King Charles, Prince Harry, and Meghan Markle are once again at the center of royal speculation. Fresh claims suggest the monarch is working to remove obstacles for the couple. This could pave the way for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex to take on a limited royal role after their reported UK return.
King Charles is reportedly ‘removing obstacles’ for Harry and Meghan to get their ‘half in, half out’ royal role
British broadcaster Ian Pelham Turner spoke to the Express about the situation, claiming there has been “a big push” behind the scenes. According to Turner, officials want to help Harry and Meghan find a level of royal involvement that is acceptable.
He alleged that King Charles is leading the effort. The monarch is expected to discuss Prince Harry’s potential future role with Prince William. Turner claimed it is “well known” that Harry and Meghan still want to support charities in Britain. He also suggested that changes among palace staff could make a “half in, half out” arrangement, which Harry previously sought, more achievable.
The broadcaster further alleged that King Charles has been encouraging Prince William to move past the ongoing family tensions. According to Turner, the King believes restoring family unity is a priority, even as differences between the brothers remain.
The claims come as reports continue to circulate that the Sussexes are planning a move back to Britain later this month. Neither Meghan Markle, Prince Harry, nor their representatives have publicly confirmed those reports themselves. However, the BBC reported that a spokesperson for the Sussexes confirmed that the couple intends to relocate to a private home outside London. The non-royal residence will be near their children’s new school, where Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet are expected to study.
Royal News co-founder Brittani Barger also spoke to the Express. She said potential talks between King Charles and Prince William would not be surprising. Those discussions would likely focus on Prince Harry’s future role. She added that any agreement would require “a lot of discussions and negotiations.”
At this stage, officials have not made an official announcement about a future royal role for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. The reported discussions remain based on expert commentary, and Buckingham Palace has not publicly commented on the claims.
