Prince Harry's UK Return Could Push William and Kate to Work Harder
Harry's UK Return Could Push William and Kate to Work Harder

Prince Harry is reportedly returning to the UK, a move that could have significant implications for the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. The return comes amid claims that Meghan Markle has come back to Britain for acting work on a Guy Ritchie Netflix series, though that role appears uncertain.

Reconciliation Prospects

The positive news that a meeting with the King at Highgrove was not leaked is seen as a step forward for Harry's chances of rejoining the Royal Family. However, William and Kate still appear reluctant to welcome him back.

There is speculation that the couple may not want a reformed and eager-to-work Harry back, as it could pressure them to increase their own royal duties.

Workload Comparison

In the last full 12 months, the King, who is in his late 70s, completed 535 engagements, while Princess Anne undertook 478. In contrast, William carried out just 202 engagements and Kate only 68.

It is suggested that William and Kate need to up their game, and a bit of competition from Harry coming home might provide the necessary motivation.
