Given his desire to live in England, some Royal observers think that Harry might use this as an opportunity to patch things up with his family. However, PR specialist Kyrie Ron Elby offers an alternative viewpoint.
Elby believes that Harry and Meghan are deliberately avoiding buying a property in order to keep their distance from the royal family. He sees it as a calculated chess move that emphasises the fine line between individual freedom and ties to the royal institution.
The ongoing rift within the Royal Family appears to be deepening with this recent development, adding fuel to the fire of their feud. Another PR expert, Magowski, proposes that this move, or even just the speculation surrounding it, serves the purpose of keeping Harry and Meghan relevant in the public eye and combating persistent rumors.
This speculation extends beyond property and delves into family dynamics. Will Harry use his geographic proximity to his estranged father and brother to mend fences? Some believe this is a possibility, especially since his children, Archie and Lilibet, are quite distant from their extended family.
However, royal expert Richard Fitz Williams pours cold water on any hopes of Meghan returning to the UK. He deems it unlikely, and the same applies to Archie and Lilibet. Harry, on the other hand, seems to face limitations, with serious security concerns and an ongoing lawsuit against the home office, suggesting that he is not prepared to call Britain home.
Even the King's request for Harry to stay at Windsor Castle was declined, indicating that the door to the UK for the Sussexes is gradually closing.
