Prince Harry has sought advice from his former British aides about plotting a return from the US that could involve a partial reinstatement to the royal fold, sources have revealed.
In what has been described as the initial stage in a strategy to “rehabilitate” him, The Mail on Sunday reported the Duke of Sussex has been seeking help from advisers he had when he was a working royal amid increasing alleged issues with American-based PR firms.
A key aim of the claimed move would be for Harry to repair his relationship with his father – although the sources stressed he and his wife Meghan Markle are not looking to make a permanent return to the UK.
It comes as the King is hosting Sir Keir Starmer at Balmoral for his first official weekend at the royal retreat as prime minister.
Sir Keir and his wife Lady Victoria Starmer are following convention and spending a few days at the Scottish home of Charles and Camilla.
Meanwhile, the duke flew from the US to join the Prince of Wales at the funeral for their mother’s brother-in-law, Lord Robert Fellowes, 82, at St Mary’s Church in Snettisham, Norfolk, on Thursday, The Sun reported.
However, a local resident told the newspaper the brothers sat apart at the back of the church and did not speak to each other.

Harry and Meghan ‘keen’ to do more faux-royal tours

Barney Davis
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are reportedly “keen” to do more unofficial tours after successfully visiting Nigeria and Colombia this year.
Though carried out in their capacity as private citizens, the visits have many of the hallmarks of official royal tours and have been used to promote several charitable causes.
A source told OK! magazine: “Both Meghan and Harry are keen to do more of these tours as that’s what they love doing and what they enjoyed most about royal life.”
Prince Harry’s ‘telling’ decision to not alter Spare
21:30
Barney Davis
A royal expert has speculated that Prince Harry’s decision not to add any new material to Spare is not “an olive branch”.
The book is being released in paperback for the first time on 22 October.
Royal historian Tessa Dunlop told the Mirror: “Those who suggest that this paperback release, with no additional material, is an olive branch, are sadly mistaken.
“New material can be conciliatory; Harry might have taken the lead and opened with a different prologue, fore-fronting his regret about how things turned out, and reiterating his good wishes for Kate and the King.”
The memoir was first released in January 2023, notably before King Charles’s coronation and the royal family’s recent health troubles.

The future direction of the monarchy is on a knife-edge, amid the passing of the late Queen, tense relationships, and a shrinking inner circle bolstered by an unprecedented health crisis.
Less than two years into his tenure as monarch, King Charles III announced his cancer diagnosis, reducing his public duties to recover. The Princess of Wales is also unable to carry out public duties, dealing with her own cancer diagnosis.
The number of working royals has been steadily shrinking since Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, Duke and Duchess of Sussex stepped back in 2020, and Prince Andrew was stripped of his titles and patronages due to US civil action over sexual assault allegations.
In this exclusive event for The Independent, Assistant Editor Vicki Harper and a panel of royal experts will analyse the current state of the shrinking Royal Family, look back at how we got here, and explore the potential next moves for “the firm” to stay relevant.

Camilla named as patron of the Rifleman’s Association

Tara Cobham
The Queen has deepened her association with her father’s beloved regiment by becoming the first patron of the Rifleman’s Association this week.
Camilla is Colonel-in-Chief of The Rifles and is now the figurehead of its association, which enables serving soldiers, veterans and their families to remain part of the regimental family, offering friendship, support and help.
Lieutenant General Tom Copinger-Symes, Colonel Commandant The Rifles, said: “This is a huge privilege for the regiment and highlights Her Majesty’s care, commitment and understanding for the wellbeing of our soldiers and their families.
“We are honoured that she has chosen to offer her patronage to all our Riflemen and their families.” The Queen has personal links to The Rifles through her late father Major Bruce Shand.
Two Battalions of The Rifles form part of the celebrated 7th Infantry Brigade, otherwise known as the Desert Rats, with whom Major Shand served.
Major Shand was awarded the Military Cross in 1940, during the retreat to Dunkirk, and again in 1942 for his efforts in North Africa and was later wounded and taken prisoner while fighting in North Africa.
He died in June 2006 aged 89.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle reportedly wish for Prince Archie, five, and Princess Lilibet, three, to be loved for who they are rather than for their relation to the British monarchy.
The source told US Weekly: “They’ll have those conversations in due time.”
In an update on the two young royals, they added: “They’re so well-mannered.
“Archie is sweet and curious and playful, and Lili is vibrant and happy.”
King hosts Prime Minister and his wife at Balmoral for the weekend
07:55
Tara Cobham
The King is hosting Sir Keir Starmer at Balmoral for his first official weekend at the royal retreat as Prime Minister.
Sir Keir and his wife Lady Victoria Starmer are following convention and spending a few days at the Scottish home of Charles and Camilla.
Last summer, former prime minister Rishi Sunak and his wife spent the weekend at the monarch’s Aberdeenshire home and went to church with the royal couple.
Prime ministers are traditionally invited to stay with the head of state at Balmoral during the summer, and in the past decades Harold Wilson, who is said to have “got on like a house on fire” with Queen Elizabeth II, would join members of the royal family for riverside picnics on the Balmoral estate.
But things were very different with Margaret Thatcher, who reportedly found the traditional September weekend at Balmoral painful.
One observer wrote: “A weekend in the country with aristocrats who enjoy riding, shooting, sports and games is Thatcher’s idea of torture.”
Mrs Thatcher could not abide the charades that she was expected to play after dinner at Balmoral.
During a gathering of six of her premiers, the late Queen once joked about “the party games which some of you have so nobly endured at Balmoral”.
When Parliament is sitting, the King and Prime Minister meet for a weekly audience and the two men sat down for a meeting at Balmoral.
The discussions are likely to have taken place in the castle’s library, which was once Queen Victoria and Prince Albert’s breakfast and lunch room and today is used by the King as his working study where he welcomes dignitaries.

The Princess of Wales does not want any drama within the royal family following her cancer treatment, a royal author has claimed.
Robert Jobson - author of the new biography Catherine, the Princess of Wales - explained how the princess is keen to leave any drama in the past.

Jobson explained how Kate had sorted previous “moments of friction” between King Charles and Prince William.
The royal author added: “After going through treatment like this you don’t want to do drama anymore and I think that is something she has experienced.”

The late Queen Elizabeth II “brutally snubbed” the Duke and Duchess of Sussex ahead of their decision to step down as working royals.
Royal author Obid Scobie explained that during her Christmas broadcast, the Sussexes were notably absent from the family photographs on the monarch’s desk – a move that left them “furious”.
“One didn’t have to look further than the family photos displayed during the Queen’s Speech on Christmas Day,” the author wrote.
“In the Green Drawing Room at Buckingham Palace, where the Queen delivered her address, viewers glimpsed photos of the [Waleses] and their children, Charles and Camilla, Prince Philip, and a black-and-white image of George VI.”

“The qualifications to be her friend are no secret… She typically gravitates towards people that can offer her something, contribute to her personal goals. She also requires trust and privacy.

“Meghan does regret certain statements that she made,” Schofield told Fox News Digital. “They weren’t received in the way that she had expected and several of her comments have backfired.
“She and Prince Harry deeply regret the royal racist controversy,” Schofield added. “Meghan wanted the takeaway from their Oprah interview [in 2021] to be about her mental health. And I think
