Meghan Markle Reveals Why She’s Still in Honeymoon Phase With Prince Harry

by

Meghan Markle is still living a fairytale with Prince Harry.

Meghan Markle, now known as the Duchess of Sussex, who tied the knot with Prince Harry (Duke of Sussex) in 2018 and left the royal family in 2020 to seek a quieter lifestyle, revealed that their recent years have been more thrilling than ever.

Meghan explained during a podcast episode with Jamie Kern Lima on April 28th that initially, everyone experiences butterflies. Then, she noted, we jumped straight into facing challenges together, starting just about six months into our relationship.

Seven years on, with some room to spare, we can savor our time together in a fresh manner,” she explained. “This is what makes me think that we’re experiencing something similar to a second honeymoon.

From that moment onwards, following their wedding day, when Meghan officially became a royal, Meghan and Harry, parents to 5-year-old Prince Archie and 3-year-old Princess Lilibet, seamlessly stepped into their new lives as part of the royal family.

After resigning from their senior royal roles, the couple has been focusing on personal interests and business endeavors. For instance, Meghan is involved in a Netflix series called “With Love, Meghan” and runs her own lifestyle brand named As Ever. On the other hand, Harry continues his work with the Invictus Games – an initiative he established in 2014 to provide a platform for wounded, injured, or sick military personnel.

Apart from unwavering encouragement towards one another’s interests, the former Suits actress acknowledged that her spouse possesses numerous qualities that make him exceptional.

As if it weren’t already evident, let me tell you, he’s not just any ordinary fella, he’s a fox! And mark my words, we’re destined to be together forever. Now, I know it sounds cheesy, but there’s no denying that my husband is strikingly handsome. Yet, his heart, oh his heart, that’s the real treasure here.

Without a doubt, the 43-year-old made it clear that she always aims to appreciate her partner, who’s been her most ardent supporter in her latest endeavors, wholeheartedly.

Meghan gleefully shared, ‘H adores me deeply,’ adding, ‘See the incredible world we’ve created together! We’ve constructed a stunning life filled with love, and we’re blessed with two vibrant, healthy children.’

As a lifestyle advocate, I’d like to highlight that just like me, Harry, at 40, prioritizes not only our family’s safety and well-being but also our happiness. He meticulously ensures we are shielded, lifted up, and living our best lives. Interestingly, he manages this with a remarkable balance, still carving out time for romantic evenings together, which is essential for a thriving relationship.

To be honest, despite being married for almost seven years now, Meghan only recently confessed that she has never been happier than she is right now.

Meghan shared with TIME’s CEO Jessica Sibley on April 23 that she feels incredibly happy and thankful for a husband who is very supportive, children who are healthy and joyous. She had not envisioned feeling this contented at this stage in life.

He said to Sky News in 2015, when asked if the birth of his niece Princess Charlotte prompted thoughts about settling down, “I don’t believe you can rush these matters. They will unfold naturally when they are ready.” He added, “Although I would love to have children now, there is a sequence of events one must follow.

In years past, Meghan Markle had a premonition and bought something for her future child. She shared with Hello! in 2015 that she had long admired the Cartier French Tank watch. When the show “Suits” was renewed for a third season – an achievement that felt significant at the time – she decided to treat herself and purchased the two-tone version. She had it engraved with the words, “To M.M. From M.M.”, intending to give it to her daughter someday.

Discussing parenthood, much like marriage, has consistently followed the younger son of Prince Charles and the late Princess Diana. In an interview with People magazine in May 2016, prior to meeting his current partner, he expressed mixed feelings about fatherhood, stating, “At times during life, particularly when we travel abroad, I think, ‘I’d love to have kids now.’… Yet there are other instances where I find myself hiding in the sand, thinking, ‘No need for kids!’ There’s no hurry. I’ve even had moments where the thought of having children has deterred me.

2017 saw the Duke and Duchess of Sussex announcing their engagement and granting their first joint interview. Inevitably, the subject of having children surfaced. “Absolutely,” Prince Harry stated, adding, “One foot in front of the other, and we hope to start a family soon.” Meghan smiled at his side during this conversation.

Meghan expressed that it was like magic for her to become a mother after Archie’s birth. She found it incredibly amazing and, let me tell you, I have the absolute best pair of men by my side, making me extremely content.

After Archie was born in May 2019, Harry expressed his feelings by saying, “This experience has been more incredible than I could ever have imagined. The strength and courage of women never cease to amaze me, but we’re both incredibly happy and grateful for all the love and support from everyone out there. It’s been an amazing journey, so we wanted to share our joy with everyone.

During a speech at the National Youth Mentoring Summit in 2019, Harry pondered over the valuable insights he’s gained since becoming a parent. He revealed, “Today, several thoughts stand out to me, chiefly the impact of the unseen role model. The person who might be unaware that they are looked up to, and for whom you serve as an inspiration to be more compassionate, improve, strive for greatness, achieve more success, make a bigger difference. It could be someone sitting here today without realizing it.” He further added, “As a father, I’ve gained a new perspective knowing that my son is constantly observing me, copying my actions, and perhaps one day emulating my path.

In his talk in 2020, Prince Harry expressed that our small hero is our topmost concern, but following that, our tasks become our next priority. Essentially, we are striving to contribute in any way possible towards making the world a more favorable environment.

Harry and Meghan discovered a positive aspect during the coronavirus pandemic with baby Archie serving as their source of joy. In Meghan’s own words, shared in October 2020, “We are fortunate to have this time to witness him grow, as we would otherwise be traveling and working more, which would make us miss out on many precious moments.” She added, “It has been a lot of quality family time instead.

I shared, “Together, we witnessed Archie’s initial steps, his first sprint, his first stumble, every single milestone.

In May 2021, Meghan appeared seldom on television during Global Citizen’s VAX Live: A Concert to Reunite the World. During this special event, the former actress discussed her pregnancy and expressed her enthusiasm about raising a daughter. She stated, “My spouse and I are overjoyed to be expecting a daughter soon. This is a sensation of happiness we share with countless families worldwide.” When reflecting on their upcoming child, she expressed thoughts about all the young women and girls globally who deserve the opportunity and encouragement to lead us into the future.

She stated, “The choices and actions we take today will shape their future leadership and, in turn, determine if we can build a tomorrow that is prosperous, fair, and filled with kindness for everyone.

In a short guest spot, Meghan appears in her spouse’s Apple TV+ series titled “The Me You Can’t See, co-hosted by Oprah.” During this episode, it appears as though she acknowledges her expanding family with a shirt that says, “Nurturing Tomorrow’s Generation,” which is roughly equivalent to, “Raising the Future.

As a devoted follower, I’m thrilled to share the joyous news: On the 4th of June, my beloved partner and I were graced with the arrival of our precious daughter, Lili. She exceeds all our expectations, and we are profoundly thankful for the love and blessings we’ve received from around the world. We appreciate your unwavering kindness and support as we cherish this exceptional moment in our family’s journey.

On June 8th, 2021, Meghan will debut her initial children’s book titled “The Bench” which honors fatherhood through a mother’s eyes. In a statement released in May, she shared that the book originated from a poem she penned for her husband on Father’s Day, a month after their son Archie was born, which later evolved into this story.

In a letter dated October 2021, addressed to former House Speaker Rep. Nancy Pelosi and Sen. Chuck Schumer, Meghan expressed her delight yet burdened feelings upon the birth of her child during the ongoing pandemic, which had disrupted regular operations in hospitals, schools, among other places.

Similar to many parents, we didn’t face the tough dilemma of either staying with our newborn during those crucial initial months or returning to work. We were fortunate enough to bring our baby home, allowing us to dedicate all our time and energy to our children and family during this important (and significant) period. This decision spared us from having to make difficult choices between childcare, work, and healthcare that many others must confront daily.

Meghan went on saying, “It’s unfair for any family to encounter such difficult choices. A decent family shouldn’t have to opt between earning an income and looking after their child (or a relative, or themselves, considering a broad paid leave policy).

Today in April 2022, Harry expressed that combining home work and parenting responsibilities was nearly impossible for him.

Archie tends to intrude on our Zoom meetings more than anyone else does,” he mentioned. “And it happens quite frequently too, which is interesting.

Harry observed that his son was starting to show signs of the same witty, mischievous spirit he possessed. He explained, “I make an effort to preserve that trait.” He further believed, “The spark of mischief is what truly makes one live long and happily.

Meghan admitted she was concerned for her—and everybody else’s—kids in the age of social media.

During the Archewell Foundation Parents’ Summit on Mental Wellness in the Digital Age, held in October 2023 as part of Project Healthy Minds’ World Mental Health Day, she expressed that being a mother holds the top spot in her life’s priorities, with the exception of being married to Harry.

She continued, “I should mention that I consider ourselves lucky since our kids are still quite young, which means we don’t have to face this situation right away. However, I must admit I’m apprehensive about how things are evolving, and it seems like this issue will be something we’ll have to confront in the future.

As a parent, Meghan observed that “life moves quickly,” expressing it as, “The days may drag on, but the years pass swiftly.” Continuing her thought, she shared her concern about the impact of the digital realm and social media, saying, “We all crave security in this interconnected world.

During a visit to Lightway Academy in Abuja, Nigeria in May 2024, Meghan addressed a group of kindergarteners, saying, “Our daughter Lili is incredibly small compared to all of you. She’s almost 3 years old now, and just recently she looked at me and said, ‘Mama, I see myself in you.’

In Meghan’s own words, “She spoke quite literally, but I interpreted her words in a unique manner. I felt, ‘Indeed, I recognize myself in you, and vice versa.’
