Prince Harry seems quite happy to be back in his homeland in the last few weeks.

The Duke of Sussex, who was earlier living in California, seems elated as he is back for his charity work in the UK.

Royal expert Jennie Bond told the Mirror : “Harry‘s own take on his first few weeks is that they have been ‘eventful’. And they certainly have. We know that they were ‘a little surprised’ by the directive sent out from the Palace about their status as private citizens. I think for ‘surprised’, we could read ‘angry’.

“And the problems over the school run must have been disappointing and unsettling for the whole family. However, to be fair, Harry and Meghan seem to have been getting on with their lives relatively quietly and Harry has looked extremely happy and relaxed at his charity events.”

Jennie continued: “He seems quite open about how pleased he is to be back in the UK. I must admit I thought he was content in the Californian sunshine, but there’s clearly a lot about home that he was missing – maybe even the weather.”
