In a surprising turn of events, the Duke of Sussex may be on the verge of a significant shift in his life.<\/p>\n
According to royal butler Grant Harrold, the Duke is contemplating an extended stay in the UK, possibly even leaving behind his Californian lifestyle.<\/p>\n
This decision comes as Birmingham gears up to host the 2027 Invictus Games, an event that holds special meaning for the Duke, who has been actively involved in supporting injured athletes.<\/p>\n
Earlier this week, the Duke, at 39, expressed his enthusiasm for Birmingham, declaring it as the potential host city for the 2022 Summer Olympics.<\/p>\n
This ambitious statement underscores his commitment to bringing major sporting events back to the UK, and it seems the Duke is eager to be closer to his philanthropic endeavors.<\/p>\n
Harrold noted that the Duke’s recent victory in England has reignited his desire to connect with his roots and the causes he champions.<\/p>\n
During a solo trip back to his hometown in May, the Duke was seen promoting the upcoming Games, further indicating his desire to return to the UK more frequently.<\/p>\n
Harrold shared insights from his conversation with Slingo, revealing that the Duke plans to spend significantly more time in Britain leading up to the event.<\/p>\n
For him, hosting the Games in his homeland is of utmost importance, and he seems to take immense pride in his British heritage.<\/p>\n
The Duke’s connection to the Invictus Games is deeply personal; even his grandmother was a staunch supporter of the initiative.<\/p>\n
This familial bond could play a pivotal role in his potential return to the UK.<\/p>\n
Harrold believes that the Duke\u2019s return is not just a fleeting thought but a genuine possibility, especially considering his stable relationship and family ties in both the US and the UK.<\/p>\n
Since stepping back from royal duties in 2020 and relocating to California with the Duchess of Sussex and their children, the Duke has maintained a complex relationship with the royal family.<\/p>\n
Harrold, who served as a royal butler for seven years, hinted that the royal family would likely support the Duke’s possible return to the UK, despite past tensions.<\/p>\n
In his memoir “Spare,” the Duke did not shy away from airing grievances about his father, King Charles, and brother, Prince William.<\/p>\n
However, there\u2019s speculation that this might pave the way for a royal reunion.<\/p>\n
Royal expert Kinsey Schofield suggested that the announcement of the Invictus Games reflects the Duke’s homesickness and desire to reconnect with his roots.<\/p>\n
Interestingly, there are whispers that the Duke may have timed his announcement to coincide with Prince George’s 11th birthday, potentially overshadowing the young royal’s special day.<\/p>\n
GB News broadcaster Dan Wooten claimed that this was a calculated move by the Duke to draw attention away from the birthday celebrations of Prince William and Princess Catherine’s eldest son.<\/p>\n
As the Duke navigates these familial dynamics, many are left wondering what this means for his future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
