Harry and Meghan's Strategic Move to Portugal

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have reportedly purchased a home in Portugal, potentially signifying a strategic move to establish themselves as 'rival royals' in Europe and reconnect with family, particularly Harry's cousin, Princess Eugenie, who also owns a home there. The move could enable Harry to make more frequent trips to the UK, as Portugal is closer than their current base in California, possibly easing tensions with the royal family. Royal expert Richard Eden suggests the purchase might be part of a plan to leverage Portugal's Golden Visa program, facilitating easier travel throughout Europe. Despite King Charles being preoccupied with royal duties, the move might also represent an attempt by Harry and Meghan to maintain connections with their UK heritage for their children. The Sussexes' decision follows their eviction from Frogmore Cottage and reflects a desire to balance their American lifestyle with European roots.
