Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are reportedly considering a move back to the UK, more than five years after relocating to the US. The couple announced their plans to step down as senior working royals in January 2020, with a move to the US taking place shortly after.
The couple soon settled into life in California with their son Prince Archie, before welcoming their second child in the US in 2021. It has now been reported that Harry and Meghan could look at the Cotswolds as a permanent place to live in the UK.

Celebrities such as Ellen DeGeneres – who is known to be a close friend of Meghan and Harry – and James Corden have taken up residence in the Cotswolds countryside in recent years.
A source told the Daily Mail: “I’d say the Cotswolds would be somewhere they might look if they were thinking about a home outside the royal estate.”
The paper also reported Meghan, 44, would prefer to live among celebrities who have moved to the area.
It has also been reported that, unlike his wife, Harry, 41, may prefer to move into a royal residence due to his security fears.
As reported in the Mail, a source said: “Security is obviously still a big issue for the Sussexes. So stays within the occupied Royal Palaces estate would make sense because then they would be within the security perimeter.”
Whilst in the UK, the couple lived at Frogmore Cottage – with the royal residence being their son’s first home after his birth in 2019.
In June 2023, Prince Harry and Meghan were officially out of Frogmore Cottage. “We can confirm that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have vacated Frogmore Cottage”.
