Meghan Markle said her children, Archie and Lilibet, have adjusted well to their new life in the United Kingdom, a source told People ahead of the couple’s first public appearance since returning.
What happened
Over the weekend the Duchess posted a video of Archie and Lilibet walking with school backpacks, showing the family’s routine after moving back to the UK last month. The source explained that after the initial weeks the priority was establishing a school routine, and now the children are “excited to focus more on their work and the projects that matter to them.”
What the reports add
The Times reported that Meghan and Harry will visit Nottingham on Thursday to see projects at three charities supporting young people through music, film, sport and food‑poverty initiatives. A friend of the couple told the outlet that Nottingham is “a really special place for them.” Multiple friends also said the family is “happy and settled” in their rented Cotswolds home.
What was said
“The kids have adjusted well, and that’s the most important thing to her,” the insider said to People. The source added that “during the week, while the kids are in school, they’re working. They’re enjoying family weekends together.”
How it came about
Meghan’s earlier Instagram story showed Archie on a scooter and Lilibet walking with their Labrador Pula, a clip that Felo previously linked to the family’s countryside walk ahead of the Nottingham visit. The Duchess is also working on her lifestyle brand As Ever and plans to resume collaborations with her former royal patronages, including the Association of Commonwealth Universities and The National Theatre.
