She was reportedly seen at a local pub with friends Ellen DeGeneres and her wife, Portia de Rossi, and at the exclusive Soho Farmhouse earlier this month.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, much of the media attention so far has been about the Duke and Duchess\u2019 two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet. Harry and Meghan pulled their children out of their new UK school after only two days, citing security reasons.<\/p>\n<div id=\"newsner-a2cd5155a74c2bbcf0eb1d80690b039e\" class=\"newsner-a2cd5155a74c2bbcf0eb1d80690b039e newsner-incide_content_once\"><\/div>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A spokesperson for the couple said they made the decision \u201cfollowing a discussion with the family\u2019s security team about the practicalities of their current arrangements.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Later, reports suggested an incident involving the convoy, which was reportedly split up during the school run, drove the decision. The disruption allegedly left the cars \u201clike sitting ducks\u201d on the road.<\/p>\n<div id=\"newsner-db4c9cd0e3c01a24e0c6a8649d09f4dc\" class=\"newsner-db4c9cd0e3c01a24e0c6a8649d09f4dc\"><\/div>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not long after, it was revealed that parents were surprised by Harry and Meghan\u2019s decision, not least because they thought the former royals would have known that it takes time to get to school.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-meghan-s-uk-neighbors-furious-over-her-demand-for-special-treatment\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Meghan\u2019s UK neighbors\u2019 furious over her demand for \u2018special treatment\u2019<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cParents at the school are completely baffled.

It\u2019s the first official review the couple have gotten since leaving royal life behind in 2020.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Time will tell whether Harry and Meghan settle in the Cotswolds.
