I think it's their business and if they want to come back to the U.K., they can come back to the U.K.
I hope they can reconcile their differences.
If they are in the U.K., they should take on the role and be working royals and take on their role seriously.
If they are on the British soil, they should do as the others.
Six years after the Duke and Duchess of Sussex left the United Kingdom to start their new life in the United States,
they are set to return.
The Telegraph broke the story yesterday and it's since been followed by other members of the British media citing sources.
King Charles reportedly only found out about Prince Harry's plans on Sunday.
Now, we don't know exactly what the family plans to do here or how Prince Harry and Meghan Markle plan to make a living
considering they won't be returning to active royal duty.
They will be living in the United Kingdom as regular citizens as much as a royal can live a regular life.
Now, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, the children, are scheduled to start school in England come September.
So, their move will happen relatively quickly.
Though, there is a lot of unanswered questions regarding the security of the family.
Security was one of Prince Harry's main complaints and concerns,
saying that he was going to leave in part because of his family's safety and security.
Prime Minister Andy Burnham was asked about the security for Prince Harry and his family
and he said that that is a private family matter, although he did wish them well in their return.
The fact that they are coming back now is raising a lot of questions.
It's unclear as to why they're moving.
There was a family reunion between King Charles, Queen Camilla, Prince Harry, Meghan Markle
and the two small children last month.
In fact, it was the first time that the royals saw the two small grandchildren in four years.
So, it could be the start of mending some fences.
But when it comes to the British public, well, they are mixed on the family's return.
Pleased that he's coming back. Family shouldn't argue as much as they do.
Why are they? What sort of response do they expect?
It's such a big to-do that they were going and we were all horrible and racist and now they're coming back.
I think they're disrespectful, the way they've treated the royal family here.
