Soon after, the controversy surrounding Harry and Meghan took another turn, as rumors of a split abounded.

During the September 2023 Invictus Games, Harry and Meghan were remarkably handsy with each other.

At the time,Harper’s Bazaareven called them “so in love.”

And, it is possible that he does not want to let the press succeed.

However, over the years, the couple has been outspoken about the challenges of dealing with the tabloids.

They had paid certain neighbors to put a live stream camera into my backyard."

All in all, this invasion of privacy left Meghan feeling terrified.

The duchess shared, “All the curtains were pulled and the blinds were pulled.

It was scary.”

Historically speaking, divorced royals have faced massive amounts of press interest and the Sussexes know it.

Harry revealed, “My mom was harassed throughout her life with my dad …

But after they separated, the harassment went to new levels.”

And, perhaps, this goal has helped the couple stick together.

“The idea of having those in front of the kids?

This stance could very well be a product of the Sussexes' childhood memories.

After all, both Harry and Meghan struggled immensely when their own parents parted ways, respectively.

Interestingly, Harry expressed a similar sentiment in the Netflix documentary series, “Harry & Meghan.”

Over the years, the pair has hinted at how much they love their life in Montecito, California.

At the end of the day, though, work trips are just work trips.

According toPage Six, Netflix has confirmed that this is an idea that Harry has long hoped to pursue.

It did, however, remain unclear which country Harry might have chosen for filming.

At the September 2023 Invictus Games, the pair were photographed holding hands.

They also looked cozy in the stands with Harry’s arm draped over his wife’s shoulders.

As one source close to the couple toldUs Weekly, “They’re a united front.

As far as they’re concerned, it’s Harry and Meghan against the world.”

And speaking toPeople, a family friend shared, “They seemed really happy together.
