How Meghan Markle and Prince Harry came to stand side by side
It seems like such a short time ago that Prince Harry was single, but those days are long behind him. He and Meghan were introduced on a blind date and hit it off instantly.
Despite living on different continents at the time, they knew their relationship was something special, and they did what they had to do to make it work. In May 2018, Meghan and Prince Harry got married, officially becoming the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
Meghan seemed to fit in well with the royal family and carried out her new royal duties. But Meghan and Harry weren’t happy with royal life and the massive amount of attention that came with it. And early in 2020, they announced they would be stepping down as senior royals. The couple is now living with their young son, Archie Harrison, in Los Angeles, a far cry from their life in the United Kingdom.Â
