Meghan Markle could make a return to acting as she is set to arrive in the UK before the end of the month, according to reports.

Sources close to the Duchess of Sussex, formerly known for her role in the US legal drama Suits, have not denied reports that she has been offered an acting role in the country, according to an Australian media outlet which suggested she had been offered a job in an upcoming project.

News broke on Wednesday that Prince Harry and Meghan were returning to the UK after six years across the pond to make their home in a non-royal residence outside London. It is understood the couple have already enrolled their children, Archie and Lilibet, in British schools.

Asked whether the government would pay for their protection on their return to the UK, Andy Burnham said: “It’s a matter for Harry and Meghan and we wish them well in the move that they’re making.”

It comes as Prince Harry will find out on Friday the cost of his failed legal claims against the publisher of the Daily Mail following the case’s dismissal earlier this year.

Recap: What we know about Harry and Meghan's return to the UK

Harry and Meghan are expected to return to the UK before the end of this month.

It is understood they will live outside of London, with reports suggesting they’ve looked to the Cotswolds and Northampton area, and send their children to British schools.

There will be no photographs of the children when they start school and on their birthdays as for working royals, it is understood.

British media organisations have been instructed by the press regulator not to reveal the location of their new family home nor the children’s school.

The King is said to be glad to be able to spend more time with the Sussex family, but remains adamant they will not be working royals, and there is no half-in, half-out option.

Questions remain about how their security will be funded following a protracted legal battle with the Home Office where Harry made the case for them to provide security for Meghan and their children when in the UK.

Meghan could return to acting as she comes to the UK - report

The Duchess of Sussex could make a return to acting after she moves back to the UK, according to reports.

Sources close to the Sussexes have not denied reports that Meghan Markle has been offered an acting role in the country, Australian site news.com.au reported.

The news outlet suggested one of the reasons the couple decided to return to Britain was that the duchess had been offered a job in an upcoming project.

The duchess was formerly an actress, known for her role as Rachel Zane in legal show Suits.

The real reason Harry and Meghan are leaving Hollywood for Britain

Meghan 'begged royal family not to drop Harry's security'

Meghan told Oprah Winfrey in 2021 that she had urged the royal family not to remove Harry’s security.

She said: “I even wrote letters to his family saying, ‘Please, it’s very clear the protection of me or Archie is not a priority, I accept that, that is fine – [but] please keep my husband safe.

“‘I see the death threats, I see the racist propaganda, please keep him safe, please don’t pull his security and announce to the world when he and we are most vulnerable.’

“And they said it’s just not possible.”

Sussexes will have to win over public

The duke and duchess may also have to win over the British public, since they face low approval ratings in royal favourability polls.

Former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond said retaining their other properties appeared to suggest the Sussexes were “testing the water” with the move.

The Sussexes are keeping their homes in Montecito, California; and Portugal, while the duchess will continue to run her lifestyle brand, As Ever, from their new base.

Meghan’s net approval rating in the UK slipped to minus 43 in the second quarter of 2026 in a poll last month, her lowest yet in that system of measurement.

According to YouGov ratings, the Duchess of Sussex was liked by 18 percent and disliked by 61 percent in the three months from April to June, down from the first quarter when she was liked by 26 percent and disliked by 47 percent, a net approval of minus 21.
