Prince Harry, Meghan Markle sending children to ritzy $35K-a-year prep school
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s two children will attend a posh UK prep school with a hefty tuition fee.
Prince Archie, 7, and Princess Lilibet, 5, will be students at a private school that costs more than $35,000 a year, Page Six can exclusively reveal.
The ritzy institution features several state-of-the-art amenities like an indoor swimming pool, a fitness center, expansive grass playing fields and multiple AstroTurf sports pitches. It also has river access for boating and kayaking.
Additionally, the campus has art studios, a cooking room, multiple science labs, a large theater and a music and performing arts center featuring practice rooms, classrooms, rehearsal spaces, a recital hall and a beautiful garden.
Pupils also have access to a gourmet dining hall that serves breakfast, lunch, and supper with a variety of intricate dishes including falafel and slow-roasted lamb shoulder.
Page Six has decided not to name the school for privacy reasons.
Page Six has reached out to Markle and Harry’s reps for comment.
Ahead of the kids’ first day of school, parents at a posh school in the UK received a letter warning not to take photos and videos of students.
Archie and Lilibet are reportedly set to begin school this week. Meanwhile, their cousin Prince George, 13, will begin classes in September at Prince William and Harry’s alma mater boarding school, Eton College.
Page Six confirmed earlier this month that Markle and Harry are moving back to the UK for “an extended period” of time after living in California for six years. They resigned from their royal duties in 2020.
Sources told us that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex were returning to England to be closer to King Charles III — who was diagnosed with an undisclosed cancer in 2024 — and so their kids can have relationships with their royal family members.
Page Six exclusively revealed that Harry and Markle were eyeing a home in the Cotswolds: an ultra-elite countryside enclave where Charles and Queen Camilla’s Highgrove House residence is located.
Harry and Markle quietly moved out of their $14 million Montecito mansion last week.
Page Six exclusively reported that the Sussexes dropped a staggering six figures to charter a private jet across the pond for the big move. They landed at Birmingham Airport at lunchtime last Wednesday.
Sources also told Page Six that the As Ever founder, 45, and Harry, 41, enlisted British hedge fund billionaire Ian Wace to help them financially with their relocation. It is not believed that he is funding their entire stay.
The Marshall Wace LLP CEO is worth $1.2 billion.
The couple’s shock return comes amid their estrangement from William, who is said to still be on the outs with his younger brother despite Charles making amends with Harry.
Harry became estranged from his brother and father after he quit royal life and proceeded to slam the royal family in interviews and his memoir, “Spare.“
The royals have yet to make a public appearance since their move to the UK.
