Prince Harry will consider a “part-time” role in the royal family if asked by King Charles to “help out”, sources have claimed.
However, the Duke of Sussex, who turns 40 this month, will only do so on the condition that his brother Prince William apologises, the Mirror reports.
This comes after it was widely rumoured that Harry misses his old life and is considering a return to the royal fold.
It has now been claimed that Harry has an “amazing” set of new friends in the US and several exciting projects on the horizon, sources told The Telegraph.
Meanwhile, the Prince and Princess of Wales are preparing their children to return to school today after enjoying their summer break at Balmoral.
Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis are all pupils at Lambrook School in Bracknell and will return for the Michaelmas term today (4 September).
As George, 11, approaches the end of his time at prep school, it is understood that he may follow in his father’s footsteps and attend Eton College when he turns 13, as opposed to his mother’s preferred choice of Marlborough College, an insider claimed to the MailOnline.

The Duke of Sussex “astounded” guests with his appearance at his uncle Lord Robert Fellowes’s funeral after he was expected not to attend.
Harry, 39, was said to have kept a distance from his brother Prince William, but he remained “on remarkably good form” on his unexpected visit to the UK.

Prince William ‘pretty anxious’ about Kate returning to work
Following the claim that the Princess of Wales is “excited” to return to duty, an insider has said Prince William is “pretty anxious” at the prospect.
Kate, 42, has attended just two public engagements this year after being diagnosed with an undisclosed type of cancer.

Meghan Markle will only return to UK ‘if she can have Kate’s job’
A royal expert has claimed that the Duchess of Sussex will only return to the UK if she can “take some of the jobs that Catherine has.”
This comes almost four years after she and Prince Harry moved to California after stepping down as working royals, citing a desire for privacy and to live a more independent life.
Royal biographer Angela Levin claimed that the duchess is “jealous” of the Princess of Wales and wants a “big house and lots of money”.
She told GB News: “Meghan is not going to come, except if she could take some of the jobs that Catherine has.
“She once complained that she thought it was shocking that they weren’t paid for each thing that they did. I think it would be a disaster.”
