The Duke and Duchess of Sussex left the UK in 2020

Prince Harry "really misses the UK", according to a royal insider, as he and Meghan Markle have very different lifestyles out in Montecito.

After getting married in May 2018, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex decided to leave their position as senior working royals in 2020.


Then, the couple relocated to America and settled into a large Montecito estate.

Meghan and Harry moved to California more than three years ago to start their lives in the US, but it has now been suggested that the duke misses his home country.

Samantha Markle, Meghan's half-sister, and her father Thomas Markle are not on speaking terms with the duchess.

Harry has also not been on good terms with his family since moving to America.

But while Harry "really misses the UK", Meghan is said to enjoy mingling with Hollywood's elite.

The couple's lifestyles differ significantly, royal biographer Emily Adams told Woman Magazine.

According to the insider, Meghan is "enjoying" her celebrity status.

"Harry loves his wife and children; he is happy but really misses the UK," she said.

Harry is living a more laid-back life in Montecito while Meghan, who formerly ran a lifestyle blog called The Tig and acted in the show Suits, is savouring her glamorous LA lifestyle.

The duke is said to be content dropping Prince Archie off at preschool and taking their dog to the beach.

Another source added: "There's very much a feeling that Harry wants to concentrate on charity work and his family, while Meghan is much more concentrated on moving her brand forward."

The couple moved to Montecito in 2020 and welcomed their second child, Princess Lilibet, in June 2021.

The family of four are very private when it comes to their children, as Archie and Lili have rarely been photographed in public.
