Following the Sussexes\u2019 explosive news that they were returning to the UK earlier this month, Prince Harry has continued to shock and awe \u2014 reportedly revealing what his new title will be as he settles into his new life back home.<\/p>\n

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, along with their two children Prince Archie, 7, and Princes Lilibet, 5, touched down on British soil on Wednesday following a six year stint in California.<\/p>\n

It is understood the children will begin school in Britain in September, with Harry and Meghan reportedly establishing a private, non-royal residence away from Buckingham and Windsor in the Cotswolds.<\/p>\n

While the world continues to ask questions over what spurred on the family\u2019s sudden relocation, one query over what the Duke\u2019s role will be has been uncovered.<\/p>\n

With Meghan Markle set to return to acting, it is understood that her husband will take on a home-centred role and take on the title of \u2018stay-at-home-dad\u2019, as reported by The Times<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe plan now is that he will indeed be the key at-home parent, while Meghan travels back and forth to their home in Montecito, California,\u201d added the Daily Mail\u2019s showbusiness editor Alison Boshoff.<\/p>\n

Appearing on the Joe Marler Will See You Now podcast in July, Harry stipulated his title was \u2018full-time dad\u2019 and \u2018Prince of England\u2019 when he was asked for his occupation.<\/p>\n

\u201cBeing a soccer mom or a full-time stay-at-home dad is a breeze on the west coast of America,\u201d royal journalist Simon Mills wrote of the Prince\u2019s supposed new stay-at-home status.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you are the Duke of Sussex, every day is an easy-going park and ride: saying hi to all the moms at the gate, scowling at the paparazzi, watching out for school shooters, getting shadowed by the sleeve-mic\u2019d security detail, grabbing a skinny latte venti from the drive-through, then getting into a cardio workout with the PT at the home gym.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe question is, will he be able to do all this when he moves back to England\u2026 to the wilds of the Cotswolds? Will Americanised Prince Harry and his LA-raised, GB-disparaging wife fit in?\u201d<\/p>\n

The news has left some royal fans unhappy, with people reacting to the royal\u2019s reported new title online.<\/p>\n

One wrote on X: \u201c\u2019Staying at home dad\u2019? You still have nannies, housekeepers, chefs and gardeners. The kids are at school until mid-afternoon. Watching Archie play rugby once a week does not make you a stay-at-home dad.\u201d<\/p>\n

Another commented: \u201dHe\u2019s never been a stay at home dad. What an insult to actual stay at home dads\u201d, with one person adding: \u201cHaz a stay home dad . . . no f****** way\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Following the Sussexes\u2019 explosive news that they were returning to the UK earlier this month, Prince Harry has…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":876513,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[64,63,134,13935,1720],"class_list":["post-876512","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-entertainment","tag-royals","tag-world"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/876512","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=876512"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/876512\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/876513"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=876512"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=876512"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=876512"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
