What’s really behind Harry and Meghan’s shock move back to the UK? | The Daily T Podcast

In Thursday’s episode of The Daily T, Tim Stanley and Poppy Coburn discuss the global reaction to The Telegraph’s exclusive story on the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s planned move to the UK with Hannah Furness, the Royal Editor.

Amid speculation behind the couple’s motive, they discuss what their imminent arrival will mean for the logistics of their private security, their status within the Royal family and the chances of reconciliation with the Prince and Princess of Wales.

Tim and Poppy also speak to Dai Davies, the former head of the Royal Protection Command, who says it “beggars belief” that the Duke and Duchess are returning to the UK, in light of their recent battle with the Home Office for taxpayer-funded security while in the country.
