Prince Harry, Meghan and children arrive in UK after 6 years

Prince Harry and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, along with their children Archie and Lilibet, have returned to the UK after a six-year absence, according to The Telegraph. The family touched down at Birmingham Airport around midday on Wednesday, after a private flight from California. They are expected to reside at a property in the Cotswolds, where they will live as private individuals rather than serving as working members of the Royal Family.

Their children have been enrolled in a school in the UK, with the new academic term set to commence next week. A source close to the family told The Telegraph that the length of their stay in the UK remains uncertain, possibly ranging from a few months to a couple of years. Harry and Meghan left the UK in early 2020, following their decision to step back from their roles as working members of the Royal Family, and relocated to California.

Their return coincides with several years spent living in the US. King Charles was briefed about the family's plans earlier in the month. Harry, Meghan, and their children also met with the King at Highgrove during their previous visit to the UK last month. Both the Prince and Princess of Wales have been notified of the family's intentions.

This return to the UK has reignited discussions surrounding Harry's security arrangements in the country. In the previous year, he unsuccessfully challenged a decision to reduce his publicly-funded security allowance after he left his working royal duties and moved to the US.
