Meghan Markle unveils hidden detail of $15m Montecito mansion that everyone missed

Meghan Markle upped and moved back Stateside in 2020 alongside her husband Prince Harry after the couple decided to step away from life in the UK and their duties as senior members of the royal family.

However, four years, a memoir and a Netflix documentary later, it seems the Duchess of Sussex is putting her head above the parapet once again as she recently launched a fresh Instagram account teasing the launch of her new lifestyle brand, American Riviera Orchard.

Meghan, 42, shared a promotional video for the venture, which featured the Duchess arranging flowers in a vase and baking, but there was one snippet of the video that unveiled a corner of their stunning mansion in Montecito that everyone missed.

The clip, seen below in the full video shared by American Riviera Orchard – a nod to their home in Santa Barbara – shows the mother-of-two walking through the sprawling hallway surrounded by exposed brick in a long, black gown.

The video was filmed using an old Hollywood-like filter, adding a touch of style and an early 20th-century feel to the clip, keeping in line with the classic feel of the brand itself.

Meghan and Harry’s walkway leads out onto the garden, which can be seen in the background of the video. The couple are lucky to bask in the Californian weather constantly, meaning they don’t need an outside door to take them onto the sprawling land.

But the walkway’s entrance doors are glass, meaning light and sunshine can pour through from the other direction into the house. We also love the hanging light draped from the wooden-beamed ceilings, no doubt offering a spotlight after the sun has set.
