The British Royal Family could be on the cusp of a dramatic shift as Prince Harry reportedly contemplates a return to England, a revelation that has reportedly left his wife, Meghan Markle, reeling. Sources close to the Sussexes reveal that Harry, deeply homesick and moved by a strong sense of familial duty, has broached the subject of moving back to his homeland with Meghan, causing a significant stir within their household.
"When he told Meghan, she was beyond shocked. She can't believe he's even considering it!" disclosed an insider, as reported by Life & Style, highlighting the tension this decision has introduced.
This bombshell news emerged shortly after Prince Harry's virtual appearance at the Diana Legacy Awards, where he was warmly received. "It's a privilege to have [his] support," noted Dr. Tessy Ojo, chief executive of the Diana Award, signifying the importance of Harry's involvement, especially during the organization's milestone 25th year.
Business Times has not been able to independently verify this claim.
Prince Harry's longing to return is fueled not only by nostalgia but also by a heartfelt desire to support his family through their ongoing challenges. The Duke has recently rekindled his relationship with his brother, Prince William, and his father, King Charles III, amid health concerns and Princess Kate's recovery from an undisclosed surgery. "He wants to help out," shared a source, emphasizing Harry's renewed commitment to his royal roots.
However, the potential move has sparked a rift between Harry and Meghan, with the latter firmly opposed to leaving their life in California behind. The dispute has escalated to one of the couple's most significant disagreements to date, with Harry reportedly accusing Meghan of lacking compassion for his family's plight. "Harry accused her of having no compassion, and it led to one of the biggest fights they've ever had," the source revealed, shedding light on the depth of their conflict.
Amid this family turmoil, Harry is said to be considering making the journey alone if necessary. "Though he would never really leave Meghan and the kids behind, he did threaten he would go to England without her," the insider added, underlining Harry's desperation to be closer to his family during this critical period.
Complicating matters further is the controversy surrounding a recent Mother's Day photograph of Kate Middleton and her children, which was pulled from circulation due to suspicions of digital manipulation. Kate later addressed the issue, stating, "Like many amateur photographers, I do occasionally experiment with editing." Her admission did little to quell the swirling rumors and speculation that have shrouded the royal family since her surgery.
In a latest video message, Princess Kate expressed her gratitude for the public's support and understanding during what she described as "an incredibly tough couple of months for our entire family." She also unveiled her presence of cancer, propelling the Princess into the early stages of chemotherapy treatment, and asked for privacy and space as she continues her treatment, according to Business Times.
As Harry and Meghan ponder their future, speculation about their potential residence in England has surfaced. Having previously lived at Nottingham Cottage and Frogmore Cottage, the couple has reportedly been offered a new place to stay by King Charles, suggesting a pathway for their potential return to royal life.
At the core of Harry's deliberations is an unwavering commitment to supporting his family during a time described by insiders as a crisis for the royals. The intricate web of personal desires, public duties, and internal family dynamics paints a complex portrait of a family at a crossroads, navigating the challenging terrain of royal obligations and personal fulfillment. As the world watches, the decisions made by Harry and Meghan in the coming months could have far-reaching implications for the royal family's narrative and their place within it.
