Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have reportedly purchased a vacation home in Portugal, marking a significant expansion of their real estate portfolio. This new property adds to their residence in Montecito, California, and is seen as a strategic move to facilitate easier travel to Europe and maintain family connections.
Reports suggest that the couple’s new home is located in the picturesque Melides region, known for its stunning beaches and tranquil atmosphere. This area is also home to Harry’s cousin, Princess Eugenie, and her husband, Jack Brooksbank, who have a residence in the CostaTerra Golf and Ocean Club.
The couple’s decision to invest in Portugal aligns with their desire to spend more time in Europe, especially given the shorter flight times to the U.K. compared to their California home. Average non-stop flights from Portugal to the U.K. take between 2.5 to 3 hours, making it a convenient base for family visits.
