Prince Harry reveals his one habit that Meghan still doesn’t understand
The Duke of Sussex, Prince Harry has opened up about his weird routine that drives his wife, Meghan Markle, crazy.
Prince Harry reveals his one home habit that Meghan fails to understand inspired by King Charles.
Whether it’s checking all the windows in the house are shut before going to bed or unplugging every kitchen electrical appliance to avoid burning down the house, we’re all guilty of creating unconventional habits at home. But don’t worry as Prince Harry has spilled the beans on his quirky home habits for all his royal fans.
Prince Harry, once a prominent member of the British royal family with his wife Meghan Markle, has always enchanted the public with his life behind palace walls. While much attention has been focused on their departure from royal duties, little is known about the Duke’s day-to-day routines within the confines of his home.
Prince Harry and Meghan have been married together for almost six years now, but he’s disclosed that there’s one habit of his that his wife still doesn’t understand. The Duke of Sussex said he’s a stickler for turning the lights off when he leaves a room – something that’s been planted in both him and his brother Prince William by their eco-conscious dad, Prince Charles.

Speaking in the BBC documentary, Prince, Son and Heir: Charles at 70, the 34-year-old said: “He’s a stickler for turning lights off and that’s now something that I’m obsessed with.” William added: “I know, I’ve got serious OCD with light switches now.”

Harry then shared his wife’s views on the “obsession” and asked if Kate felt the same, saying: “Which is insane because I don’t know if your wife does it but my wife certainly goes, ‘Well, why turn the lights off? It’s dark. I go, ‘We only need one light, we don’t need, like, six,’ and all of a sudden, it becomes a habit.”
Meghan moved into Prince Harry’s home, Nottingham Cottage at Kensington Palace, when they announced their engagement in November 2017. The couple got married in May 2018 and Prince Archie was born a year later in 2019. In 2020 the couple decided to leave the royal family and Princess Lilibet Diana was born a year later.
While Prince Harry and Meghan ventured on their journey beyond the royal family, their home habits took on new meaning. No longer restrained by the rules of royal protocol, they were free to adopt a more flexible and personalized approach to domestic life. From casual family dinners to unplanned outings with friends, their home became a sanctuary where they could truly be themselves.

Despite their departure from royal duties, Prince Harry and Meghan remain committed to their core values, including environmental conservation, philanthropy, and family. While their decision to step back from royal life may have been met with scepticism by some, it allowed them the privilege to prioritize what truly mattered to them: their happiness, well-being, and the well-being of their children.

All the times Prince Harry showed his vulnerable side with Meghan Markle
In recent years, we’ve witnessed some touching moments when Prince Harry has been visibly moved in public.
The Duke of Sussex, Prince Harry, has let his emotions show on occasion.
The British royal family are renowned for keeping a stiff upper lip, rarely showing emotion in public. It’s often been for causes close to Prince Harry’s heart or talking about become a father to Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet. And in 2022, there was understandable sorrow as the royal family mourned the loss of Queen Elizabeth II. It’s not just sadness that Harry has expressed publicly – he looked genuinely touched by the crowds on his wedding day to Meghan Markle in 2018, and full of pride at the Invictus Games.
Tears of joy – Harry appeared glassy-eyed as he and his new wife, Meghan, rode through the streets of Windsor in a carriage procession following their wedding at St George’s Chapel on 19 May 2018.

WellChild Awards 2019 – Harry blinked back tears as he gave an emotional address at the WellChild Awards in October 2019. The Duke has been patron of the charity, which helps seriously ill children in the UK, since 2007. Speaking about that moment in his memoir, Spare, released in January 2023, Harry recalled: “I walked onstage, began my brief remarks, and caught sight of Meg’s face. I thought back to a year ago, when she and I attended this event just weeks after taking that home pregnancy test.
“We’d been filled with hope, and worry, like all expectant parents, and now we had a healthy little boy at home. But these parents and children hadn’t been so lucky. “Gratitude and sympathy converged in my heart, and I choked up. Unable to get the words out, I held the lectern tight and leaned forward. The presenter, who’d been a friend of my mother, stepped over and gave my shoulder a rub.”

Invictus Games The Hague 2022 – It had been a long road to the Invictus Games in The Hague in 2022, which had to be postponed for two years amid the pandemic. Meghan’s sweet tribute to her husband almost brought Harry to tears as she introduced him on stage: “Now it is my distinguished honour to introduce someone who I think you’ll be excited to hear from. He has spent many late nights and early mornings planning for these games to make them as perfect as possible for each of you, she said.
“I could not love and respect him more and I know many of you feel the same because he is your fellow veteran having served two tours of Afghanistan, and ten years of military service and the founder of Invictus Games and the father to our two little ones, Archie and Lili. “This is dedication and this is the Invictus family. Please welcome to the stage my incredible husband, Prince Harry, the Duke of Sussex.” In response, an overwhelmed Harry gave his wife a kiss before replying: “Thank you, my love.”

Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral – Harry was seen wiping back tears as he and wife, Meghan, attended the state funeral of the Duke’s grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II, at Westminster Abbey 2022.
In a tribute to the late Queen days after her death, the Duke said: “Granny, while this final parting brings us great sadness, I am forever grateful for all of our first meetings – from my earliest childhood memories with you, to meeting you for the first time as my commander-in-chief, to the first moment you met my darling wife and hugged your beloved great-grandchildren.”

Prince Harry revealed that he’s watched the Duchess of Sussex, Meghan, play a small role in the 2006 made-for-TV movie, ‘Deceit’.
Prince Harry has proven once again he’s Meghan Markle’s biggest fan.
The Duke of Sussex, Harry, attended the Living Legends of Aviation Awards in Beverly Hills, California. The royal was being recognised for his work as a British Army veteran and pilot. Among those in attendance included director Matthew Cole Weiss, who had previously directed the 2006 TV movie Deceit, in which Meghan appears in one scene. Taking to social media, Weiss recalled his encounter with Harry and revealed that the father of two has watched his wife’s small role in the film.
“Got to have a full convo with Prince Harry. Super sweet. He knew of the movie I directed starring Meghan! Said he watched it before,” Weiss wrote on X, formerly Twitter.

The Duchess of Sussex received her breakout role in 2011, after being cast as paralegal Rachel Zane in the USA Network drama series, Suits. She was featured on the TV show for seven seasons before the series ended in 2019. Shortly after Meghan wrapped filming in November 2017, she and Harry announced their engagement that same month.
Meghan has remained close with her Suits co-stars, with many of them attending her royal wedding at St George’s Chapel in Windsor Castle in May 2018. When Suits star Gina Torres attended the 2024 Golden Globes earlier this year, she was asked about a potential cast reunion on the red carpet. Variety’s Marc Malkin asked whether Torres and her former co-stars planned on the surprise reunion, adding: “Are you all texting each other?”

In response, Torres – who starred as Jessica Pearson in the legal drama series – confirmed that there is a Suits group chat and some of her former co-stars have been “texting each other”.
“Yeah, our text thread is insane right now,” she said. When Malkin then questioned Torres on “who texted Meghan” to invite her to the Golden Globes reunion, Torres replied: “We don’t have her number. We just don’t, so…” However, the actor expressed her hope that the duchess would find out about the reunion anyway. “She’ll see, she’ll watch,” Torres said. “She’ll be happy that we’re here.”

How Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are raising daughter Lilibet out of the spotlight?
Understanding the pervasive nature of the internet and social media, Prince Harry and Meghan are careful about their children’s online presence.
Meghan and Prince Harry avoid posting regular updates and instead opt for occasional glimpses that celebrate milestones.
She may be royalty, but Princess Lilibet of Sussex has been living a relatively normal life with her dad Prince Harry, mom Meghan Markle, and brother Archie. “To have a boy and then a girl, you know, what more can you ask for?” Prince Harry said a few months before Meghan Markle gave birth to their daughter, Lilibet Diana Mountbatten-Windsor, on June 4, 2021. Their son, Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor, became a big brother.
“We’ve got our family,” Harry told Oprah Winfrey during a sit-down with their Montecito, Calif., neighbour. “We’ve got the four of us and our two dogs, and it’s great.” Added then-pregnant Meghan, “Two is it.”
Also read: Markle has a genetic condition – and she could pass it onto her children.
When Harry pulled their “precious daughter from that world into this,” as he described the moment Lili was born in his 2023 memoir Spare, their family was complete. Back home, the “sacred airspace” near the kitchen was reserved for her playpen, toys, and stuffed animals, christened “Lili Land.”
Harry and Meghan have shared glimpses of their life as parents, including in their 2022 Netflix docuseries. But just a glimpse, because—while their kids remain unwitting celebrities as Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet of Sussex, now sixth and seventh in line to the British throne—the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have not gone the expected royal route.
“We’ve been really conscious of protecting our kids as best as we can,” Meghan said in the series, “and also understanding the role that they play in this really historic family.”

Welcoming Archie into the world their way proved controversial—some longtime royal watchers were scandalized by their refusal to share a birth plan and their desire for a relatively private christening—but since he was born in London while his mum and dad were still senior royals, they played ball. Archie even went on his first royal tour to Africa at 4 months old.
But there was no one to cater to, other than general inquiring minds when Lili was born at Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital three years ago. And, brief foray into a six-episode docuseries aside, they’ve stuck to their intent to raise their babies out of the spotlight.
This meant their May tour of Nigeria was a kids-free trip, though the children were there in spirit. “That’s Lili’s favourite class,” Meghan, who apparently has a budding performer back home, told a class of kindergartners at Lightway Academy in Abuja who danced and sang for the VIP visitors.
Speaking to a group of older children, Meghan applauded the inner strength the kids exhibited just by showing up when the going got tough. “Our daughter, Lili, she’s much, much tinier than you guys,” she noted. “She’s about to turn 3. And a few weeks ago she looked at me and she would just see the reflection in my eyes. And she said, ‘Mama, I see me in you.'”
Meghan also lamented not being home for Mother’s Day on May 12, telling an audience at the State Governor House in Lagos that “of course we are missing our children.”

They returned home a few days later. Meghan acknowledged there really isn’t such a thing as balance when it comes to the whole work-life conversation. “What I think that to mean now is that balance will always change for you,” she reflected during a Women in Leadership event. “That balance, what seems balanced 10 years ago is going to shift. And so being a mom has always been a dream of mine. And I’m so fortunate that we have two beautiful, healthy, very chatty sweet children.”
His son and daughter were “doing great,” Harry said on Good Morning America in February. “They both have got an incredible sense of humour and make us laugh and keep us grounded every single day as most kids do.”

Uploaded to TikTok by user meghmarkle on May 11, footage of the royals happily performing steps with the class of children has already been viewed over 250,000 times. Captioned: “The most adorable royals I’m crying,” the clip has received over 12,000 likes and over 300 comments, many of which have praised the couple and their connection with young people. “You see why I love these two, they are just so fun and relatable,” wrote one TikTok user.
“They’re genuinely having fun connecting with people. it’s just straight authenticity from these two,” posted another, with a further comment suggesting Meghan could offer her husband some coordination tips, reading: “Meghan you need to teach Harry left from right. This is so funny watching you two. After they visited with the kindergarten class, Harry and Meghan spent time with some of the academy’s older children, with the prince delivering an engaging speech on mental health.
“In some places around the world, more than you would believe, there is a stigma against mental health,” he said. “Too many people don’t want to talk about it because it’s invisible, it’s in your mind and we can’t see. It’s not like a broken leg, it’s not like a broken wrist, it is something we are still relatively unsure of. But guess what? Every single person in this room, youngest to oldest, every single person has mental health.

In addition to the school event, during the couple’s visit to Nigeria, they took part in an evening reception at the defence headquarters in Abuja, and they travelled to Lagos to watch a charity polo game.
