Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have returned to the UK with their children, but their move comes with an important clarification from King Charles. After the couple stepped down as working royals in 2020, the King confirmed that their royal status will remain unchanged despite their new home in Britain. A letter issued on his behalf explained that Harry and Meghan will continue to live as private citizens and will not resume official royal duties. Their charitable work will also remain separate from the work carried out by working members of the Royal Family. The couple\u2019s spokesperson said they were \u201ca little surprised\u201d that they had not been informed about the letter before it was released. The development has renewed attention on Harry and Meghan\u2019s relationship with the Royal Family, particularly as they begin another chapter closer to relatives in Britain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Security is also expected to remain an important consideration for the Sussexes as they settle back into life in the UK. Security specialist Tom Geddes said a large Cotswolds property could require extensive protection, including perimeter monitoring, surveillance technology and trained personnel. He estimated that comprehensive security could become a major annual expense, although the figures discussed were estimates rather than an official bill. Their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, are also expected to require carefully planned arrangements around school travel and public outings. Harry\u2019s security has been a long-running legal issue, following the decision to change his level of publicly funded protection after he stopped being a working royal. Now, with the family back in Britain, the challenge will be balancing privacy, safety and their desire for a more settled family life while maintaining their position outside the working monarchy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
