IT’S the disease that spares no one – neither princes nor prime ministers, Hollywood stars or elite athletes. Whole cities are ghost towns as a quarter of the planet’s population exists in a twilight world of lockdown, life as we knew it whisked away by an insidious illness that will change the globe forever.
And yet still it seems one couple have managed to soar above it all – and Prince Harry and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, have been criticised anew as they put the wheels of their new life into motion.
Back in Harry’s home country, the UK, things are in turmoil. His father, Prince Charles (71), has tested positive for Covid-19, as has prime minister Boris Johnson. Harry’s grandparents, Queen Elizabeth (93) and Prince Philip (98), have been spirited away to Windsor Castle where they’ll – hopefully – ride out the pandemic.
But as his compatriots applauded health workers toiling around the clock to treat the ill, Harry was packing his bags – not to come home but to make a last-minute dash to Los Angeles before the border between Canada and the US closed.
Harry (35), Meghan (38) and their son, Archie (10 months), flew out of Vancouver, where they’ve been living in a borrowed mansion since late last year, in a private plane bound for the duchess’ hometown. They’re now said to be in lockdown in an exclusive gated community in the City of Angels.
It’s no secret that moving to LA was always part of the Sussexes’ plan. Meghan’s mom, yoga instructor Doria Ragland (63), lives there, and it’s where the couple have based their new team of Hollywood agents and publicists.
