King Charles will allow Harry to be a working royal again, a royal expert has claimed – but there is substantial work to be done before that is possible.
On Wednesday evening, it was revealed that after six years, Harry and Meghan will return to the UK, having stepped down as working royals in 2020.
They are expected to make the move later this month as their children Archie, seven, and Lilibet, five, are enrolled in UK schools in September.
The Express understands that the move to the UK marks the first step toward reconciliation with the Royal Family following the intense fallout since the Sussexes’ departure from their royal duties.
Since leaving the UK in 2020, the couple have given a series of interviews, Harry has released his tell-all memoir ‘Spare’ and they starred in their own Netflix show about their lives.
But Harry’s return to the UK is understood to be part of a bid to rebuild his relationship with his father, and it is believed they will put these interviews behind them.

The King is thought to be pleased that his youngest son is coming home and is looking forward to spending more time with him and his family. However, there has been no suggestion, until now, that the status of the Duke and Duchess, or their roles as non-working royals, will change.
Royal expert Robert Jobson told the Express: “Long term, Harry wants to be back in the fold. That’s the only way he can really secure the money and the security that comes with being part of the Royal Family.
“Harry knows he can come back, put on his uniform, make some money and also use that as an angle to get back into the Royal Family.
“He knows his father is ill and that he has limited time, so he knows he has to act now. It won’t be allowed under William, so he has to act now.”
And, it’s not just Harry who wants reconciliation, according to the award-winning author.

He added: “Harry is fifth in line to the throne, and his son and daughter are sixth and seventh.
“The King will be looking at this and thinking that he doesn’t want his reign to be defined by division. He wants a strong, unified Royal Family.
“The reality is that there is a fractured relationship. But William would have to accept the King’s orders to fix it.
“The future of the monarchy relies on that relationship being rebuilt. But there will need to be an apology first, and it will have to be public.”
The Express has contacted Buckingham Palace and representatives of Prince Harry for comment.
