It is impossible for Prince Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle, to keep their private life a secret no matter how hard they try.
The pair moved thousands of miles away from the British paparazzi only to discover that the ones in America are even more ruthless and intrusive.
Photographers chasing the money shots of famous celebrities will go the extra mile to obtain what they are searching for via drones and helicopters if needed.
Recently, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex and their one-year-old son, Archie, decided to flee the mansion that they had rented from media mogul Tyler Perry. Using drones, Archie was photographed with his grandmother, Doria Ragland.
The power couple had filed lawsuits against the paparazzi who constantly took pictures of the luxurious $18 million home they resided in.
To reclaim some sense of privacy Prince Harry and Meghan, who might be pregnant with royal baby number 2, have left Hollywood for a stunning private family home in Santa Barbara, but photos of the home have already leaked online.
A source had this to say about the $14.5 million home that was purchased six weeks ago: “Harry and Meghan have been quietly living in their own home in Santa Barbara since early July. They are not houseguests of Oprah or anyone else, they bought this home themselves. This is where they want to continue their lives after leaving the UK. This is the first home either of them has ever owned. It has been a very special time for them as a couple and as a family — to have complete privacy for six weeks since they moved in.”
The power couple is hoping this is the quiet area where Archie will have a normal childhood.
The insider explained: “They intend to put down their roots in this house and the quiet community, which has considerable privacy. This is where they want to bring Archie up, where they hope he can have as normal a life as possible.”
After the news broke and the photos have surfaced, the couple issued a statement that read: “The Duke and Duchess of Sussex moved into their family home in July of this year. They have settled into the quiet privacy of their community since their arrival and hope that this will be respected for their neighbors, as well as for them as a family.”
Harry and Meghan are adjusting to a new life as they establish themselves as brands.
