Prince Harry and Meghan, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, arrived in the United Kingdom on Wednesday, marking their return after six years in the United States, according to reports by the BBC and the Daily Telegraph. Their private charter flight from Van Nuys, California, landed at Birmingham International Airport at 11:56 a.m., the Telegraph reported.
The couple’s children, Prince Archie, 7, and Princess Lilibet, 5, have enrolled in British schools and are set to begin classes in September. The family plans to reside at a private, nonroyal home outside London, though the exact location has not been disclosed. Prince Harry’s representative declined to comment on the move.
Harry and Meghan stepped back from royal duties in 2020, relocating to California, where they later secured media deals with Netflix and Spotify. Relations with the royal family have been strained, with the couple publicly criticizing palace staff over insensitivity to Meghan’s mental health and alleging racism within the institution. Tensions with Prince William, the heir to the throne, remain unresolved, though Harry has expressed a desire to reconcile with his father, King Charles III, who is undergoing treatment for an undisclosed cancer diagnosed in 2024.
Last month, Harry, Meghan and their children visited Charles at his Highgrove Estate in western England during a charity trip, the first in-person meeting between the king and his grandchildren since 2022. Charles was not informed of the family’s relocation plans until last week, according to the Associated Press.
The couple’s return has drawn significant media attention, with outlets including The New York Times and the Financial Times speculating on the implications of their move. The Times also noted Harry’s reported plans to take on a more hands-on role as a father, including school runs, as the family settles in the UK .
Prince William has not publicly addressed his brother’s return, a silence noted by The New York Times amid years of strained relations .
