### Harry’s UK House Hunting
Following reports that Harry and Meghan were considering a home in the celebrity hotspot the Cotswolds if they returned to the UK from California, sources now reveal the Duke of Sussex has directed his team to look at properties closer to Windsor Castle.
An insider shared, “Harry’s representatives have been discreetly scouting homes within reach of Windsor Great Park – somewhere with easy access to friends, family, and London. He wants a private residence that’s secure, family-friendly, and not tied to royal property.”
“He’s always said he wants his children to know his homeland. The idea of them spending school holidays or even school terms there has never gone away.”

### Meghan Launches ‘Project Thaw’
The source continued, “As for Meghan, although America is home, she’s keen to re-establish links with the royal family. They are carrying out a secret plan called ‘Project Thaw,’ and Meghan still believes they can all fully reconcile.”
As previously reported by RadarOnline.com, insiders say part of “Project Thaw” includes Meghan instructing her team to set up a meeting with Kate Middleton. The hope is that the reunion would soften public opinion of the couple and help pave the way for their return to England.

### William ‘Determined to Block’ Harry and Meghan
However, separate insiders claim William is “determined to block” any such meeting or the Sussexes’ move back to England.
A source explained, “William is determined to block, or at the very least severely hamper, Harry’s move to Windsor.”
“He’s the heir now, carrying the institution. From his perspective, re-admitting Harry in any official or semi-official capacity risks confusion and fresh controversy. He feels burned and doesn’t want to reopen old wounds.”

### Kate Middleton’s Position: Sympathetic but Cautious
While William is strongly opposed to allowing his brother and sister-in-law back into the family fold, Kate Middleton reportedly holds a different view.
“Kate, meanwhile, remains quietly sympathetic but careful not to cross her husband,” the insider said. “She understands Harry’s wish to reconnect with his roots but is equally conscious that supporting him too openly could put her at odds with William.”
The source added, “She’d love peace between the brothers, but she also knows it has to come on William’s timetable. Her instinct is to keep the door ajar without forcing it open – she won’t push, but she’s the one person both men still trust.”
“When it comes to Meghan, though, Kate’s not willing to brush aside the past – she doesn’t want her rejoining the royal fold.”

As the royal family navigates these tensions, all eyes remain on whether Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s ambitions to reconcile will succeed — or be derailed by Prince William and Kate Middleton’s cautious approach.
