Meghan’s visits to the UK have been infrequent, with her last return in September 2022. The couple brought their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, to the UK for Queen Elizabeth’s Platinum Jubilee in 2022. While Harry has made several trips to the UK and met with his father in February 2023, a reunion with his brother, Prince William, has yet to occur.
Since stepping back from royal duties in 2020, Harry and Meghan have resided in Montecito, California. Official documents indicate that Harry’s United States residency began on June 29, 2023, coinciding with Buckingham Palace’s confirmation of their departure from Frogmore Cottage.
Frogmore Cottage, a four-bedroom property in Windsor, was gifted to the couple by the late Queen Elizabeth II as a wedding present. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex had intended to retain it for their visits to the UK.
Reports suggest that Princess Anne played a pivotal role in advising King Charles on this decision. Scobie claims that Anne was “at the forefront of the supporters of the firm approach” adopted by the Palace, influencing the King’s choice to proceed with the eviction.
