So Harry and family are coming back!

Re security.

With all the scrutiny of the RF finances, I think the palace will need to be very mindful of any cost to the ‘hard working taxpayers’ that will be paid to any non working royals, Kings’s family or not.

I’m sure the outdoorsy, sunny California life will be missed by all of them once we hit November/December/January/February.

Not much trotting round in bare feet and leaping into open air swimming pools with your sunglasses on.

They are obviously hoping to resume their royal status and carry out royal duties. .... obviously! - where do you get that from?

I just hope they will find some peace and happiness and that the children will settle in school.

The trouble will start if they start upstaging the other two.
Perhaps the King has agreed to pay part of Harry's £50 million lawyers'bill provided that they behave themselves.
The press have already started banging on about their being "private citizens".
Can anyone imagine their keeping a low profile.???

They must be struggling financially in Lalaland since all their ventures have failed including the latest Archewell production related to cookie queens.

Very brave of them to return to the UK since not many people here like them.

Glad to see that they are relocating back as a family and not going their separate ways,

Amazing how everyone knows details of their minds, bank accounts, children’s needs etc.
I wish them all the best, hope they find somewhere nice to live, aren’t hounded by the press or criticised every time they dare breathe. Good luck to them.

“Speak roughly to your little boy
And beat him when he sneezes.
He only does it to annoy
Because he knows it teases

Lewis Caroll

Is this some kind of sick joke? After trashing the family, making false accusations of racism, destroying the peace and contentment of QEII and her dutiful husband in their final years, trying to undermine William, Catherine and Camilla when all they have displayed is devotion to the monarchy! Not to mention the dubious authenticity of two children
It beggars belief.
If this return is sanctioned by the King, he should be ashamed and my admiration for him all through his life is over.

Another media feeding frenzy wiping any other news off the metaphorical front pages.

They'll probably stage some sort of security panic to gain sympathy and the sort of royal protection that they think they need.
Poor William and Catherine. They must be girding their loins to deal with all sorts of attention seeking nonsense from this two.

Will she expect the other school mums to curtesy to her

Well I don't suppose the children will be going to the local school but some very expensive prep school , will they be taking them in a Chelsea truck or cycling with them on the back, ( Princess Margaret's son did this) , God you can hear the chattering mums wondering if their little ones will be going to the same school, perhaps Megan will join the WhatsApp class group? 🙄

Info re Harry's visa was released (heavily redacted) but there is still pressure to release further information as the admissions Harry made in his book about drug use would have denied him a visa or prove he lied on the visa application. Trump has said he'll leave him alone for now, but who can trust Trump. I think maybe the RF are more appealing to Harry and Megan (vocally anti Trump) than the American administration right now.

As the bank a/c must be shrinking I think it’s to save on air fares. The Cotswolds are closer to Portugal than Montecito.

The only person who has really respected and revered Diana's memory is her son, William who hasn't spoken of her for years. Others have just used her life and death to make money and wallow in misery to gain public sympathy, Earl Spencer being the latest to do so. Even for you Paddyann, your post was quite shocking to the point that I almost feel sorry for you. Surely even you can't rejoice in the terrible death of Louis Charles, or Alexi Romanov, never mind their parents and family. Thank goodness Gransnet deleted your cruel comments.

Disappointed not to be able to read what paddy said.

Funny old world. Children being pitchforked into new schools and new countries, nothing new there.

I'm not massively interested but the security must be a total nightmare. Surely they would have been better to stay in the US.

The Cotswolds are nowhere near the Althrop Estate??

*loved

I am not surprised at Harry waning to come back and he is delusional enough to think he can win people back and become the nations' lived 'Cheeky chappy Prince' again but I am surprised he convinced Meghan as she clearly hated it here and has zero understanding of British life let alone the Royal family!

I wonder whose predictions will turn out to be right.

Breaking News says Harry will likely favour the Cotswolds to be near the Spencer estate and family. Lucky old Cotswolds, if true.

Of course he does and so will Meghan. It’s close to everything and everyone in their world.
Soho Farmhouse are probably sprucing up the new pad as we speak.

Age is a protected characteristic under the equality act. People would not use the other protected characteristics such as sexuality, race as a slur but age seems fair gane. It is weird.

Message deleted by Gransnet. Quotes a deleted post.

Thinking about it, I think it's a step in the right direction.
Perhaps Meghan will not stay. I wonder if she is thinking she will get a better divorce settlement in the uk and she knows the children will be looked after.
Just a thought.
