USA Today • • entertainment
Key Points:
- Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan have accepted King Charles III's invitation to stay at a royal residence during their visit to the UK from July 7 to July 11, mixing royal and private accommodations.
- This will be their first visit to the UK as a couple in four years, accompanied by their two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, who will not make public appearances.
- The couple has not confirmed any meetings with King Charles III or other royal family members during the trip, and details about security arrangements remain unclear due to previous legal disputes over taxpayer-funded protection.
- Since stepping back from royal duties in 2020, Harry and Meghan have lived in California, surrendered their royal patronages, and launched business ventures including Archewell Productions and Meghan's lifestyle brand, As Ever.
- Concerns about family safety and unresolved risk management assessments have been cited as reasons for the couple's delayed return to the UK.
