The past few weeks have been tough for the entire world amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Recently, we have surpassed the 1 million mark of people infected globally.
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are taking no chances of contracting the disease as they stay isolated in their Los Angeles home.

BETTER SAFE THAN SORRY
The couple, together with their only son Archie and dogs, have stayed within the four corners of their home after moving to LA. An insider noted:
“Meghan’s obsessive about the house being clean and is going through boxes of disinfectant wipes every day. She washes her hands every 15 minutes.”

The royals have been extra cautious protecting their family that Markle’s mom, Doria Ragland, can only see her grandson through FaceTime, despite living nearby.
The excited grandma will see baby Archie in person once things are back to normal. The former “Suits” star has also yet to show her husband around the city.

“[Harry’s] spending time outside in the garden, making the most of the sunshine and playing with Archie,” another source said of the family-of-three.
FROM CANADA TO CALIFORNIA
The royal family moved from Vancouver Island, Canada, to California right before flights were put on hold due to the outbreak. A source claims that Archie is “happy to be in the California sunshine.”

Now that they live as private citizens, Markle and Harry will not be updating their SussexRoyal.com website about their lives.
They currently reside in a gated mansion worth $15 million, which includes a pool. However, the two made sure that the house is structured safe for their child.

Their move comes after the couple decided to live on their own and end their roles as senior royals, although still continuing charitable work.

In all of their decisions, the proud parents always put baby Archie as a top priority. Included in this decision was not to give the child a royal title.
THE WRAP-UP PROCESS
As part of their wrap-up as senior members of the British Royal Family, the royal couple prepared to put down their Instagram account with the username @SussexRoyal.

The two also shut down their offices at Buckingham Palace, although an automated response will reportedly be sent to those who contact the office.
Markle and Harry will be working as private citizens as well, which comes as a problem for the prince, who has to secure a work permit in America as a different citizen.
