Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's reported plan to return to the UK with their children for the first time in years is already triggering fresh royal tensions, with one commentator claiming the move could deeply frustrate Prince William. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have been at odds with the royal family after they stepped back from their royal duties and moved to California.
The prospect of them returning as a family has reignited debate over their standing within the monarchy, particularly given their public criticism of the institution since stepping back as senior working royals in 2020. While the trip is reportedly tied to Prince Harry's work with the Invictus Games, some royal watchers believe the visit carries wider significance.
