Meghan Markle sources are sharing their two cents about the Royals return to the UK.

Duchess of Sussex, who was briefly approached by Guy Ritchie for a new acting role, did not move to the UK for the sole reason.

A source close to the mother-of-two has revealed there were greater reasons for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle‘s ultimate return to England.

They told Sky News: “You don't uproot your family for one role in a show. There's no chance the reason they're coming back is TV roles like The Gentlemen.

Meanwhile, expert Alison Boshoff told Daily Mail: "I'm told that is the plan is to go back to Montecito in the school holidays, first one coming up is Christmas.”

"I think it's really wise and sensible," she added. "I think from what I'm told there is not a desire to be provocative."

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.
