Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's possible 'new UK home towns revealed'

The Sussexes are moving back to the UK and have already found their new home.

Two locations where Prince Harry and Meghan Markle might be moving to have been revealed by a royal expert. The couple will return to the UK later this month – making their home in a non-royal residence outside of London – and have already enrolled Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet in British schools.

The move is expected to happen within the next ten days in order to allow the children to start school in time for the new term. It is believed that the Cotswolds and the Northampton area, close to the Spencer family estate, could be where the family will set up their UK home, the BBC reports.

The family visited the Spencer family estate during their recent UK visit, spending time in the Grade I-listed Althorp House which was the childhood home of Harry's mother, Princess Diana.

The 13,000-acre estate in Northamptonshire, around six miles from Northampton, has been the family’s ancestral home since 1508.

Royal reporter Tom Sykes believes that the Cotswolds could be the couple's most likely destination due to the duke's longstanding affinity with the area.
He said on his The Royalist YouTube channel: "Harry is very interested in the Cotswolds- it's obviously where he grew up.
"He knows the roads around there, he knows the back roads very importantly, he knows the pubs, and he has a lot of friends in the area still."

He also believes that the area could be one of the few in the country that would also appeal to Meghan due to the number of high net-worth Americans.

He added: "It's also probably about the only place in the United Kingdom outside of London where Meghan might be able to friend some high-end, or high net worth Americans- because as we know, Meghan didn't like the English very much, did she?

"She didn't like her experience in England; she found that people were snobby, rude, racist, and that they didn't get her."

Meghan was able to travel to the UK in July with Archie and Lilibet to join Harry when he came to the end of a week-long series of events promoting the Invictus Games.

During the visit, the duke and duchess took their children to see the King for the first time in four years at his Highgrove home, but are not thought to have raised the prospect of a return to the UK at that meeting.

However, the visit itself, which allowed the children to meet their aunts, uncles and cousins was "significant", according to the BBC's Senior Royal correspondent Daniela Relph.

She wrote: "As well as spending time with the King at Highgrove, Harry, Meghan and their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet are said to have loved being with the family of Harry's mother, Diana, Princess of Wales.

"The visit to Europe, which included time in Portugal, where they have a home, was described to me as "such a great time" for the family. It turned a possible move back to the UK into a firm decision."
