Prince Harry Joins Meghan Markle for Exclusive Home Visit with Strict Privacy Rules
Prince Harry was on hand at their stunning California estate during a rare home visit, as Meghan Markle welcomed a journalist into their Montecito residence. The visit, tied to Meghan’s promotion of her new lifestyle brand As Ever, offered a glimpse into the couple’s private world—though under tightly controlled conditions.
The Duchess of Sussex gave The New York Times reporter Julia Moskin exclusive access to her kitchen, where Meghan’s passion for home cooking took center stage. However, strict privacy measures were non-negotiable. Photographs of their home? Off-limits. The newspaper highlighted this unique moment, stating: “This marked the first time a reporter stepped into her kitchen, shedding light on her love for cooking. (Entry came with a firm rule: no photos inside or of the house).”
With Prince Harry present at their California estate, the visit underscored the couple’s ongoing effort to juggle public appearances with their fiercely guarded privacy. While the occasion peeled back the curtain on their daily life just a little, the strict no-recording policy ensured it remained a carefully curated peek rather than a full reveal.
This blend of openness and restriction shows how Prince Harry and Meghan Markle continue to impose firm boundaries, even as they share snippets of their world with the public. From Meghan’s kitchen to their Montecito haven, the couple’s new home visit rules are making headlines—and keeping privacy front and center.
