Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have moved into a property on a friend's Cotswolds estate after relocating to the UK in August.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have moved into a property on a friend's estate in the Cotswolds, ending their search for a permanent home in the region. The couple relocated to the UK in August and had initially been staying in the main house on the estate belonging to a wealthy businessman friend. They have now moved to a separate property on the same estate, according to reports.

The businessman became friends with Prince Harry through their mutual support of military charities. A friend of the businessman told outlets: 'They were living in the main house. They have now moved to a property on the estate.' The businessman is reportedly happy for the Sussexes and their children to continue living on his estate.

Prince Archie is seven years old and Princess Lilibet is five. The children are now attending school in the UK, though The Independent reports they had to move from their first choice over security concerns.

The couple retain their £19.5 million mansion in Montecito, California, which features a gym, swimming pool, cinema and wine cellar. According to the Daily Mail, they also bought a coastal home in Portugal in 2024 near that owned by Harry's cousin Princess Eugenie and her husband Jack Brooksbank.

The Independent reports that Meghan Markle is expected to temporarily relocate to Australia next year for filming of Junior Masterchef, which she is set to co-host. A source told News.com.au that Harry and their children may travel to visit her, although nothing has been confirmed.
