Prince Harry and Meghan Markle stepped away from the royal family about four years ago, a decision many believed would be final. However, in the years since, their lives have been anything but peaceful, as controversies have continued to follow them. This departure strained the royal family, creating a deep rift. Recently, however, there have been signs that Prince Harry is yearning to return to the UK. While some attribute this to the couple's reportedly declining popularity in the US, the Duke describes it as a natural longing to return to his royal roots.

Recent reports indicate that Prince Harry has sought guidance from former British advisors to help him navigate his efforts to reconnect with the royal family.

According to a Sunday report by the Daily Mail, Prince Harry has sought advice from trusted former aides in Britain on how to orchestrate a return from his US exile, following indications of his desire to return to the UK. Insiders reveal the Duke is consulting with people from his former life as a working royal, having grown disillusioned with State-based consultants. The first step in the Duke's potential return to the royal family would involve spending considerable time in Britain to make amendments to his father.

This is supposed to lay the groundwork for a partial return to the royal fold, as some have called the task, “Operation Bring Harry in From The Cold”. Sources have also highlighted that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are not aiming for a permanent return to the UK. However, the outlet also noted that the Sussexes have parted ways with another PR advisor, Christine Weil Schirmer, just last year.

The reports underscore a key aspect of the Duke’s alleged intentions to arrange a partial return. This desire is driven by his wish to spend more meaningful time in the UK.

According to a recent report by the Daily Mail, a permanent move back to the UK is allegedly off the table for Prince Harry. He hopes that instead of quietly slipping in and out of the country, he can spend more quality time in the UK. A friend has even crafted a strategy, putting together a blueprint for how the Prince could gradually re-enter UK circles, waiting for the right moment to present it to him.

Some believe that if Prince Harry returns to the UK quietly, without any fanfare or publicity, and participates in even the most mundane events, he might win back the British public’s favor. There is even speculation that he could take on low-key royal duties again, though these activities might not be on the same grand scale as before. However, whether this peace offering will be made and accepted by the royal family remains to be seen.
