a particularly foul odor in The Cotswolds yesterday so I suspect that's where they've gone.

I wonder how long before the first interview of them whining about "PaaPaa" not giving them enough money or maybe one of the peasants tractors delayed their convoy of Range Rovers on the way to the kids private school.

Let's see what happens on the next leg of the tour.

The ginger whinger and his Nigerian princess.... they have collective hides thicker than elephant... they wanted privacy. The media should blacklist them as non-persons... how long will it be before the Nigerian princess runs back to America because she is so disliked in England?...

It's kinda spendy in Montecito trying to keep up with the Oprah's. Did you know private chefs cost $300K a year?

And they can't even make a decent Congress Tart.

Harry tried to find a job but quickly realized he had no skills as he had never worked a day in his life

So back to Daddy looking for a handout 🦄

Nothing but a pair of grifters

In fairness, she is only 43% Nigerian, and 0% Princess. 😄

But hopefully not too long.

When she does, it will all be down to racism, obviously. 😄

The Royal Family needs to completely blank them. I suspect they are looking for new material for Spare 2 - The Sequel.

"In 2026 PaaPaa's butler asked Megz how much milk she wanted in her coffee. Clearly Racist and misogynistic - a real establishment stitch up, yaaaah."

Will the future King Billy be able to maintain the rage until Chucky falls off the perch?

She's looking haggard, time to trade her in for a newer model.

I wouldn't even like to see them in their privates😂

...Playing The Proles... (?)

While the UK royal family do not have direct power they do have enormous influence. 100 years plus of the UK's national decline suggests that this influence has been, at best, rather less than well exercised. I fear that Harry and Meghan's return will only serve to further undermine the royal family's standing in the eyes of their subjects.

Hank and his Skank will be back for only one reason.
There is something going on that will benefit her.
Skank calls , Hank follows.

The only grift left on the checklist is converting to Islam.

I'm holding my breath as the second there’s a Netflix special and a book deal in it, they’ll be posting ‘our journey to the ummah’ ...

You can almost feel the love in this thread.

Get a grip, people. Their return doesn't threaten the stability of the country or change anything in any material way.

Maybe. It always seems to be the Ginger white dudes that convert. A strange phenomenon. Strange, but true.

Don't forget the post-divorce book deal "Meghan... My truth".

I can hardly wait...

Her PR agency were claiming she'd be in Gentleman 3. Can't see it myself, everything they touched turns to butt nuggets and she's not even eye candy any more - looks like a sunburnt potato.

Ginge and Cringe will need something though. Anything. Security is costly.

Maybe a Bonnie & Clyde style bank robbing spree could be on the cards? Would Spare & Despair stoop so low? I say YES.

Agree.

She used to look passable with an inch of makeup but it's more like Duke and Puke these days. 😄

If Harry shaved the balding fluff off his head I reckon he could still get some pretty decent buxom, English village, rosy cheeked, child bearing hips, type of totty. Spend his afternoons drinking cider at a local village pub.

Much better than listening to whiney vocal fry about flower sprinkles in some Cali roastery.

Looking rough but I’d still do her.

Welcome home Ma’am.

Absolutely.

she's minted, I'd happily ride her gravy train.

After Harry's been there?

Braver than me.

On the plus side she hasn't had any kids. Allegedly...

UK Tax payers will love seeing the public funds cheques being signed out for royal maintenance.

Yes, but only if it's back door compliant as well.

Having spent his inheritance, the prodigal returns with his hand out.

Would any AN members give her one?

Paedo adjacent King Charlie ( Laurens Van der Post , Sir Jimmy Saville, Bishop Peter Ball ) and his ex mistress philanderer + Epstein Island Andrew sons of "mummy paid 12 mill" to make the sex crimes go away vs two good humans who try to get away from this tax payer funded car crash wrapped in the flag vs H&M

I choose them every .single. time.

QE2 called William and Kate the Doolittles - quite. I would call them the do Effalls. Bulliam is a nasty piece of work and make no mistake - whearas the Middleton’s are jumped up low life’s masquerading as toffs.

Doors to manual and god speed King Harry - prince of all our hearts.
