Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s post-royal life has probably not turned out quite as they expected. Besides completely ruining their relationship with the Royal Family — even if many believed they made the right choice in revealing details about their troubles in the UK — the couple has tackled several new business ventures, with mixed results.
Moving to the US and sunny California would give their children a fresh start in life, but in recent weeks, Harry and Meghan have been rumored to be struggling. Shocking reports about their tension in their marriage have been all over the news, while Harry has been said to be open to a royal return. At the same time, the couple have bought a new house in Portugal — but not for the reasons some might think.
Harry and Meghan have, as claimed by an expert, had a “professional split’ when it comes to their brand. Now, another royal commentator has made his verdict on the pair, and it relates to them going their separate ways.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle decided to leave royal life behind in 2020. The couple first moved to Canada before settling in Montecito, California, where they’re raising their two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.
Although the decision to leave the UK and the paparazzi press was taken to create a calmer, safer environment for themselves and their children, the fact that Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet are thousands of miles away from half of their family members has been a huge talking point.

King Charles is said to be heartbroken that he doesn’t get to see his grandchildren, and Harry and Meghan have basically said they won’t return to the UK with Archie and Lilibet unless they’re granted the security they feel they’re being denied in order to keep their children safe.
However, Harry and Meghan have recently made a decision that could positively affect their children’s relationships with the royal side of their family. Last week, it was reported that the Sussexes has bought a house in Portugal. The house is located in Alentejo, just an hour’s drive from the coastal town of Melides, and there is one main reason for that location.
Princess Eugenie and her husband, Jack Brooksbank, own a home in Melides. According to reports, Harry’s cousin is the only member of the Royal Family with whom he is still friends.
