“I wanted to protect that safe haven,” Meghan told People in a 2025 interview. “We’re a close-knit family, and I love those moments — putting Lili down for a nap, having lunch together, having sacred time together at the end of the day. Our kitchen is where Mama just cooks for the family, and with a crew of 80-plus people, that’s a lot of people to have in your house.”
Earlier this summer, Meghan shared snippets of her travels abroad with Harry and their children. One image Meghan snapped and shared via Instagram is believed to have been taken at Althorp House, the Spencer family estate where Harry’s late mother grew up. (Princess Diana’s brother, Earl Charles Spencer, currently lives on the property. She was buried in the “Oval Lake” island after her death in August 1997 at age 36.)
In the photo, Harry and Archie were carrying large white floral bouquets down a tree-lined path. Lilibet ran behind them as she carried a small purse in both of her hands. It is unclear whether Harry brought his family to visit Diana’s gravesite or home.
“Summer Holiday ☀️,” Meghan captioned the Instagram upload.
