ANALYSIS: How Harry and Meghan can prove American move was not a failure as they head back to UK

So how is this going to work? Six years after “Megxit”, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are returning to the UK .

They’ll live outside London. Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet will go to school in England. And apparently, Harry won’t be a working Royal.

The late Queen Elizabeth’s ruling that you can’t be half-in/half-out when it comes to Royal duties as the one-time “spare to the throne” still stands.

Meghan will continue her jam brand As Ever, but will that be enough to pay the school fees, and cover the security costs?

And will Archie and Lilibet now be able to forge a strong relationship with their cousins — George, Charlotte and Louis in particular?

After successfully slimming down the monarchy, how will the Palace handle the return of a Duke and Duchess they’ve been in a PR war with for half a decade?

British politics is even more toxic. Communities are more divided. The world of social media commentary they have railed against is more prevalent than ever. Angry voices are loud in the British media landscape.

But we know — when Harry is out and about — he is so good at being “royal”.

During the Duke’s July visit to England , which was dominated by preparations for the Invictus Games in Birmingham and charity engagements close to his heart, the Prince rarely hid his smile.

Laughing and joyously playing with the children of slain soldiers, we were reminded that Harry’s presence can really mean something.

Indeed, at the height of their powers in the UK — in the months between their 2017 engagement and 2018 wedding — Meghan had all the makings of the Duchess the royals need.

A biracial outsider, she managed to connect with communities across the UK — and indeed the world — in a way few other royals can.

Elements of the British press see their impending return as a sign of failure, their American dream shattered after multimillion-dollar deals with Spotify and Netflix dried up.

Engage with the communities they shunned in January 2020 when they left.
