According to an announcement from Buckingham Palace, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle will not return to the British royal family as working royals. Following discussions between Harry and Queen Elizabeth, as well as other members of the British royal family, the decision was made.

When Harry and Meghan left full-time royal life in March 2020, citing exhausting media attention and role restrictions, it was decided that the situation would be reviewed a year later.

 

The entire statement from Buckingham Palace on the Duke and Duchess of Sussex is as follows:

 

“The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have confirmed to Her Majesty The Queen that they will not be returning as working members of The Royal Family.

“Following conversations with The Duke, The Queen has written confirming that in stepping away from the work of The Royal Family it is not possible to continue with the responsibilities and duties that come with a life of public service. The honorary military appointments and Royal patronages held by The Duke and Duchess will therefore be returned to Her Majesty, before being redistributed among working members of The Royal Family.

“While all are saddened by their decision, The Duke and Duchess remain much loved members of the family.”

 

The couple is now in the United States. They had relocated to Los Angeles, and Meghan is expecting her second child after a traumatic miscarriage following the birth of their first child, Prince Archie.

 

Harry’s appointment as captain general of the Royal Marines, as well as other military ranks, will revert to the queen before being allocated to other members of the family, according to the palace.

 

The Royal Marines, RAF Honington, Royal Navy Small Ships and Diving, The Queen’s Commonwealth Trust, The Rugby Football Union, The Rugby Football League, The Royal National Theatre, and The Association of Commonwealth Universities are among the military, Commonwealth, and charitable organizations that will pass from Harry and Meghan to The Queen.

 

Harry spent a decade with the British army, including on the front lines in Afghanistan, and maintains a strong relationship with the military. He created the Invictus Games, a famous tournament for wounded soldiers that first took place in 2014 at London’s Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park.

 

Harry will continue to be a patron of the Invictus Games Foundation, according to the organization.

 

Since stepping down from royal duties last year, the couple has relocated to the United States and established their own company, Archewell, which has signed deals with Netflix and Spotify, as well as releasing a new podcast and producing new streaming programs, films, and documentaries.

 

Meghan Markle, the former star of the TV legal thriller “Suits” married Harry in May 2018 at Windsor Castle. Archie, their son, was born a year later.

 

The couple agreed not to use the titles “royal highness” or “HRH” and not to accept public funding for their work, though it was unknown if such decisions would be binding at the time. The couple’s rifts with Harry’s older brother Prince William and his wife Princess Catherine — the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge — were also published in the British tabloids.

 

Harry and his wife will keep their titles as duke and duchess for the time being, and Harry will remain sixth in line to the British throne. Harry and Meghan have moved to Santa Barbara, California, to be closer to their families.
