Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are bringing their children up in sunny California but an expert has predicted that the Duke of Sussex could be keen for Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet to experience the type of education that he is familiar with.
According to former royal butler Grant Harrold, Harry, 40, is "quite keen" for his children to get a taste of British schooling, reports Express.co.uk.
In an interview with Study Dog, Mr Harrold provided fans with an insight into how Harry and Meghan could soon integrate the UK into Archie and Lilibet's lives.

He stated: "It's very likely and completely possible," Grant explained, when asked if Archie and Lilibet could come to the UK for university or school.
"If they have their younger education in America, I'm sure their father will be quite keen to have a bit of a British education," he continued.
Mr Harrold added: "But then it depends on how the relationship is with the rest of the family when the time comes."
Despite this, Meghan has been open about her own worries around intense media scrutiny that might come with enrolling their children in UK schools.
In her previous bombshell interview with The Cut, she said: "If Archie were in school in the UK, I'd never be able to do school pickup and drop-off without it being a royal photo call with a press pen of 40 people snapping pictures."
She then added, "Sorry. I have a problem with that.
"That doesn't make me obsessed with privacy.
"That makes me a strong and good parent protecting my child."
Harry, who moved to the US in 2020, has previously expressed how much he enjoys raising Archie and Lilibet in America - also citing a reason for his feelings.
Speaking at a summit in New York City in December, Harry said: "I very much enjoy living here and bringing my kids up here.
"It's a part of my life that I never thought I was going to live."
Discussing his reason for enjoying bringing his children up in America, he said: "I feel as though it's the life that my mum wanted for me.
"To be able to do the things I'm able to do with my kids that I undoubtedly wouldn't be able to do in the UK - it's huge.
"That is a fantastic opportunity and I'm hugely grateful for that."

Ozzy Osbourne health issues: The heavy metal icon battled Parkinson's disease, addiction

Ozzy Osbourne may have been a fierce rock 'n' roller, but he was far from invincible. The Grammy-winning singer and Black Sabbath frontman died on Tuesday, July 22, at the age of 76, according to a family statement shared with USA TODAY. Osbourne's death came just weeks after he reunited with Black Sabbath for the heavy metal band's final show in Birmingham, England. Taking the stage at Villa Park in front of 40,000 fans, the July 5 concert was a reprieve from the English singer's harrowing battle with Parkinson's disease, which had rendered him unable to stand or walk without assistance. But for nine songs that included Black Sabbath classics "Paranoid" and "Iron Man," as well as Osbourne standards "Mr. Crowley" and "Crazy Train," the guitars cranked, and the Prince of Darkness reveled in his return to the spotlight. Aside from his struggles with Parkinson's disease, Osbourne also dealt with substance abuse. The outlandish rocker, who later embarked on a solo career, was booted from Black Sabbath in 1979 due to his rampant drug and alcohol addiction. Ozzy Osbourne on 'self-medicating' with yearslong substance abuse Osbourne's battles with addiction have led to infamous moments in music history. He bit the head off a dove during a 1981 meeting with record executives in Los Angeles and the following year chomped the head off a live bat during a show in Des Moines, Iowa. The singer got candid on his tumultuous relationship with addiction in a February 2021 interview with Variety. "I've always been self-medicating because I've never liked the way I felt," Osbourne told the outlet. "I've had great success in my life, but I've never felt great about myself. And so, from a very early age, I used to sniff fumes, all kinds of things, anything to get me out of my head." Osbourne later got serious about his sobriety around 2014 after numerous attempts at recovery dating back to 1984. "I thought I'd be drinking to the day I die," he reflected. "Most of the people that I drank with are dead. And the ones that aren't, that still continue to drink, are going to be dead soon," Osbourne added. "It's not a happy ending. If you want to carry on drinking, my hat goes off to you." Ozzy Osbourne undergoes neck surgery after 2019 fall In April 2019, a representative for Osbourne revealed on social media that he was postponing all tour dates on his farewell No More Tours II concert tour after the singer sustained injuries during a fall at his Los Angeles home. In a January 2020 interview with "Good Morning America," Osbourne detailed the "terribly challenging" year he went through due to his extensive recovery. "I had to have surgery on my neck, which screwed all my nerves in," Osbourne said at the time. "I've got numbness down this arm from the surgery. My legs feel going cold. I don't know if that's Parkinson's or what. … It's a weird feeling." Ozzy Osbourne breaks silence on Parkinson's disease diagnosis In a revealing sit-down interview with "Good Morning America" in January 2020, Osbourne, alongside wife Sharon Osbourne, shared that he'd been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease. Parkinson's is a degenerative syndrome that results in the slow loss of brain circuitry involved in movement, thinking, and behavior. It can cause tremors, stiffness, slowness, and falls, in addition to anxiety, depression, and sleep dysfunction. Though fans knew the singer had suffered from tremors, Osbourne said he didn't find out about his diagnosis until 2019. "I'm not good at secrets. I cannot walk around with it anymore," Osbourne said on the ABC talk show. "I feel better now of owning up to the fact that I have a case of Parkinson's." A month after his "GMA" interview, Osbourne canceled the North American leg of his No More Tours II tour to focus on his recovery, as the singer prepared to travel to Switzerland for treatment. Ozzy Osbourne reveals emphysema battle amid 'worst year of my life' In a November 2020 interview with GQ, Osbourne revealed he had emphysema, a chronic lung condition — often attributed to smoking — that causes shortness of breath, according to Mayo Clinic. "This year has been the worst year of my life!" said Osbourne, who'd revealed his Parkinson's disease diagnosis in January. The singer also voiced his health concerns amid the COVID-19 pandemic: "I've got emphysema, so if I get this virus, I'm f-----."

I said ' Well, get ready cuz ur gonna hear about 5 times today!' Pretty funny ……Rest easy Ozzy!' In 1984, Osbourne was arrested for public intoxication while wearing a St. Louis Blues jersey. The Blues' X account replied to Osbourne's post wearing a Blues sweater from when the team was in the Stanley Cup Final in 2019 after his passing on Tuesday, writing, 'St. Louis loves you, Ozzy. RIP.' Ozzy Osbourne's final show with Black Sabbath in Birmingham, England on July 5, 2025.

We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time. Sharon, Jack, Kelly, Aimee and Louis.' In January 2020, Osbourne announced that he was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease. The rock star returned to the stage one last time earlier this month to perform with Black Sabbath for the band's final concert in Osbourne's hometown of Birmingham.

Life on a 'Crazy Train': A timeline of Ozzy Osbourne's odyssey

There may be no more fitting tribute to the beloved Prince of Darkness, Ozzy Osbourne, than his haunting ballad "Mama, I'm Coming Home," following his death Tuesday morning in Birmingham, England—the city where he was born 76 years ago. His death came just weeks after reuniting with his band Black Sabbath for a final farewell show in England. Born John Michael Osbourne on December 3, 1948, he became one of the most influential rock musicians of the 20th century as both lead singer of Black Sabbath and as a prolific solo artist. In his five decades of making music, he was awarded five Grammys and Black Sabbath was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2006. Ozzy Osbourne through the years Throughout his life, Osbourne was known for crazy antics like eating a live bat on stage, eating a live dove in a meeting with record executives and being jailed for urinating on the Alamo Cenotaph. Osbourne also achieved reality TV star fame with 'The Osbournes,' a show that followed his family and aired on MTV for four seasons beginning in 2002. He also dealt with rampant drug addiction and alcoholism, ultimately achieving sobriety and releasing his penultimate 2020 album: 'Ordinary Man.' He leaves behind Sharon Osbourne, his wife of more than 40 years, as well as daughters Jessica, Aimee and Kelly and sons Elliot, Louis and Jack. The news of his passing may be addressed best by Osbourne himself with these lyrics from the 1980 song 'Goodbye to Romance' from his inaugural solo album 'Blizzard of Ozz': 'I say goodbye to romance, yeah Goodbye to friends, I tell you Goodbye to all the past I guess that we'll meet, we'll meet in the end.'
