CALIFORNIA DREAMIN': A PALACE FIT FOR A PRINCE

THE DUKE AND DUCHESS OF SUSSEX ARE ENJOYING LIFE IN LOS ANGELES AND LIVING IN A PALATIAL MANSION

-  MICHELLE GARNET

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are enjoying a life of luxury over 5,000 miles from the UK, as fresh speculation over their departure surfaces.

Harry, Meghan and their one-year-old son Archie have spent the last few months hunkered down at the £14.5million Beverly Hills mansion of American actor Tyler Perry.

The eight-bedroom villa is in the exclusive Beverly Ridge gated community, where Mark Wahlberg, Sylvester Stallone and Rod Stewart all own properties. Set in 22 acres, with views over Los Angeles, it’s relatively private but workmen were still spotted erecting screens to keep prying eyes at bay.

There’s a library where Meghan and Harry can make Zoom calls and a large kitchen, which is perfect for foodie Meghan. One of the 12 bathrooms looks more like a Grecian spa, and even has a sunken bath. Archie, meanwhile, will feel at home in the nursery originally designed for Tyler’s son Aman, now five.
