Harry, Meghan surprised by King Charles’ letter on their status
A letter authorised by King Charles made it clear that Prince Harry and his wife Meghan were no longer working members of the royal family and would remain private citizens.
Prince Harry and his wife Meghan, along with their two children, suddenly returned to live in Britain after moving to the US six years ago. This unexpected move came as a surprise, even to close family members, as King Charles only learned of their return days before the news became public. A letter, authorized by Charles, was sent to senior British officials, clarifying that Harry and Meghan were no longer working members of the royal family.
The status they had previously agreed upon with the late Queen Elizabeth in 2020 allowed them personal latitude in terms of financial independence and privacy protection. The letter stated that there was no change to their current status, describing them as private citizens with commercial and charitable interests. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex continue to engage in charitable work on their own accord, while also pursuing commercial deals, including a partnership with streaming giant Netflix.
Meghan has launched a lifestyle brand called As Ever. A committee is set to meet this week to determine the appropriate level of security for the Duke and Duchess as they re-enter British territory.
