Settling In
Looks like the royal kiddos are doing just fine. Prince Harry recently dropped an update on how Archie, 7, and Lilibet, 5, are handling their move back to the U.K. during an interview with CTV News on Sept. 25. The vibe check? “The kids are happy in school,” Harry confirmed.
The School Pivot
Moving countries is definitely a main character moment, but it wasn't without a little drama. After returning to British soil on Aug. 26, the family had to make a last-minute switch, changing the kids' school just two days after the term kicked off. A spokesperson for the family previously told People the move was a practical necessity following a review of their security arrangements. Despite the early-year plot twist, things are currently smooth sailing. Harry noted that after getting settled into their routine, he’s finally had the “chance to really focus” on prepping for the 2027 Invictus Games in Birmingham.
Making Memories
It hasn't been all work, though. Meghan Markle has been leaning into the Cotswolds lifestyle, recently catching up with her friend Kelly McKee Zajfen. Kelly posted some super cute pics on Instagram on Sept. 23 showing the group soaking up the sun in a garden, with shots of Harry and Lilibet hanging out with Kelly’s baby, Jack. It’s giving wholesome energy for sure.
Why it matters
For the Sussexes, this move marks a significant shift as they balance their temporary return to the U.K. with their ongoing commitment to projects like the Invictus Games, all while keeping their family life as low-key as possible.
