Reunited and it feels so good!

After spending a week in the U.K. for Prince Philip's funeral, Prince Harry is happy to be back in California with pregnant wife Meghan Markle and their 23-month-old son, Archie.

"Even though Harry and Meghan were in constant contact during the trip, Meghan is over the moon to have Harry back home," a source shared with Us Weekly.

"Archie got super excited when he saw his daddy again!" the source gushed. "He couldn’t stop smiling."

Harry touched down in the U.K. on April 12, but due to quarantine protocols, he wasn't able to interact with many people ahead of the April 17 funeral. He then returned to California on April 20, missing Queen Elizabeth II's 95 birthday celebration on April 21.

Meghan stayed home in California on doctor's orders.

The time apart wasn't easy for the Duke of Sussex, as he was worried about leaving the actress alone when "she’s so far along in her pregnancy," shared an insider, who revealed that he was "FaceTiming" Meghan and their son "every day to check in" while he was gone.

Now that the family of three is back together, they're counting down the days until Meghan gives birth to a baby girl.

According to a source, "this pregnancy has been a little easier than the last in terms of less morning sickness. Meghan is feeling much better this time around.”

The brunette beauty is practicing yoga everyday, in addition to "eating super clean," and it doesn't hurt that Harry has been going above and beyond to ensure Meghan has time to relax.
