"Though currently, I may live in the United States, Britain is, and always will be, the country I proudly served and fought for," the Spare author wrote. "The banter of the mess, the clubhouse, the pub, the stands, ridiculous as it sounds, these are the things that make us British. I make no apology for it. I love it." _ Prince Harry, who's a military veteran himself, emphasized the selflessness of soldiers who choose to protect England. "Every November, the world, for a moment, grows quieter. We pause, together, to remember. Remembrance has never been about glorifying war. It's about recognizing its cost, the lives changed forever and the lessons paid for, through unimaginable sacrifice," he wrote. "It's also about honoring those who, knowing that cost, still choose to serve." _ Prince Harry's essay was met with snide remarks from royal watchers. One person called out the apparent hypocrisy of the Duke of Sussex gushing about the U.K. while choosing to live in the U.S., commenting on People's article that the essay is "like a politician speaking at a public school event talking about 'I believe very much in the public school system even though my kids are currently in private school.'" The critic added, "You have to walk the walk, not just talk the talk." Another critic commented, "Imposter behavior. He won't even bring his family to Britain because of how awful [and] unsafe he thinks it is. That's not British Pride at all." _ In 2020, Prince Harry moved to California with his wife, Meghan Markle. Despite having lived in America for five years, the father of two isn't laying down permanent roots. "Am I going to become a U.S. citizen? There are no plans to be, at this point," he revealed during an appearance on Hasan Minhaj's podcast. _ Prince Harry recently visited England for several charity engagements and to see King Charles III. Although the 41-year-old has publicly expressed security concerns while in the U.K., royalist Richard Eden claims the Duke of Sussex wants his kids to attend a private school in his home country - just like their cousins Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis. "I can tell you that Harry wants to educate the children here in the U.K. Harry feels his children are missing out on the extensive family network that [his] niece and nephews are enjoying," he claimed.
