Harry and Meghan to make first UK appearance together since move back from US

LONDON, October 11 — According to media reports, Britain's Prince Harry and his wife Meghan are set to carry out their first joint engagement since returning to live in the UK in August, the Sunday Times has revealed. The couple, aged 42 and 45 respectively, will visit Nottingham, a city in central England where they made their first joint appearance when they announced their engagement in 2017.

This visit symbolizes their intention to be seen as public figures, despite the king's recent letter stating their position is more akin to that of private citizens and they should not be addressed as His and Her Royal Highnesses. The royal couple, who left Britain and gave up royal duties in 2020 amid a contentious family dispute, is expected to visit projects at three charities aiding young individuals and local communities via music, film, sports, and initiatives to combat food poverty.

Although Harry and Meghan have since mended relations with their father King Charles III, they remain on strained terms with Prince William, Harry's older brother and heir to the throne. The couple moved back to the United Kingdom with their two children, Archie, seven, and Lilibet, five, in August, with plans to return to the US for Christmas, a friend reportedly told AFP.

Traditionally, the royal family gathers at the king's Sandringham estate in eastern England during the festive season.
