We’re Really Happy”: Meghan Markle on Life with Prince Harry After Royal Exit

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have come a long way since leaving the royal family. With businesses, two children, and a new life in California, Meghan says the two are “really happy.”

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle don’t seem too worried about their relationship with the royal family. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have been living separate lives from the royals since they stepped back from their working roles in 2020. Since then, they’ve started multiple businesses, welcomed a second child, and continued their philanthropic work around the world.

Harry and Meghan recently returned from a quick trip to Nigeria to discuss the Invictus Games and mental health, and Meghan said the two are “really happy”, via Page Six.

Harry and Meghan made headlines back in 2020 when they announced they were leaving the royal family. The two settled down in Montecito, California, where they are now raising their two children: Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet. Harry and Meghan have launched several ventures, including their charitable foundation Archewell and their production company. Harry also continues to focus on his Invictus Games Foundation, hosting events around the world.

Harry and Meghan recently spent several days touring Nigeria, the first African country to join the Invictus Games. During the trip, Meghan gave some insight into the couple’s post-royal life.

“We’re just doing great,” Meghan told People. “And happy to be watching our family grow up and evolve.” She continued, “Of course, I’m happy. We’re really happy.”

Harry also expressed his satisfaction with the progress of the Invictus Games, especially with Nigeria’s inclusion. “You know what Africa means to me over the years. It is a very, very special place, and to be able to include Nigeria now [in Invictus], I’m very happy.”

While Harry expressed his love for his family back in February, stating he is “grateful” for them, it seems the couple has come to terms with the fact that things will never be the same between them and the rest of the royal family. Meghan did not attend Harry’s Invictus Games ceremony in the United Kingdom in early May, and he did not see his father or brother during his trip.

Although Harry maintains his love for his family, it appears both sides have accepted and moved on from the royal feud, building new futures for themselves. Harry and Meghan continue to build their life in the US, watching their children grow up in California. They both seem fulfilled by their new journey and show no signs of wanting to return to royal duties anytime soon.

As they navigate their new lives, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex remain focused on their projects and family, clearly enjoying their path forward.
