King Charles was only told about Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s return last weekend, GB News understands.
Prince Harry and Meghan are moving back to Britain in the biggest shift in their family life since stepping away from royal duties in 2020.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are relocating with Prince Archie, seven, and Princess Lilibet, five, to the UK for an extended period beginning this month, with the children set to begin school there in September.
The couple will maintain their home in Montecito, California, and their vacation property in Portugal while establishing a private, non-royal home base in Britain.
The location of the family’s new home and the children’s school are being closely guarded.
The move gives Harry, 41, and Meghan, 45, their first home base in Britain since they relinquished the lease on Frogmore Cottage, the Windsor residence gifted to them by the late Queen Elizabeth in 2023.
King Charles, 77, asked them to vacate the property following the publication of Harry’s raw 2023 memoir, Spare.
King Charles was made aware of the couple’s plans on Sunday, August 16, GB News understands, and welcomes the opportunity to see more of the Sussex family in a private and personal capacity.
