Friends of Prince Harry have described plans to gradually reverse "Megxit" following a reconciliation meeting with King Charles and Queen Camilla at Highgrove last week, with the couple's Portuguese holiday home reportedly seen as a potential staging post for an eventual return to Britain. The visit, kept away from cameras and social media under agreed conditions, marked the first time Meghan and their children, Archie and Lilibet, had been in the UK since 2022, and represents a significant step in mending the rift caused by the couple's Netflix series, Harry's memoir Spare, and ongoing legal disputes with the Home Office.

Harry reportedly agreed "in a heartbeat" to strict terms for the tea meeting, including no briefings or photographs, and stuck to them despite reports that Meghan felt "humiliated" by public disputes over the family's security arrangements. Camilla, once branded "dangerous" by Harry, attended this time unlike a brief 2024 meeting, and Harry was said to appear "buoyed" afterwards, later taking part in a charity event in Warwickshire. Sources cited two unspecified key reasons behind the couple's reported reconsideration of their long-term future in America.
