Prince Harry and Meghan Markle live in a sprawling mansion in Montecito with their two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, and with no plans to move back to the UK, they have given up the lease on Frogmore Cottage.
This week the news was confirmed that the couple have officially vacated the property with Sir Michael Stevens, Keeper of the Privy Purse, reporting: "We can confirm that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have vacated Frogmore Cottage. The Duke and Duchess have repaid the expenditure incurred by the Sovereign Grant in relation to the renovation of Frogmore Cottage, thus leaving the Crown with a greatly enhanced asset."
However, it was back in 2020 when the couple moved most of their belongings out of the property and the bittersweet moment the Duke and Duchess of Sussex packed their bags at the Windsor home was caught on camera when they filmed for their Netflix docuseries, Harry & Meghan.

"It really gave us a chance to look back at our whole love story," revealed the Duchess, as she and Harry plucked out memorable photographs from their personal stash.
The home was also the first place they raised their son Archie, so of course, it held so many magical memories. Prince Harry said it was "very sad" and revealed they had imagined their future with Archie running around the garden and swimming in the Queen's pond.
The Netflix documentary also showcased happier times at the home, including bath time for Archie and the couple relaxing in their country-style kitchen.
Before moving in, the Sussexes spent £2.4 million renovating Frogmore Cottage into a four-bedroom-and-nursery property.

According to The Sun, part of Harry and Meghan's extensive renovations included the installation of an 'eco-boiler' which supplies endless hot water and low-carbon heat. The royals would have been forced to part ways with the high-tech equipment which is estimated to have cost up to a whopping £50,000.
