A friend of the royal couple told People that, since giving birth, Meghan has been in “good spirits and absolutely glowing. She was just ready to have this baby!” After experiencing what she described as the “unbearable grief” of a miscarriage last summer, Meghan also wanted to be able to enjoy this pregnancy in private, according to their friend who said, “They just took it one day at a time, they wanted to have this moment for themselves.”
As for how Meghan and Harry are settling in to life on the West Coast, the insider said that Montecito “is very quiet and perfect for them. They are close to the beach, which they enjoy, and they also have friends in the neighborhood that they spend time with. They spend a lot of time at home with Archie but have also managed to get a few date nights in as well. This feels like their first proper home together, because they were able to find a house that they both love. It’s nice to see them enjoy life.”
