Prince Harry says access to British schools was a key reason for his family's return to the UK from California.

Prince Harry has said that the opportunity to enrol his children in British schools was a key reason for his family's move to the Cotswolds from California. Speaking to GQ magazine, the 42-year-old Duke of Sussex highlighted the chances the return presented for his children, seven-year-old Prince Archie and five-year-old Princess Lilibet. Harry said: 'Opportunities for the family. Being able to put the kids in a British school has meant a lot to me. I didn't know how important it was to me.' He clarified he was not criticising American schools but wanted his children to experience life in the UK, where he grew up. His children have now been in school for two weeks.

Harry also addressed his strained relationships with his father and brother, which have attracted public attention since he and Meghan stepped down from their royal roles in 2020. He told GQ: 'With everything else that's going on in the world, the most important thing is to reconcile.' Harry acknowledged that family wounds can be long-lasting, stating that 'scars stick around forever.' However, he urged people to let go of past grievances, noting there is 'enough drama in the world' without perpetuating family conflicts.
