Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have reportedly found a new UK home: a property on a wealthy businessman friend’s Cotswolds estate. The couple relocated to the UK in August with Archie, 7, and Lilibet, 5, and Harry reportedly connected with the businessman through their shared support of military charities. The estate sits near King Charles’s Highgrove residence, adding a fresh layer to the family dynamics everyone keeps watching.
Reports say the Sussexes are keeping their $14.5 million Montecito mansion, so this looks like a dual-continent setup rather than a permanent goodbye to California. The family reportedly left the UK again last week for an unspecified destination, which keeps the details fuzzy.
The move comes during a tough stretch for Meghan. Her estranged father, Thomas Markle Sr., remains under investigation over child pornography allegations, and sources say she is devastated, even tearing up while looking at Lilibet. Meghan has previously said her distance from her father was about protecting her children. Do you think a UK return was the right call for the family right now?
