Security will be 'deciding factor' in Meghan Markle's return to the UK

They were originally attending a series of charity events in the UK, when the Queen died, they extended thier stay to attend the funeral.

Harry will host his 2027 Invictus Games in Birmingham, with one-year-to-go celebrations set to take place this year.

The security review currently underway will play a pivotal role in whether Meghan and thier two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, will join the duke in his homeland.

A source close to the duchess revealed: “Security is always going to be a deciding factor in this.”

Meghan joined Harry during the celebrations of one year to go in Vancouver in September 2024, and she was also present for the same event in Düsseldorf in 2022.

No decision has been made on whether the duchess will attend the event in Birmingham, and a representative had no comment when approached.

Harry will return to the UK in the coming weeks as he prepares for his High Court legal case against Associated Newspapers Limited.

The Duke of Sussex, alongside six other prominent figures, is pursuing legal action against the publisher of the Mail over claims of unlawful information gathering spanning three decades.

ANL, which also operates the Mail on Sunday and MailOnline, firmly rejects all accusations of wrongdoing.

The full trial is anticipated to commence at London's High Court later this month, with preliminary hearings already underway to address procedural matters.

This lawsuit, initiated in 2022, represents one of multiple legal actions the duke has brought against media organisations since 2019, alleging privacy violations, unlawful practices, and inaccurate reporting.

The alleged misconduct is said to have occurred between 1993 and 2011.

The trial is expected to run for nine weeks, with costs projected to exceed £38million.

Joining Harry in the legal action are Sir Elton John, his husband David Furnish, actress Liz Hurley, Baroness Lawrence, Sadie Frost, and Sir Simon Hughes.

The group's barrister, David Sherborne, has requested that all claimants be present when proceedings commence as a demonstration of unity.

The claimants allege that Associated Newspapers Limited employed private investigators to install listening devices in vehicles, obtain private records through deception, and gain access to confidential telephone conversations.

The publisher has firmly rejected these claims, dismissing the accusations as "lurid" and "simply preposterous."
