Prince Harry’s possible return to the UK royal life comes with one particular palace boundary. Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle, are reportedly eyeing a UK return after their private meeting with King Charles on July 10 at his residence. However, Buckingham Palace is not ready to welcome the Sussexes just yet and has allegedly raised doubts over his sudden desire to return to Britain.
Prince Harry has no realistic route back to official duties, sources say
Prince Harry’s possible royal return reportedly comes with terms and conditions. The Duke of Sussex may be longing for his home country and the royal life he left behind to pursue his American dream. However, Buckingham Palace is not ready to welcome him just yet.
A senior royal source raised suspicion to Rob Shuter‘s Naughty But Nice, stating, “No one doubts Harry misses parts of his old life. The question is what exactly he misses. Is it his family—or the status, security, and influence that came with being a working royal?”
Those close to Harry’s father, King Charles, have shared that the royal palace does not trust the Sussexes anymore. Another insider shared, “Trust has been shattered. Private family conversations have become books, television interviews, documentaries, lawsuits, and endless headlines. People inside the Palace are asking one question: what’s different this time?”
As per Shuter, Buckingham Palace is not on board with the Sussexes’ part-time royal title. The pair sought this arrangement when they had stepped down as working royals in 2020. However, the palace is reportedly not interested in this “half-in, half-out” arrangement.
A palace source said, “The late Queen said no, and that answer still stands. You can’t be a part-time royal. You’re either all in or you’re all out.” Finally, the source explained that even if “Harry may eventually be welcomed back as a son,” he might not be accepted as a working royal, as “that ship has sailed.”
Previously, it was reported that the Sussexes are planning to reverse their 2020 Megxit after their recent brief trip to the UK to meet Charles at his residence. As per the Daily Mail, the couple’s American dream did not yield desirable results, and hence, they are eyeing a UK return.
