Hey there, everyone. Let’s dive into some royal news that’s got everyone buzzing. Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are officially settled into their new life in Santa Barbara. The Duchess of Sussex couldn’t help but gush about her new home during an intimate sit-down with feminist icon Gloria Steinem. This heartfelt chat was shared with the world on Monday, August 25, giving us all a glimpse into their new chapter.
A Heartfelt Welcome Home
During the conversation, Gloria Steinem, who’s been an inspiration to millions for decades, warmly welcomed Meghan back home. At 86 years young, Gloria expressed her joy, saying, “I’m so glad that you’re home.” Meghan, now 39, couldn’t agree more, replying with heartfelt gratitude, “Thank you. Me too, for so many reasons.” It’s clear that Meghan is not just settling into a house but finding a home where she feels truly at peace.
A Historic Backyard Chat
The video, which made its debut on the MAKERS Women Instagram account, was captured just last week in the picturesque town of Santa Barbara, California. MAKERS Women described the encounter as a “historic backyard chat,” teasing fans with the promise of more content to come. It’s not every day you get to witness a conversation between two such powerful women, making this a moment to treasure.

Starting Anew in Santa Barbara
Back in March, Meghan and her husband, Prince Harry, made the bold decision to move to California with their 15-month-old son, Archie. This move came after the couple stepped back from their roles as senior members of the British royal family. For a while, they were guests of Tyler Perry at his luxurious Los Angeles mansion. But after months of searching, they found their perfect place in Santa Barbara, ready to put down roots and watch their little family grow.
The house they’ve chosen has a serene Mediterranean vibe, complete with French doors, elegant archways, and a sparkling pool. An insider gave us a peek, saying, “It’s beautiful and spacious, but not too over-the-top. It’s the perfect place for Archie to grow up.” With its charm and comfort, it’s no wonder Meghan feels so at home.
Privacy is also a significant perk of their new residence. Nestled in California’s exclusive Montecito neighborhood, it offers far more solitude than Tyler Perry’s bustling house. This has allowed the couple to cut back on security costs, redirecting those funds to more meaningful ventures. And with the $14.7 million price tag on their new home, they’ve already given fans a virtual tour through Zoom calls, showcasing the stunning windows and dark wood panels that add character to their space.
One of the best parts about their new home is its proximity to Meghan’s mom, Doria Ragland. Though they reside in different neighborhoods, Archie can now easily visit his grandma whenever he wants—a luxury they didn’t have when living in the U.K.
