Overview
- The Sussexes landed on a private flight and arrived in Britain on Wednesday, then moved into an extended stay at a private, non‑royal residence reported to be in the Cotswolds.
- Archie and Lilibet have been enrolled in UK schools and are due to start at the beginning of the autumn term, which prompted the family’s extended presence in the country.
- Harry and Meghan will remain private, non‑working members of the royal family and plan to keep homes overseas, including properties in Montecito and Portugal.
- Who will provide and pay for the couple’s UK security is unresolved after Harry lost a recent legal challenge that reduced his publicly funded protection, leaving potential costs and arrangements under review.
- The move comes as the couple face ongoing legal liabilities from recent court losses, continued intense media scrutiny, and unconfirmed reports about Meghan possibly returning to acting.
