New Neighbors?

After the unexpected announcement by Prince Harry and his former actress wife Meghan Markle that they are quitting public life to spend more time in North America, the big question is where?

It will obviously include Canada where they just spent six weeks on an island near Vancouver, and the Duchess of Sussex lived in Toronto when she shot the TV series Suits, and most likely California, where Meghan’s mother, Doria Ragland, lives in the aptly named Los Angeles suburb of Windsor Hills.

The move will also mean that Harry, 35, could well become a regular at the Santa Barbara Polo Club where his good friend, club member and Ralph Lauren Polo model Nacho Figueras, is a popular figure, and another friend, former TV talk show host Oprah Winfrey, who attended the couple’s wedding at St. George’s Chapel, Windsor, lives just a tiara’s toss away in our rarefied enclave.

Montecito’s most famous resident issued a statement saying she cares about them both and supports whatever decision they make for their family.
