Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have reportedly snapped up a home in Portugal, hinting at more frequent visits to Europe and potentially more family time. This ‘unexpected move’ could mean the Duke and Duchess of Sussex will be spending additional time on European soil, possibly rekindling familial bonds, especially since one royal relative already has a foothold in the sunny country.
Princess Eugenie, Harry’s cousin, along with her spouse Jack Brooksbank, enjoy their Portuguese retreat where they unwind with their sons, August and Ernest. Despite the turbulence in his relationships with Prince William and King Charles, Harry is believed to have always kept a warm connection with Eugenie and is fond of Jack.

With buzz growing around Harry and Meghan’s potential new residence in Portugal, a royal insider has spoken exclusively to the Mirror about what this development could spell for the Sussexes’ family dynamics. Jennie Bond, ex-BBC royal reporter, shared with us: “I think it perhaps suggests that they DO want their children to know at least some of their UK family.”
“I don’t know quite why they feel they need to BUY a place….especially given that Harry has complained about lack of money in the past…..rather than just stay with Jack and Eugenie or rent a place, but it suggests that they intend to spend more time on this side of the Atlantic.”

“And that’s a positive move because it implies that the children won’t be solely immersed in American culture and will have a better understanding of their European roots,” the former BBC royal correspondent concluded.
The reported purchase in Portugal follows Harry and Meghan’s departure from Frogmore Cottage in the UK last year after King Charles asked them to vacate. This left the Sussexes without a personal residence in the UK, having relocated to California, where they reside with their two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lillibet.
Previously, the late Queen had bestowed the property on Windsor Estate to them as a wedding gift when they tied the knot in 2018. They moved into the home as newlyweds in 2019 and stayed until their Royal exit in 2020. The keys were returned in 2023.
