The growing family of three has been settling into life in Montecito, California, since their move last summer.
“They are both extremely attentive parents. Harry wants to give Archie the childhood he always wanted,” an insider explained to People in October. “They spend a ton of time outside, and both Harry and Meghan love to play—all the private space is a dream for them.”
Archie is really happy, and he has space to run free,” the source claimed. “The house came with a play structure that he’ll be climbing in no time.”
“To have outdoor space where I can go for walks with Archie and we go for walks as a family and with the dogs. You know, we go on hikes or go down to the beach, which is so close,” Harry told Oprah in March.
“The highlight for me is sticking him on the back of the bicycle in his little baby seat and taking him on bike rides is something which I never was able to do when I was young. I can see him on the back, and he’s got his arms out, chatting: ‘Palm tree?’ House?’ ” Harry also explained to Oprah, as he shared his son’s growing California-centric vocabulary.
Meghan recently shared that her motherhood journey encouraged her to write a children’s book, “The Bench.”
