"If they have their younger education in America, I'm sure their father will be quite keen to have a bit of a British education," he continued. Mr Harrold added: "But then it depends on how the relationship is with the rest of the family when the time comes." Despite this, Meghan has been open about her own worries around intense media scrutiny that might come with enrolling their children in UK schools. In her previous bombshell interview with The Cut, she said: "If Archie were in school in the UK, I'd never be able to do school pickup and drop-off without it being a royal photo call with a press pen of 40 people snapping pictures." She then added, "Sorry. I have a problem with that. "That doesn't make me obsessed with privacy. "That makes me a strong and good parent protecting my child." Harry, who moved to the US in 2020, has previously expressed how much he enjoys raising Archie and Lilibet in America - also citing a reason for his feelings. Speaking at a summit in New York City in December, Harry said: "I very much enjoy living here and bringing my kids up here. "It's a part of my life that I never thought I was going to live." Discussing his reason for enjoying bringing his children up in America, he said: "I feel as though it's the life that my mum wanted for me. "To be able to do the things I'm able to do with my kids that I undoubtedly wouldn't be able to do in the UK - it's huge. "That is a fantastic opportunity and I'm hugely grateful for that."

‘It's very likely and it's completely possible': Prince Harry ‘quite keen' for Archie and Lilibet to have a British education
Prince Harry is reportedly "keen" for Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet to return to the United Kingdom to complete at least part of their education. Archie, 6, and Lilibet, 4, live with their parents in a sprawling mansion in California's ritzy Montecito enclave and have not visited the UK since 2022. It is understood Archie has met his grandfather a few times and Lilibet has only met the King on one occasion due to Meghan and Harry's estrangement from the monarchy. Despite the Sussex children's lack of connection to their father's native country, former royal butler Grant Harrold believes Harry is eager for his children to have at least a partial British education. 'It's very likely and it's completely possible because if they have their younger education in America, I'm sure their father will be quite keen to have a bit of a British education,' Mr Harrold told on behalf of Study Dog. 'But then it depends on how the relationship is with the rest of the family when the time comes.' Britain's elite private schools are considered the most prestigious in the world, with members of the royal family traditionally attending Gordonstoun in Scotland. However, both Harry and William attended Eton instead – the same school attended by Princess Diana's father and brother. Speculation that Archie and Lilibet could complete at least part of their studies in the UK comes amid reports of a possible peace summit between Harry and his father. Over the weekend, Harry's new chief communications officer, Meredith Maines, and UK-based PR rep Liam Maguire were photographed meeting with the King's top aide, Communications Secretary Tobyn Andreae, near Clarence House. The meeting, first revealed by The Mail on Sunday, reportedly had "no formal agenda" but there were "things both sides wanted to talk about". Meanwhile, Meghan has reportedly refused to return to the United Kingdom until she receives an apology from the royal family for perceived 'mistreatment' during her brief two years inside the firm.
