Known among her neighbors as "the princess of Montecito," Meghan Markle's lifestyle and daily activities in the affluent neighborhood of Montecito, California, have become the focus of attention among friends, neighbors, and even Hollywood celebrities.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, who spent $14 million on a luxurious mansion in the area, have earned a reputation for their distinctive behavior.
According to a neighbor who spoke to the UK's "Closer" magazine, Meghan's husband, Prince Harry, takes on the primary responsibility of caring for their children, while Meghan herself focuses on her business endeavors.
The couple's opulent preferences extend to their choice of dining establishments, where Meghan reportedly makes specific requests and reservations, even designating tables exclusively for her use.
The source disclosed that Meghan has developed a penchant for high-end venues such as Cecconi's, Sunset Tower, Sugarfish, and Lucky's Steakhouse in Montecito, the latter being a recommendation from Oprah Winfrey, who has become a close friend of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. Meghan's neighbor emphasized that the couple enjoys a pampered experience at these establishments, receiving attentive service.
The source further revealed that Meghan spends a significant amount of her time at Oprah Winfrey's lavish home, where she engages in discussions with her best friend, Gayle King. These conversations reportedly cover a range of topics, from Meghan's future plans to current events in the UK and how Prince Harry is coping with various challenges.
Adding to the revelations, the source highlighted Prince Harry's hands-on role in parenting. According to the insider, Harry takes charge of caring for the children, handling tasks such as feeding, bathing, and dressing them. Meghan, meanwhile, is described as being occupied with business-related Zoom calls and meetings in Los Angeles, often chauffeured by Harry, who prefers not to leave their children with babysitters.
