哈利王子與梅根在 2019年生下第一個孩子亞契(Archie)不久,便宣布退出英國皇室,還搬往美國加州定居。二人一直成為傳媒爭先訪問和報導的對象,他們亦多次在不同平台分享過往在皇室生活的想法,例如與名嘴 Oprah Winfrey 進行獨家專訪,Meghan 直言有皇室成員對嬰兒的膚色提出疑問,甚至有自殺念頭等等。事實上,梅根亦曾對外表示自己在去年 7月流產,令她悲痛不已,慶幸今年情人節當天公布再度懷孕的消息,如今產下重量為7磅多的 Lili,母女平安。

另外,兩人宣布將女兒命名為 Lilibet Diana Mountbatten-Windsor,乳名為「Lily」,這正是伊麗莎白二世(Queen Elizabeth II)小時候的綽號;「Diana」固然是哈利王子紀念母親戴安娜王妃(Princess Diana)的想法。哈利王子過往多次表達對戴安娜王妃的思念之情,他與 Oprah Winfrey 合力製作的節目紀錄片《你看不見的我》The Me You Can’t See),首次披露自 12歲母親過世後的心路歷程,還暗示用過酒精跟毒品逃避內心的焦慮與不安,同時接受心理醫生治療。
