The beloved couple of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have finally shifted from the UK to Canada, a Commonwealth country. There had been speculation on the subject for quite a while and it has finally happened. Meghan Markle is in Canada with her husband and son Archie. The Prince described it as “taking a leap of faith.” He surrendered his life as a member of the royal family and explained that he felt he did not have any other alternative. In the course of an emotion-filled speech, he admitted that he opted out of royal duties in order to pursue peaceful family life.
Before coming to Canada, Harry completed a few engagements in London.

Daily Mail UK informed about some decisions the pair has taken. One pertains to their titles of HRH. Harry and Meghan will not use it any longer. They would also return the money of the taxpayers that went into the renovation of their Frogmore home. As to their stay in Canada, the couple indicated that most of the time they would live here. They probably feel there would be less intrusion of the media in their day-to-day lives in this country.
Before taking the decision, Meghan Markle and her husband had taken a long leave during Christmas.

Prince Harry has links with Sentebale, a charity. He assured that he was not deserting them.

The future role of him and his wife also came up for discussions. They wanted the freedom to breathe life into various activities and might have stepped unknowingly on many toes.
