Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are keeping quiet about their latest plans as the couple reportedly prepares for a major change, a royal commentator revealed to GB News.

Recent reports from October suggested that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have purchased a holiday home in Portugal, possibly as a way to strengthen their ties with Britain.

Prince Harry, 40, has previously stated he would “never” bring Meghan back to Britain due to concerns about her safety.

Nevertheless, acquiring a home in Europe could offer their children, Prince Archie, five, and Princess Lilibet, three, the chance to spend more time near their paternal relatives.

The Sussexes aren’t the only royals with ties to Portugal. Harry’s cousin, Princess Eugenie, and her husband, Jack Brooksbank, own a home in the exclusive CostaTerra Golf and Ocean Club.

Located along the coast in Melides, south of Lisbon, this luxury project has 300 luxury homes.

Brooksbank, 38, works in marketing and sales for CostaTerra, while Princess Eugenie, 34, balances life between Portugal and London with their two sons, August, three, and Ernest, 17 months, due to her husband’s job.

Although reports emerged that Harry and Meghan had purchased a Portuguese property, their representatives did not respond to queries from GB News.

Royal commentator Gareth Russell gave GB News his view on why the Sussexes may be keeping quiet about their rumored retreat to Portugal.

He said: “Portugal may be something they want to keep more private because they have been cagey about it in the first place.

“While the purchase of Montecito was fairly public. But who knows?

Whether they go private or public with the new Portuguese residency, it will be a good indication of where they go in terms of how public or private they will go further, and whether it will be a change to what we have going forward seen. past.”

A spokesperson for the Sussexes confirmed in January last year that the king had asked them to give up their former British home, Frogmore Cottage.
