The pair, who tied the knot in 2018, have long been viewed as boundary-pushers when it comes to their very public romance.

From the start, their relationship attracted intense scrutiny. Tabloid headlines erupted when it emerged that Harry, now 41, was marrying a divorced woman — a detail that caused no shortage of pearl-clutching. Matters escalated further when the couple reportedly felt mistreated by senior members of the Royal Family, ultimately leading them to step back from official royal duties altogether.

A Break From Tradition

Their decision marked a dramatic departure from royal protocol, particularly when Meghan, Harry, and their son Prince Archie — now six — relocated from the UK to sun-soaked Montecito, California. There, they later welcomed their daughter, four-year-old Lilibet.

Since distancing themselves from royal life, the Sussexes have also embraced social media. Meghan, in particular, regularly shares lifestyle content and glimpses of family life that feel far removed from the Palace’s traditionally reserved image.

Despite past criticism, the couple appear to have little intention of reverting to royal norms any time soon.
