Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are said to help King Charles with Royal duties.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, who left the royal family back in 2020 only to return six years after their exit, will help to be half in half out Royals.

A source told the Sunday Times that the couple is to be “private royals-plus” and help working Royals with their duties.

Speaking about the sudden change of plans of the Sussexes, expert Sarah Vine tells Daily Mail the couple wants to reclaim Royal fame.

She said: "Harry and Meghan's currency is that they're members of the Royal Family. Yes, they're rebellious members of the Royal Family. Yes, they're disruptors. They like to class themselves that. But nevertheless, it's their royal value that's of interest to people."

"And, you know, it's a land grab because I think that one of Harry's big concerns is that he kind of run out of road in America. There was sort of no more options for him,” she noted.

Prince Harry left the Royal Family back in 2020 alongside wife Meghan Markle and son, Prince Archie. The couple later accused the Royal Family of showcasing racism towards their son and publicly shared their grievances on television. Harry and Meghan now live in California, where they also welcomed their daughter, Princess Lilibet.
