The sneaky way that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are keeping one foot in the United Kingdom has been unveiled by a public relations guru.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex stepped down from their senior roles of working royals in early 2020, with the couple then soon deciding to move from Windsor in England to Montecito in California. The Sussexes have since resided in their sprawling mansion with their two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.

Since moving from the UK to the US, the couple have also rebranded themselves, with them sitting down for televised interviews, signing deals with Netflix and Spotify, attending glitzy red carpets and writing books.

The latest news from the Sussexes is the pending hard launch of Meghan's new brand American Riviera Orchard, two upcoming Netflix shows, and how the couple recently hired two new PR officers.

Speaking exclusively to the Mirror, Lynn Carratt from Press Box PR has shared her thoughts on the couple's ongoing rebrand following the announcement of their new PR hires. "The Sussexes will be knocked for whatever they do, they are like Marmite, you either love them or hate them," she began by saying.

She then noted how last week, the couple announced their new PR hires, which she found "interesting". Ms Carratt said: "One of the hires, Charlie Gipson will be the Director of Communications for all UK contacts, which illustrates that the couple wants to maintain their ties with the UK."

Ms Carratt went on: "However, it is worth noting that reported Gipson has no tabloid experience, which could be seen as a risky move given that most of the publicity surrounding the Sussexes is in the tabloids.

"They’ll be hoping he will be able to develop a PR strategy that will help change the public perception of them in the UK."

This comes after it was announced by the Defence Headquarters (DHQ) that the Sussexes are jetting off to visit Nigeria in May, with it also revealed that the couple will meet with Service members and host a variety of cultural activities.
