Prince Harry and Meghan Markle weigh UK return amid Portugal villa purchase

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are reportedly evaluating a possible return to the United Kingdom after four years in California. Sources say the couple’s recent private meeting with King Charles III and the children’s first extended stay with their grandfather have improved family ties and sparked discussions about spending more time in Britain.

At the same time, the Sussexes have bought a luxury villa in Portugal’s Algarve, which they intend to use as a European base. The move follows reports that Harry feels “unwelcome” in the United States and that their American commercial profile has cooled. Ongoing legal issues over police protection for the family in the UK are also cited as a logistical hurdle to any full‑time return.
