(LONDON) Prince Harry and Meghan, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, will not return as working members of Britain’s royal family, Buckingham Palace confirmed Friday.
“The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have confirmed to Her Majesty The Queen that they will not be returning as working members of The Royal Family,” the palace said in a statement.
Harry and Meghan shocked the world last January with their announcement that they planned to step down as senior, working royals and spend the majority of their time outside of the United Kingdom.
When their new arrangement with the royal family was announced in January after negotiations between Harry, Queen Elizabeth, Prince Charles and Prince William it was intended to be reviewed in one year’s time.
