The former Prime Minister departed Downing Street after just 45 days amid market instability
Former Prime Minister Liz Truss has suggested the United States is welcome to retain Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, following speculation that the couple might be considering relocating back to Britain.
Speaking at the Conservative Political Action Conference in America on Thursday, Ms Truss addressed reports that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are experiencing financial pressures in Los Angeles.
“That’s really a matter for the King and the other members of the Royal Family, but as far as I’m concerned, you’re very welcome to keep them in California,” she told NewsNation’s Katie Pavlich Tonight programme.
The relationship between Prince Harry and his brother Prince William remains tense.

Ms Truss, who became the final Prime Minister to have an audience with Queen Elizabeth II before her death, reflected warmly on their encounter in September 2022.
The meeting took place just two days before the monarch passed away at the age of 96, concluding her seven-decade reign.
Despite her failing health, the late Queen insisted on observing proper protocol during their appointment.
“In my last meeting with her, even though she was very ill, she still wanted to stand up and greet me properly and do her duty,” Ms Truss recalled.

The former Conservative leader praised Queen Elizabeth II’s unwavering commitment to her constitutional responsibilities throughout her life.
When asked about the scandal surrounding Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, Ms Truss suggested the late Queen would have handled matters with characteristic dedication to the Crown.
King Charles has removed royal titles and privileges from his younger brother following Mr Mountbatten-Windsor’s connections to convicted sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein.
