Prince Harry ‘eyes return to UK duties’ as Kate and William prepare for September milestone liennhi
Prince Harry has sought advice from his former British aides about plotting a return from the US that could involve a partial reinstatement to the royal fold, sources have revealed.
In what has been described as the initial stage in a strategy to “rehabilitate” him, The Mail on Sunday reported the Duke of Sussex has been seeking help from advisers he had when he was a working royal amid increasing alleged issues with American-based PR firms.
A key aim of the claimed move would be for Harry to repair his relationship with his father – although the sources stressed he and his wife Meghan Markle are not looking to make a permanent return to the UK.
It comes as the Prince and Princess of Wales prepare their children to return to school after enjoying their summer break at Balmoral.
Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis are all pupils at Lambrook School in Bracknell and will return for the Michaelmas term on Wednesday (4 September).
As George, 11, approaches the end of his time at prep school, it is understood that he may follow in his father’s footsteps and attend Eton College when he turns 13, as opposed to his mother’s preferred choice of Marlborough College, an insider claimed to the MailOnline.
Kate and William ‘more popular' than King Charles
The Prince and Princess of Wales are more popular than King Charles, a new YouGov poll has revealed.
While the monarch has a favourability rating of 63%, almost three-quarters of the British population have a positive view of the future king and queen (74–75%).
Princess Anne, the poll showed, had a similarly high level of popularity and 71% of respondents said they had a positive view of the woman often described as the hardest-working royal.
