Prince Harry will not be making a permanent return to the United Kingdom, despite recent speculation, BBC cited wellplaced sources within the royal houshold.
The Duke of Sussex intends to remain based in the United States, where he lives with his wife, Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, and their children.
Reports had suggested that Prince Harry might be considering a phased return to the UK, potentially seeking to reconnect with his royal roots as he approaches his 40th birthday.
However, these claims have been refuted by sources close to the Duke, who indicate that a permanent move back to the UK is not on the agenda.
Concerns about security for Prince Harry and his family in the UK have reportedly influenced this decision.
The couple's ongoing philanthropic and business ventures in the US also play a significant role in their choice to stay. Harry and Meghan have established numerous projects and initiatives during their time in the US, which they are unlikely to abandon.
The Duke of Sussex did recently travel to the UK for a memorial service for his late uncle, Lord Robert Fellowes.
Following the service, he returned to the US.
During this visit, much attention was focused on the perceived distance between Prince Harry and his brother, Prince William, as they reportedly did not engage in conversation at the event.
The memorial was for Lord Fellowes, who was the brother-in-law of Princess Diana and remained a figure of connection for Harry.
While there have been reports of dissatisfaction with life in California and a desire to re-establish links with his former royal life, sources confirm that Prince Harry is not pursuing a full-time return to the UK. He remains committed to supporting his charitable work and projects from the US and is expected to continue making visits to the UK as needed.
