Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are reportedly preparing to relocate to Britain with their two children, although conflicting reports have emerged over whether the move will be permanent.
Several major US media organisations reported that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are planning to return to the UK after approximately six years living in the United States.
Reports said the couple would move with their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, with some outlets claiming the children have been enrolled at a school in Britain.
However, the couple are not expected to resume duties as working members of the Royal Family.
The biggest uncertainty concerns how permanent the relocation will be.
TMZ reported that Harry and Meghan have no intention of selling their Montecito mansion in California, citing sources who described reports that the property would be sold as inaccurate.
According to the outlet, the family instead intends to treat its time in Britain as a temporary relocation, retaining its California residence and ultimately returning to the United States.
Meghan’s mother, Doria Ragland, is also reportedly remaining in the US rather than relocating with the family.
Harry and Meghan moved to California in 2020 after stepping back as senior working royals. They subsequently established their home in Montecito and pursued independent media, charitable and commercial projects.
The reports therefore point towards a significant return to Britain for the Sussex family, but claims that they are permanently abandoning the United States appear premature if they are retaining their California home and planning to return.
