Prince Harry, Meghan Markle and their children have officially landed in the UK - but what do our royal experts say is the 'one real motivation' behind their move?Rebecca English, the Daily Mail's Royal Editor, shuts down the notion that Prince William should be the 'bigger man' by extending a hand of friendship to the Sussexes. She also reiterates that the King did not know about his son's return until the Sunday before the announcement. Meanwhile Alison Boshoff, the newspaper's Editor-at-Large, believes both Charles and William knew about the move months in advance. So who is telling the truth? Or does the truth lie somewhere in between?Also on today's show is Ailsa Anderson, former press secretary to the late Queen Elizabeth II. From her experience as a royal communications expert, Ailsa reveals why there has been a 'deafening silence' from William and Catherine on 'Reverse Megxit' - and why it is unlikely a statement will be issued at all.PLUS find out why our experts are 'baffled' by a decision that may have already compromised Harry and Meghan's UK security.AND details about King Charles and Queen Camilla's upcoming tour to the Caribbean!READ MORE: Some in royal circles who have dealt with the Sussexes tell me they fear 'there is more to this than we know', writes REBECCA ENGLISH - https://bit.ly/4zW62HgREAD MORE: Blindsided Charles only found out about Harry and Meghan's return on Sunday and it wasn't discussed when King met his son six weeks ago - https://bit.ly/4xzLhzeREAD MORE: ALISON BOSHOFF: Can Harry and Meghan afford their new life in Britain? - https://bit.ly/4ca4RttREAD MORE: What the Sussexes' new life in Britain will really look like: It's Harry's dream...
