Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, after nearly three years of living in
their opulent Montecito estate with Tuscan-style charm, might be considering a
move. According to rumors, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are discreetly
exploring the picturesque enclave of Malibu in search of a new coastal
abode.
While they have enjoyed their time in the serene haven of Montecito since
settling there in 2020, they feel a bit disconnected from the vibrant city
life. This has prompted them to casually look for a new residence near the
oceanfront in Malibu, where Meghan spent much of her childhood.
The couple made headlines when they purchased a grand 15-bedroom villa in
Montecito, but now Megan’s affinity for the sea has drawn them towards
properties by the coastline. While the idea of a potential move to Malibu is
tantalizing, no concrete decisions have been made yet.
However, the prospect remains on their radar, and the idea of relocating their
family of four to Malibu holds genuine appeal for Harry and Meghan.
Interestingly, Malibu holds a special sentimental connection to Harry’s
beloved late mother, Diana, Princess of Wales. Diana’s former butler, Paul
Burrell, revealed that she had contemplated relocating to this Californian
haven after her divorce from Prince Charles.
Diana wished for her sons, William and Harry, to experience a life away from
the relentless spotlight and envisioned a place where they could enjoy freedom
and recreational activities like surfing and frisbee. This dream resonates
with the couple’s desire to provide a more adventurous and relaxed environment
for their own family.
Moreover, a potential move to Malibu would bring Harry and Meghan closer to
Megan’s mother, Doria Ragland, who currently resides in LA. The couple had
initially considered moving to Los Angeles after leaving Tyler Perry’s
residence, but the pandemic’s challenges and privacy concerns led them to
Montecito.
Although Megan has fond memories of Montecito from her teenage years, where
she was captivated by the stunning scenery and exquisite architecture, they
are now intrigued by the idea of embracing a more vibrant atmosphere and
seizing coastal living opportunities in Malibu.
As we eagerly await their final decision, the prospect of Prince Harry and
Meghan Markle gracing Malibu with their presence has stirred excitement and
anticipation among locals and royal enthusiasts alike. Only time will unveil
the next chapter in their journey.
