She told The Cut: “One of the first things my husband saw when we walked around the house was those two palm trees.

“See how they’re connected at the bottom? He goes, ‘My love, it’s us.'”

Meghan then sweetly revealed the nicknames their son Archie has given them.

She added: “And now every day when Archie goes by us, he says, ‘Hi, Momma. Hi, Papa.'”

Meghan and Harry live in Montecito, California with their children.

They moved to the United States in 2020 after stepping back from their senior royal roles.

The couple welcomed their son Archie in May of 2019.

Meanwhile, their daughter Lilibet Diana – named after the Queen and Harry’s late mother Princess Diana – was born in June 2021.

Harry and Meghan rarely open up about their children but when they do, it’s usually something sweet.

Prince Harry recently spoke about his kids ahead of the 25th anniversary of Diana’s death.

Harry lost his mother when he was just 12 years old in 1997.

After playing in the 2022 Sentebale ISPS Handa Polo Cup, the duke made an emotional confession about his children.

Speaking about the anniversary, Harry said: “I want it to be a day to share the spirit of my mum with my family, with my children, who I wish could have met her.”
