And that includes finding somewhere to call home in Vancouver.
According to The Sun, the pair are eyeing off a stunning 640 sq m mansion, that has been dubbed ‘Megha-mansion’, in the highly prestigious and pricey neighbourhood of West Vancouver,.
The beachside six-bedroom five-bathroom family residence is set over four levels and listed at $35,880,000 Canadian dollars or A$39.89m. It is set on more than 1140 sq m of land and enjoys breathtaking views of the beautiful Vancouver harbour.
The residence also boasts a seamless indoor/outdoor lifestyle that allows its owners to make the most of Vancouver’s mild (by Canadian standards) winter but also take advantage of their warm summers.
Its features include a walkout side view terrace, manicured private gardens, private gates, six-metre high walls and a private guest suite located on the uppermost level. An estate agent source in Canada told The Sun: “Meghan has expressed an interest in this beautiful house. It would be perfect for her, Harry and little Archie.
“The neighbourhood is known as a haven for wealthy people and has a very laid-back atmosphere. I’m sure they would be very happy there, and they would be welcomed with open arms.”
A Vancouver-based property source said: “The house is a real gem in Kitsilano – one of the most desirable neighbourhoods in Vancouver.

“The area is particularly sought after by super-rich and image conscious young achievers.
“It’s close to Kitsilano beach, which is a very cool spot that does stuff like beach yoga in the summer.
“But best of all for Harry and Meghan, it’s quiet and locals respect each other and value their privacy.
“They’d fit in very well.”
The 108-year-old residence lies in a prized part of West Vancouver’s billionaire’s row dubbed “Golden Miles”.
Incredibly, the house could be considered something of “a bargain”, The Sun reported, after new tax rules on exclusive homes has led to a 16 per cent drop in value in the exclusive area over the last two years.
