What people said
He's basically like Nakata from the comedy duo Oriental Radio lolololol (a Japanese celebrity known for leaving the country to "find himself" abroad, only to come back)
Thought the exact same thing
Guess it means these two are on the same level as that guy
Can they even manage living there?
It's a pronunciation difference
Japan: Mē-gan
UK: Meg-an
US: Mee-gaan
Doesn't want to play second fiddle to his brother's family, the future king
But also doesn't want to lose the respect of being treated as a prince and his wife
What a pain these two are
Is that mainly Meghan being like that?
Or was Harry already like that to begin with?
Didn't they step back from the royal family?
No, they kept their titles, but they did step back from royal duties.
My eyes deceived me there (a slip of the eye, misread it)
Lol ("kusa"/grass — Japanese net slang for LOL)
Such a waste of money
Factor in their security costs and they'll probably be broke in just a few years
It's not exactly fair though.
Even elite universities have admission slots reserved for rich families.
Pull a stunt like that and normally you'd get exiled for good
Say what you will, but Charles clearly still dotes on his son
No telling what happens once William takes the throne though
Background and Key Points
Prince Harry lost his automatic UK police protection in 2020 after stepping back as a “working royal,” a decision he has separately challenged in court and lost — the Miyaneya-cited legal costs the thread references stem largely from that fight plus his phone-hacking litigation against British tabloids. He and Meghan relinquished royal duties in 2020’s “Megxit,” moved first to Canada, then settled in Montecito, California, where they built Meghan’s now largely stalled media and lifestyle ventures (the Spotify deal ended, Netflix output has been sparse, and her “As Ever” lifestyle brand has had a rocky start). Crucially, as the thread itself notes, Harry and Meghan retain their titles — Duke and Duchess of Sussex — even though they no longer perform royal functions; “stepping back” was never a legal stripping of rank, just a withdrawal from official duties and funding.
Where the thread actually splits is less about whether the move is welcome and more about who is driving it: one poster (25) explicitly asks whether the dysfunction described lies mainly with Meghan or was “Harry already like that,” and no consensus emerges — reactions range from mockery of Harry’s indecisiveness to grudging sympathy that Charles still supports his son regardless.
What the posts don’t mention, and what many readers may not realize, is that a full-time UK return raises immediate, concrete questions the thread never touches: whether Harry’s security arrangements (the subject of his court case) would need to be resolved before Archie and Lilibet could safely attend school locally, and that no UK outlet has confirmed enrollment at a specific school — this remains a reported intention, not settled fact.
