While posts in Canada and Australia have also been considered, it is understood that a country in Africa is the front-runner for a period of sustained, long-term work
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are considering a move to work in Africa after the birth of their first child, as Prince Harry and his older brother map out their separate working lives.
The move will be viewed as a symptom of the recent formal split in the young royal household of Kensington Palace, with Princes William and Harry working in increasingly different ways amid rumours of a rift. A spokesman for the Sussexes said: “Any future plans for the Duke and Duchess are speculative at this stage. No decisions have been taken about future roles. The Duke will continue to fulfill his role as Commonwealth Youth Ambassador.”
Such a position would be designed to “harness” the star-power of the couple while keeping them within the fold of the Royal family, it is claimed. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have long been expected to focus their working lives on the wider Commonwealth, after making clear their support for its young people around the world.
He and his future wife spent time in Botswana while they were dating, with Prince Harry introducing her to elephant conservation work in 2017. Aides will also need to navigate both significant security issues and the shadow of colonialism, requiring a role that could not be open to accusations of a visiting Duke and Duchess patronising Commonwealth citizens.
