Prince Harry and Meghan leaving US for Britain after six-year royal feud

Published August 19, 2026 10:41pm ET



Prince Harry and his wife are moving back to Great Britain over six years after they left the country following a public break with the royal family.

The relationship unraveled after Harry married Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, in 2018. At the time, Meghan was an American actress known in Hollywood for roles in Suits, among others. After the couple aired grievances against relatives and decided to opt out of royal duties, they were stripped of their royal titles several years ago and moved to the United States in 2020.
