A new report offers insight into Meghan Markle‘s position on moving back to the UK with Prince Harry. The news follows the Sussex family’s return to Britain after six years living in Montecito, California. Since then, speculation has grown about what led the Duchess to agree to return, considering her previous remarks about the royal family.
Meghan Markle was reportedly ‘all-in’ with Prince Harry’s plan to return to the UK
According to friends of Prince Harry, Meghan Markle was “all-in” on returning to the UK. The pair shared their unexpected announcement last month and relocated only days afterwards.
Their children, seven-year-old Prince Archie and five-year-old Princess Lilibet, have reportedly already been enrolled at a school in the UK. Meanwhile, the couple is believed to have settled into a new home in the Cotswolds, though its exact location remains under wraps.
As per Alison Boshoff’s latest Daily Mail column, Markle was “100 percent” committed to relocating to the UK. It read, “Harry’s friends continue to stoutly insist that ‘Megs’ is ‘100 per cent all-in’ with the move. Time will tell, as it will be a challenge for her to keep her As Ever Instagram feed full of aspirational Californian sunshine content when she’s having a wet Wednesday on the school run.”
Elsewhere, a former friend of the “Suits” alum spoke out after the Sussexes’ August 26 UK arrival. The source suggested that she was likely overwhelmed by “very mixed emotions.”
In a recent conversation with Cafe Casino, brand and culture expert Nick Ede also offered his take. Meghan Markle’s former friend said that she wouldn’t return as a new royal navigating an unfamiliar system. Instead, the Duchess now has her own businesses, profile, and boundaries as an independent woman. That could make the experience feel more manageable.
Ede further noted that Markle may never fully relax around the British media. However, a private home and clear separation from royal duties could let her engage with the UK on her own terms. That said, the non-working royals still have practical concerns about living in the UK, with security and privacy remaining top issues.
