Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are reportedly preparing for a major shift back to Britain after six years of building an independent life in California. The couple plans to keep their Montecito home and Portugal property while reportedly establishing a private UK base for their family.
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s American dream reportedly ‘lies shattered’ amid UK return
Harry and Meghan reportedly plan to return to the UK before the end of August with Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet. The children may start school in Britain in September. The family does not plan to move into royal accommodation. Instead, they reportedly plan to set up a private home in the UK. They will also keep their $29 million Montecito mansion and Portugal property. The move does not mean Harry and Meghan will resume royal duties. They will remain private citizens and continue their independent projects.
When Harry and Meghan moved to California, they entered the US entertainment industry with huge global attention and many business opportunities. A source told Radar Online that the couple initially believed their royal status could help them build a successful entertainment business and become financially independent from the monarchy. “They had extraordinary deals, access to virtually anyone in Hollywood, and a level of global attention that very few people could command,” the insider said. “Six years later, the landscape looks dramatically different, and their American dream essentially lies shattered.”
The couple have released several successful projects, especially those based on their experiences within the Royal Family. Their Netflix documentary Harry & Meghan drew major attention, while Harry’s 2023 memoir Spare became a commercial success. Their production company, Archewell Productions, also signed a reported $100 million Netflix deal in 2020. Harry and Meghan later secured a Spotify deal reportedly worth $20 million. Despite these successes, an insider claimed some other projects disappeared, faced cancellation, or failed to make the expected impact.
