Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are planning to move to a luxury location in Europe, according to a royal insider.

It seems as though the American dream wasn't everything they had hoped it to be, as it is rumoured that Meghan and Harry are moving out of the US.

King Charles' former personal butler, Grant Harrold, has revealed that the royal couple have had enough of American life, and are 'edging' closer back to the UK.

Speaking to The Post, he said: "Their life in the US — there’s so many people that move away and move back, so I don’t think there’d be anything unusual about Harry and Meghan leaving the US for Europe.

"Maybe living in the States wasn’t what they thought it would be and that could be why they’re now supposedly edging their way back in the direction of the UK."

But where exactly in Europe are they heading to?

Well, reports claim that the pair have splurged on a $4.7 million purchase, to live in one of 300 soon-to-be-constructed residences at the 722-acre CostaTerra Golf and Ocean Club.

The property is located south of Lisbon, in Portugal.

While it's unclear why the couple have opted for Portugal, it could be a sign that they are putting out an olive branch to reconcile with the royal family.

On a less important note, the weather in Portugal is quite similar to that of California, and that's something you wouldn't want to miss out on.

The insider added: "There’s no obvious reason for choosing Portugal as a location to live, but let’s not forget that it’s not unusual for royals to set up overseas.

"Some have historically moved to France, Princess Margaret used to spend a lot of time in Mauritius, so Harry would be following in the footsteps of other royals who have done something similar."

He also claimed that the pair will be able to manage their friendships despite not being in America.

Harold said: "The friendships they have I’m sure they will keep, as it is for anyone who moves abroad, friends will come and visit.

"I don’t think it will be the end of their celebrity friendships at all."

One of the biggest hurdles that the pair will have to overcome prior to the move, is gaining European Union citizenship.
