However, spending time in the UK with his wife and children poses a huge problem for Harry as he previously said it was too dangerous for him to bring them to his homeland, as they are not automatically entitled to police protection when in the UK.
And speaking to The Sun, royal biographer Ingrid Seward explained: “There’s the problem of the security which is still not solved, and Harry says he won’t bring his wife and children back here until he feels that he is in a secure position. I do think that Harry and Meghan have a dilemma with their family life, because the children are getting older, and the children are probably absolutely intrigued to know what their cousins are like. They wouldn’t remember them.
“And I think that maybe an invitation from Charles Spencer might be attractive, and they would meet other cousins. But then it’s going to raise a lot of questions. Is Harry going to see his father? Is he going to see any other members of his family? So I would think at the moment they’re undecided. They seem to make a lot of fairly last-minute decisions in their lives.”
It has previously been reported that unless Harry can overturn a ruling by the Home Office that he is not immediately entitled to police protection when in the UK – he does not feel he can bring Meghan, Archie and Lilibet to his homeland.
