To think that Harry and Megan's return to the UK has everything to do with money running out?

That really. I mean it's not like they are loved here whether it comes to family or the public. I think Harry might genuinly want to live in England whereas his wife is looking for the attention and money.

I always find it fascinating when people act as if they know them.

And feel like they have the right to judge.

Why would anyone want to live in a crumbling old house in England when they have a beautiful house in Montecito?

Quine0nline · 20/08/2026 08:22

But wasn't the UK the most racist, ickiest, nasty country ever?

I would 100%

MandemChickenShop · 20/08/2026 08:23

Up to them. And if it is the reason, so what? Doubt they will be tapping you up to lend them a tenner.

x2boys · 20/08/2026 08:24

There is a royal family board for reason ....

KaySam · 20/08/2026 08:24

Or the king is sicker than has been announced.

or he wants to bring his children up near his mothers family.

or he just didn’t like America.

i don’t understand why people are angrier about this than Andrew.

Cantloseyou · 20/08/2026 08:25

Well if they will lose an ill advised court case with almost no evidence, make the world’s most boring lifestyle show which people saw as inauthentic, refuse to get jobs and have two children, what do they expect? They massively overestimated the public’s interest in them as a couple, the only thing people want to hear about is the beef with their families.

Yeah, didn't even want to visit a few weeks ago because it was so unsafe 🙄

Thestealer · 20/08/2026 08:26

No one on here knows the reason why they are coming back to the UK. I'm sure plenty of people will have plenty of fun making shit up though.

rubyrued · 20/08/2026 08:26

They are still richer than you so I wouldn’t stress about it.

How wonderful to have this thread then to show the UK isn’t the racist nasty place a lot of people think it is…

Because they can’t afford the house in Montecito. It’ll be sold before long.

I find them fascinating & love talking about them. Don’t you remember this with Harry’s mother? People enjoy celeb gossip to the point of tragedy. I’m ashamed to say I keep reading.

Meghan loves to shock. First by dating Harry, then becoming a “princess”. Followed by Megxit & Oprah. Now this. It’s another power move. Maybe even an exit strategy for her…

Araminta1004 · 20/08/2026 08:29

No, I reckon they want a British education for their kids so they become properly British and are shaped in their heritage. And to mark their territory. And maybe to get away from US politics.

LBFseBrom · 20/08/2026 08:30

No.

user293948849167 · 20/08/2026 08:30

I’m sure their families still love them! Harry will never be a working royal again but would be nice for him to build bridges with family right? For his children to get to know their heritage on their Dad’s side?

Hope they just live here quietly like a lot of the other minor royals manage to… I fear that’s too much to hope for though!

Maybe because they can't afford the "beautiful house in Montecito"!

Obviously didnt think they would get enough attention there but I do wish MN would move this crap to the royal board

CrispyK · 20/08/2026 08:32

How would you or anyone else know?
Leave them alone for goodness sake.

Thestealer · 20/08/2026 08:33

If this was on the Royal board anyone not toeing the H & M are evil party line would get chased off by the regular obsessives.
