King Charles Arranges Deal for Prince Harry & Meghan Markle's Return, Says ‘Source'
He might make a 'part-time royal' deal, in which the Duke and Duchess of Sussex could take part in select royal duties, while maintaining their commercial freedom. The news came after the aides of the father-son duo recently had a confidential meeting related to a potential reconciliation.
King Charles' deal will help Prince Harry and Meghan Markle navigate royal life on their own terms, says 'source'
King Charles might reportedly decide to bring Prince Harry and Meghan Markle back due to his health issues. In 2024, reports claimed that he had been undergoing cancer treatment. Although he has been performing his royal duties, a significant portion of the workload has become Prince William's responsibility.
Moreover, if something happens to the king, the Prince of Wales is next in line. Thus, Prince Harry's return might be a deal to help with William's growing responsibilities, and 'isn't about feelings,' an aide told Rob Shuter.
'It's about survival,' they added. However, this ruling would go against the late Queen Elizabeth's values. In 2020, she was reportedly against the idea of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's proposal of handling royal duties as well as their commercial projects.
She declared, 'You're either in or out.' This was why the Duke of Sussex and his wife made their exit and settled outside the Palace. An insider mentioned that she might have seen King Charles' decision as a 'betrayal.'
Meanwhile, Shuter quoted another source, who revealed the 76-year-old's intention behind the duke's return. 'He needs their global star power to keep the monarchy relevant,' they said. Thus, he would help Harry and his wife navigate royal life on their own terms.
Earlier, reports stated that Prince William was 'furious' after learning about the secret meeting between his father and his brother's aides. Furthermore, Harry will apparently not see his elder sibling during his upcoming London visit.

Ozzy Osbourne's hometown mourns singer
Fans have gathered at Black Sabbath landmarks in Birmingham following the death of singer Ozzy Osbourne at the age of 76. Osbourne was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in 2019 and played Black Sabbath's farewell gig in his home city earlier this month. Ian Marshall, from Cardiff, came to Birmingham on Tuesday to celebrate his 52nd birthday and was doing the Black Sabbath tour along with his daughter, Erin, and her boyfriend, Tyler. Mr Marshall, who said he had loved Sabbath for probably more than 35 years, said Osbourne had "a life lived". The group had visited a mural of the group and Mr Marshall was having his photo taken there when he heard the news. He said: "He's done everything to excess and he's had the most fantastic life anybody could ever have and I think he's brought so much joy to so many heavy metal fans." Donna Ford and Sue Peters were in a pub, Old Still in Wolverhampton, when they heard the news. They said the pub stopped the karaoke and played Changes, a minute's silence was held and everybody raised a glass. Speaking at the Black Sabbath bench on Broad Street in the city, they said they bought some flowers and brought them down. Birmingham-based Jim Simpson, Black Sabbath's first manager, said Osbourne "was always one of the good guys". He added: "[He was] a really sweet man, a really sweet natured man and always a pleasure to be with." Mr Simpson said the last time he spent time with him was when Osbourne was given his star on Birmingham's Broad Street. "We had tea together in the green room which was in the [International Convention Centre] across the street, just him, me and his two aunties and he was lovely towards them. "It was: 'Auntie, would you like another cup of tea?' "This was not the bat head biting off Ozzy Osbourne that the world knows." Aston Villa FC, whose stadium Osbourne played his final gig in earlier this month, said they were saddened to learn that the "world-renowned rockstar and Villan" had passed away. The club added: "Growing up in Aston, not far from Villa Park, Ozzy always held a special connection to the club and the community he came from." Birmingham Children's Hospital and Charity said Ozzy had "an incredible career and life, but never forgot his Brummie roots". "Our hospital was extremely lucky to have his support over the years and most recently with his iconic final performance, which will leave a lasting legacy for our sick kids." It added the hospital had "lost a friend, Birmingham a son and the world a musical legend". Central BID (Business Improvement District) Birmingham said he was "a true icon and a beloved son of Birmingham". "Ozzy's legacy has touched every corner of the globe, but his heart never left our city. "From his groundbreaking days with Black Sabbath to his solo success, Ozzy helped shape the sound of modern music and carried Birmingham's name with pride throughout his extraordinary career. "Birmingham has lost a legend, but his voice, his spirit, and his story will live on." Lyle Bignon, a night-time economy ambassador based in Birmingham, said: "From Birmingham working class roots to fronting one of the world's biggest bands, creating a whole new genre in the process, Ozzy's place in popular music and culture is forever sealed. "To return to the city with his original bandmates for the final Back To the Beginning show just weeks ago was a coup de grace that few artists will ever match." Pop culture convention Comic Con Midlands, where Osbourne met fans weeks ago, said he was not just a rock star, he "was a piece of Birmingham's soul, and his impact on music, culture, and generations of fans will live on forever". It said: "To have Ozzy with us a couple of weeks ago, here in Birmingham where it all began for him, was an unforgettable honour." Birmingham City University, which posted images on X from June at the Freedom of the City event in recognition of Black Sabbath's connection to Birmingham, said he was a "Brummie legend". The university added "the Prince of Darkness... put our city on the map". Follow BBC Birmingham on BBC Sounds, Facebook, X and Instagram.

Bandmates and fans pay tribute to Ozzy Osbourne
Fans, musicians and former bandmates have paid tribute to Ozzy Osbourne, the frontman of pioneering heavy metal band Black Sabbath, who has died aged 76. Black Sabbath have "lost our brother", says the band's co-founder Tony Iommi, while bassist Terence "Geezer" Butler remembered their final gig and drummer Bill Ward shared a photo of them together. The music icon's death on Tuesday, announced by his family, came just weeks after his band played their farewell gig in his home city of Birmingham. "It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning," his family said. "He was with his family and surrounded by love." Osbourne, known for energetic and controversial live shows, inspired a generation of musicians. US heavy metal band Metallica said "it's impossible to put into words" what Osbourne meant to them. "Hero, icon, pioneer, inspiration, mentor, and, most of all, friend are a few that come to mind," Metallica members Noah Abrams and Ross Halfin wrote on X. American rock band Aerosmith called him "our brother in rock", saying its love "goes out to... the millions around the world who felt his fire". Less than three weeks ago, the self-styled "prince of darkness" performed in Birmingham supported by many of the musicians he had inspired, including Metallica and Guns 'n' Roses. Billy Corgan, lead singer of The Smashing Pumpkins - one of the many bands that performed alongside them - said: "Some of the biggest musical artists in the world travelled from all over the world to be there literally to celebrate the legacy of this band. "It's one of the greatest musical moments of my life," added Corgan, who spoke to BBC Radio 4's The World Tonight. "For him to have been that close to death on July 5 and still get up there and perform like he promised... Wow! That puts him in a category of his own," Sammy Hagar, the lead vocalist of Van Halen who also played at the farewell concert for Osbourne, wrote on Instagram. Others shared fond memories of Osbourne's larger-than-life character. Variety magazine's senior entertainment editor Jem Aswad recalled the first time he met Osbourne, he was "nervous" to meet the prince of darkness. "It was just this sort of really bizarre scene," Aswad told the BBC. Osbourne entered the room near noon in a bathrobe, having "just woken up", wearing loads of jewellery and accessories and "a lot of gold", Aswad said, though adding that Osbourne was "perfectly nice, perfectly friendly". Meanwhile, fans gathered at the Hollywood Walk of Fame in Los Angeles, where they laid flowers on the star dedicated to Osbourne. "Osbourne was more than a rock legend - he was a cultural icon who reshaped music and defied expectations," said Ana Martinez, the venue's producer. Black Sabbath were pioneers in the heavy metal genre of music, writing classic tracks like Paranoid, War Pigs and Iron Man. After leaving the band in 1979 over rising tensions with its other members, Osbourne had a lengthy solo music career releasing more than a dozen albums. His debut single released the next year, Crazy Train, is arguably one of his most famous songs. Osbourne is survived by his wife Sharon and six children, three from each of his two marriages.
