Meghan Markle & Prince Harry feel ‘immense relief’ that they’ve left the UK & can start a new life, source claims
MEGHAN Markle and Prince Harry are said to feel “immense relief” now they have stepped back as senior royals, a source has claimed.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex announced earlier this year they want to split their time between the UK and North America and become financially independent.
A source told People: “This is what Meghan and Harry have always wanted — to create their own life. It's got to feel like an immense relief to get out of the UK and go down their own path.”
The couple are currently residing in a £11m waterside mansion on Vancouver Island, after their last public engagement at the Commonwealth Service in London on March 9.
Since the move, the duke and duchess have the “freedom to do whatever they want” because the locals “don't bother them”, according to the source.
A source told the Daily Mail: “Meghan has no regrets and the sky’s the limit. She said (she and Harry) feel like a huge weight has been lifted.
“They’ve been spending quality time together as a family. Meghan has been cooking and making homemade baby food for Archie.”
As the couple embark on their new life together, it is thought that they could put up roots in Meghan’s native LA.
A source previously told People: “They love being in Canada, but they are looking at houses in LA too. They'll likely have houses in both places.”
Insiders have claimed the new parents have even eyed up renting Kylie Jenner’s old £5.4million Malibu mansion to 'test-run' the area.
It was previously thought their time could be split equally on each side of the pond, but it is now speculated the couple will predominantly reside on the western side of the Atlantic, with fleeting trips to the UK.
Meghan has previously raved about the warm reception she had when she relocated to Toronto from LA when she landed the role of Rachel Zane in legal drama Suits.
Writing on her now-defunct blog The Tig, the actress said: “The people are so kind, I love the food scene and I really love exploring little nooks around the city with my two dogs.
“I love how much green space there is tucked away. You wouldn't expect that, and it reminds me of LA in a lot of ways.”
However, Meghan also praised California, saying: “I was born and raised in Los Angeles, a California girl who lives by the ethos that most things can be cured with either yoga, the beach or a few avocados.”
A move to LA would mean grandma Doria could spend more time with nine-month-old baby Archie.
It would also be handy for the family trying to become financially independent from the royal family, thanks to being situated near to Silicon Valley and Hollywood.
It is close to Apple headquarters, where Prince Harry had been developing a new series with Oprah Winfrey.
This comes as Meghan and Prince Harry did their last public engagement as royals at the Commonwealth Service in London earlier this month.
We shared how Meghan's best friend Jessica Mulroney spent her 40th birthday ‘in quarantine’ amid coronavirus outbreak.
It has also been reported that Meghan is ‘plotting an acting return this autumn and has held talks with TV and movie agents’.
Meanwhile, Meghan and Harry are reportedly ‘careering from one disaster to another’ with desperate attempts to stay private, claims a royal expert.
