Weeks ago, the couple had secretly flown to Meghan's hometown in Los Angeles, California, where they are said to be house hunting and plan on living permanently.

A source told US Weekly that the couple's son, Archie, is adjusting well to his new environment after spending almost three months in Canada.

, their decision to step down as senior members of the royal family was also influenced by their desire to raise Archie in a more multicultural environment.

They haven't completely departed from the values of servitude they learned as royal, and they intend to raise him as a responsible citizen with a compassionate understanding of the world.

Using Archie as inspiration for the latest endeavor, Meghan and Harry recently announced the name of their highly anticipated non-profit and named the organization "Archewell."

According to Bazaar, the couple revealed that the name combines the Greek meaning "source of action" with the English word for a well; "a deep source" they explained: "we each must draw upon."
