Now settled on the American West Coast, the two children of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have never had a real relationship with their cousins. However, William‘s brother would like to visit his nephews and niece in the United Kingdom soon.
Family feud, health crisis … Since their departure to the United States in 2020, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have not been able to visit together with their two children in the UK. If the brother of William has indeed returned to his British lands twice, his American wife has not left California since they moved to Montecito. However, William‘s brother would like to cross the Atlantic with his son Archie and daughter Lilibet, so that they can meet their cousins George, Charlotte and Louis. Despite the tensions, he is keen to maintain ties with his nieces and nephews. “It’s obviously difficult because of the distance, so Prince Harry has kindly arranged a call via Zoom with Prince William so that the cousins can see each other,” said a source close to the British crown to US magazine, this Monday, January 31.
For the time being, a possible visit of Prince Harry and his family in England seems compromised. By leaving the Royal clan, the grandson of Elizabeth II has given up some advantages, including a specific police protection. After the refusal of a first request in January 2020, he launched a new legal procedure in September to recover this protection because he believes he inherited from birth “a risk to his safety for life.” “Prince Harry’s goal is simple: to ensure his safety, and that of his family in the United Kingdom, so that his children can know their country of origin,” the prince’s legal representative said in a statement.
Prince Harry, a caring uncle
Before flying to the United States, Prince Harry had a close relationship with his brother’s three children. A caring uncle, Diana and Charles’ youngest son never failed to give beautiful birthday gifts, including a miniature electric SUV for George, a tricycle for Charlotte and the first edition of A. A. Milne’s Winnie The Pooh to Louis, according to the biography Finding Freedom. “The reason I am now fifth [in the order of succession] is because of my nephew and niece and I could never wish them away. They are the most incredible children ever,” he humorously said in 2017 in an interview with the Daily Mail.
