Meghan Markle & Prince Harry: Planning Permanent Move to UK?


Are Meghan Markle and Prince Harry hoping to move back to the UK for good?

That’s the claim being made by journalist and royal expert Tom Quinn this week.

According to Quinn, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are ready to call it a wrap on their SoCal experiment.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle: Are They Actually Moving Back to the UK?

“Inevitably, the honeymoon period where everything in the States is new and exciting is coming to an end. And Harry is looking back at the past through rose-tinted spectacles,” Quinn said in a recent interview with the Mirror.

According to Quinn, Harry “misses” his army and college friends, who have allegedly refused to visit him in California.

Quinn claims that the reason for this embargo is the fact that “they don’t get on with Meghan.”

Meghan-bashing is practically required of royal journalists in the UK these days.

So we guess we shouldn’t be surprised by the fact that Quinn felt the need to slip in a jab.

But his claims shouldn’t necessarily be dismissed just because of his obvious bias.

Quinn says he has it on good authority that Harry and Meghan are planning to re-cross the pond.

But he admits that there are stumbling blocks, including concerns about security.

Harry and Meghan Might Find It Difficult to Return to London

After being stripped of the usual royal protections, Harry sued for the right to hire police for his private security.

He lost, however. And it’s unclear how he would ensure his family’s protection if the Sussexes were to return to the UK.

“Harry is determined to find his own permanent home in the UK, which is partly why he’s continuing his legal action to get the British taxpayer to pay for his security,” Quinn claimed.

The housing matter is also an issue.

Last year, King Charles evicted Harry and Meghan from Frogmore Cottage.

The estate had previously served as the couple’s home during their visits to the UK.

And then there’s the matter of Harry’s decision to list the US as his country of permanent residence on legal documents.

None of these things would make it impossible for Harry and Meghan to pull up stakes, of course.

But the situation might be far more complex than Quinn is making it out to be.
