Prince Harry and Meghan Plan Extended UK Visit This Fall
Prince Harry and Meghan are planning an extended return to the United Kingdom with their children this fall, though they will not be resuming their royal duties.
Fort Myers Naples, FL, August 20, 2026 —
Prince Harry and Meghan, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, are reportedly planning an extended visit to the United Kingdom with their two children, Archie and Lilibet, this autumn. The couple, who relocated to California in 2020, are expected to spend a significant amount of time in the UK during this upcoming trip.
Despite the planned extended stay, sources close to the couple indicate that they will not be resuming any official royal duties. Their return to the UK will be a personal visit, rather than a professional engagement with the Royal Family.
The specific dates for the visit have not been publicly disclosed, nor have details regarding their accommodations or planned activities during their time in Britain. It is understood that the visit will involve their children, marking a potential return to the UK for Archie and Lilibet as well.
Since stepping back from their roles as senior members of the Royal Family, Prince Harry and Meghan have pursued various independent ventures. This upcoming visit comes after a period of significant change for the couple, who have established a new life in Montecito, California, focusing on their foundation, Archewell, and various media projects.
The nature of their engagement with the Royal Family during this visit remains a topic of speculation, with Buckingham Palace not having issued any official statements regarding the plans. The focus, however, remains on a private family visit rather than a return to public royal service.
