Prince Harry<\/strong> and wife Meghan Markle<\/strong> may have an opportunity to be closer to the royal family.<\/p>\n According to a Sunday, March 1, post on journalist Rob Shuter\u2019s Naughty But Nice<\/a> Substack, King Charles III<\/strong> is thinking about offering Royal Lodge to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, now that Andrew Mountbatten Windsor<\/strong> and Sarah \u201cFergie\u201d Ferguson<\/strong> have officially moved out.<\/p>\n \u201cThis would be the ultimate olive branch<\/a>,\u201d a royal insider told Shuter. \u201cCharles wants unity. Offering Harry a significant Windsor property would send a powerful message that the door is still open.\u201d<\/p>\n While Harry, 41, and Meghan, 44, have not publicly expressed an interest in leaving their permanent home in California<\/a>, the 77-year-old king \u2014 who was diagnosed with an undisclosed form of cancer in 2024 \u2014 is thinking about \u201ckeeping family close \u2014 geographically and emotionally,\u201d a source said.<\/p>\n The 30-room mansion is vacant now that the former Prince Andrew, 66, was relocated to the Sandringham Estate in Norfolk amid renewed scrutiny<\/a> in his ties to late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein<\/strong>.<\/p>\n That said, a source told Shuter, \u201cThe optics are tricky. Moving Harry and Meghan into Andrew\u2019s old house ties them to a property that\u2019s become synonymous with scandal<\/a>. That\u2019s a lot of baggage.\u201d<\/p>\n
