For their explosive Netflix docuseries, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle opened their home to the media. In it, they discussed Meghan’s miscarriage, Harry’s falling out with his brother, and other lighter family moments.
Here is everything you need to know about their family mansion with children Archie and Lilibet, which was featured on the show and which they acquired in June 2020.
Meghan said goodbye to Prince Harry in the documentary as he left for the UK to attend his grandfather Prince Philip’s funeral. Meghan revealed their magnificent home’s traditional yet opulent exterior as she stood at the front door.
Meghan revealed they fell in love with the property right away in an interview with The Cut. Meghan told The Cut, “We did everything we could to get this house. “Because you enter and depart… Joy. then let out a breath. also peace. It’s therapeutic. You are at peace.”
Why Harry and Meghan are so taken with the property is understandable. It has everything the couple could possibly want, and more, including a spa, tennis court, outdoor pool, and even a private playground for their kids Archie and Lilibet to enjoy.
Since moving in, the couple has made several additions to the home, including a grand piano that Tyler Perry gave to them as a housewarming present in their living room and Soho House rose-water candles to scent each space.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s bedroom
The bedroom of Harry and Meghan may not have been shown to the public, but HomeAdvisor has already created a 3D floor plan of the room with digitally rendered interiors. It revealed that the suite for the couple has four distinct spaces: a terrace outside, the bedroom, an en suite bathroom, and a dressing room.
The bathroom has a white tub, a single sink, a shower, and a separate toilet cubicle. The bedroom has a large bed with two matching bedside tables on either side and a chaise longue at the end. On one side of the dressing room is storage, and on the other is a seating area with two chairs next to the window.
The bedroom has double French doors with wooden frames that lead out to a terrace where the Duke and Duchess have two white armchairs, a matching sofa, and two wooden tables.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s home office
On the occasion of her 40th birthday, the Duchess unveiled her magnificent home office in its entirety while announcing a special project.
With a traditional fireplace in full view behind her, Meghan sat at her rustic wooden desk in one of two cream dining room-style chairs, the other covered in a Hermes blanket.
The mother-of-two had a sprawling desk full of other aesthetically pleasing items in complementary muted tones, and she propped her laptop up at eye level on a stack of white books. This is how we wish our home office looked!
I love California is written in large letters on the couple’s artwork. Since Meghan was raised there and her mother Doria Ragland still resides there, it is clear that the US holds a special place in her heart. Princess Diana, Harry’s late mother, was also rumored to have been considering a move to the US.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s living room
During a surprise appearance on America’s Got Talent, the Duchess of Sussex first revealed the couple’s living room. There were several allusions to Meghan and Harry’s lives in the background. A Photographer’s Life; 1990-2005 by Annie Leibovitz, the well-known photographer who has taken pictures of the Queen, Harry’s grandmother, can be seen among a stack of books.
The couple also owns the photography collection Women: National Geographic Image Collection, which “reveals the lives of women from around the globe, accompanied by revelatory new interviews and portraits of contemporary trailblazers including Oprah Winfrey, Jane Goodall, and Christiane Amanpour.”
Meanwhile, it was also claimed that Oprah Winfrey gave them the prints that could be seen on the wall behind Meghan.
Later, after they had placed a celestine crystal on the dresser behind them, Meghan and Harry made another video call from the same location. The stone is said to work “best for pursuing spiritual strength,” “gaining understanding and promoting inner peace,” and “used as a focus point of meditation, prayer, or mindfulness.” Meghan stated that meditation became “the quietude that rocked my world” in her previous lifestyle blog, The Tig.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s garden
The couple made an appearance during the primetime broadcast of TIME 100 in September 2020 from their garden. The royal couple’s grounds, which cover 7.38 acres and are bordered by trees like pine and cypress, were only partially visible in the video. As forget-me-nots were Princess Diana’s favorite flower, it is also believed that Harry planted a number of them in her honor, even though they are not currently visible.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s pool
The pool is undoubtedly one of the highlights of their home, which is available for rent on the Giggster platform for shoots and events. It is depicted in the original photos as being surrounded by sun loungers and sun umbrellas, making it the ideal spot for lounging in the sun.
The home’s exterior, which is decorated with climbing plants and conventional rustic shutters, lives up to its chateau moniker.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s wine cellar
With a whole wine cellar filled with bottles of wine, parties at the Sussexes are sure to be a hit! It is very ornate and grand thanks to the stone walls and conventional wooden shelving, and we adore the chandelier!
