Why did they leave the UK?
The Sussexes stepped back as senior royals in 2020, citing a desire for financial independence and privacy from intense media scrutiny. This move, dubbed 'Megxit', meant they no longer carried out official duties or received public funds. They now reside in California, where Meghan continues her work, including her recent MasterChef appearance.
