LONDON, Aug 26 (Reuters) – Prince Harry and his family were due to arrive back in ​Britain on Wednesday, the ‌BBC reported, days after it was revealed the couple were moving back six years after quitting royal duties ‌and ​relocating to the United ⁠States.

Last week, Harry ⁠and Meghan, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, surprised even their close family when it ​was disclosed that they would relocate from California to somewhere ⁠outside London for ⁠what was described as ​an extended period of time.

Their children, ​Prince Archie, 7, and Princess Lilibet, ‌5, will start school in Britain in September. Precise details have not been disclosed about ⁠where they will live, other than it will not be a royal residence, ⁠nor ‌the school the children ⁠will attend.

The BBC said ​it ‌understood they would be flying ​in from ⁠California privately on Wednesday. There was no immediate comment from Harry’s spokesperson.
