Prince Harry 'asks friend' about moving back to the UK in major hint about Sussexes future

Prince Harry recently quizzed a famous singer and friend about her move from America back to Britain, fuelling rumours about sending his children to school in the UK. the Duke of Sussex, 41, approached singer, Joss Stone, 38, about "schools" and "community" at the WellChild Awards in London.

Harry and the singer were attending the charity event at the Royal Lancaster Hotel in London on the first night of Harry's arrival in the UK. Ms Stone said Harry seemed "genuinely interested" in her return home.

Speaking to Hello! Magazine, she said: "He asked about how we were settling back in and was genuinely interested in our move home. Maybe Harry will move back too. He was saying how wonderful the schools are here and how important community is for children."

The singer, who had UK hits with Super Duper Love and Right to be Wrong added: "It was nice to share that with him because it's exactly why we felt drawn to come back... for the kids to grow up surrounded by family."

She also added that it was "really sweet" to see her old friend "after all these years" at the event.

The songwriter recently made the transition across the Pond after living in Nashville, Tennessee, with her family. Stone, who attended Harry's wedding to Meghan Markle in 2018, shares four children with her American husband Cody DaLuz.

The pair met for the first time at a Prince's Trust event in 2005 and she later became an ambassador for Harry's charity, Sentebale.

Ms Stone also added: "It was nice to share that with him because it's exactly why we felt drawn to come back- for the kids to grow up surrounded by family, friends, and a strong sense of belonging and most importantly in a safe environment."

When Prince Harry and Meghan Markle left the UK, they filmed the move to California and Harry called it his "freedom flight". Harry and Meghan departed the UK in 2020 when they quit royal duties.

During Harry's most recent visit to the UK this month, he saw his father, King Charles for the first time in 19 months. The meeting, a "private tea" between the two, lasted 55 minutes.
