There have been subtle hints that things are changing for Prince Harry in the last few months. There’s the fact that he was very open in that BBC interview about wanting to reconcile with his father. Then there are reports that his aides met with King Charles’ aides in what is being painted as the first step towards reconciliation. And that’s without going into the rumors that he and Meghan Markle might be moving back to the UK.
Now, the rumors have become even stronger. According to Grant Harrold, former personal butler to King Charles, Prince Harry wants his kids to have a British education. “It’s very likely and it’s completely possible because if they have their younger education in America, I’m sure their father will be quite keen to have a bit of a British education, but then it depends on how the relationship is with the rest of the family when the time comes,” he said.
That will, of course, depend on how the possible reconciliation between Prince Harry and King Charles goes, and Harry has spoken out about his security concerns regarding bringing his children back to the UK. Presumably, if he’s on better terms with his father, the security matter might be taken care of, so the King can be near his grandchildren. Or, it might be an option down the line, when Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet are older.
“Time will tell, but I’d like to think that they would get a bit of education here because royals normally do some gap year somewhere,” Harrold added.

Meghan Markle has spoken about her concerns with her children going to school in the UK. In a 2022 interview with The Cut, she talked about how she wouldn’t be able to drop him off and pick him up at school in the UK without having to deal with paparazzi. “Sorry,” Meghan said, per Hello! “I have a problem with that. That doesn’t make me obsessed with privacy. That makes me a strong and good parent protecting my child.”
However, Prince Harry has reportedly been keen on leaving options open for his children to make their own decisions when they’re older. The Guardian reported that Prince Harry wanted his kids to have the opportunity to become working royals in the future if they so desired. “Prince Harry wants to keep the HRH [His/Her Royal Highness] titles for his children so that when they grow older, they can decide for themselves whether they want to become working royals, or stay out of public life.”
Reports indicate Prince William isn’t keen to open his arms to his brother. Royal expert Hilary Fordwich told Fox News Digital the two are farther apart than ever. “Over the years, the gulf has widened between Prince William all Harry, all due to Harry’s ever-public denigration of the royal family, not the least of which has been this most recent BBC interview. Prince William is more resolved than ever to take action once he becomes king. His overriding concern is protecting the monarchy, which he sees as denigrated by commercial endeavors,” she said.
Another royal expert, Ian Pelham Turner, agreed. “The short answer (is) will William forgive Harry and Meghan and welcome them back? A big fat royal no,” Turner told Fox News Digital. “King Charles will have to overrule his petulant son once again if the Sussexes wish to make up and return.
Either way, it looks like reconciliation is in the cards for King Charles and Prince Harry. Whether that can include Prince William and, later, a move to the UK, remains to be seen.
