Sussex Neighbors Revolt: Prince Harry and Meghan Markle Nearby Residents 'Fed Up' With 'Faux' Royals and Tell Pair to 'Move On'
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are facing a neighborly 'firing squad' near their Montecito home as nearby residents want the couple out of the area.
Meghan Markle has received a "scathing review" from many of her and Prince Harry's nearby neighbors at the mansion in Montecito, Calif.
One nearby resident said she "cannot wait for" the Duchess "to go" while another, Navy veteran Frank McGinity, shared how the couple was cold to him as he was "turned away" by their security at the gates leading into their lavish, mysterious compound.
"Normally when you see him [Harry] around here, he’s walking his Labrador on the beach or on his bicycle followed by his security in a Range Rover," an anonymous Sussex neighbor shared.
The onlooker added, "They keep themselves to themselves. I haven’t seen Harry around much."
Further neighborly insight reveals the Duke of Sussex as the "less seen" of the two, apart from his occasional habit of bird-watching and taking Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet on "school runs." The California prince also likes to meditate for 30 to 40 minutes per day, and can sometimes be seen working out with a personal trainer.
The Duchess of Sussex is seen more frequently within the tight-knit community, where she loves to go to the farmer's market and have lunch with select friends.
However, the main takeaway from the neighbor revelations is that when it comes to Harry and Meghan's presence in the neighborhood, there is hardly anything to report — even after four-and-a-half years. Everyone reportedly knows they are behind those mansion walls, even with weeks and sometimes months passing without a single sighting.
"They live in their own fortress of sorts, with every luxury they need simply brought to them," a Hollywood insider shared. "They both have endless amounts of space to move around within, and there is no need to leave."
"During the media's open season on her last year after the so-called catastrophic car chase, Meghan spent several months barricaded in this California wonderland," they added.
Richard Mineards, society columnist for the Montecito Journal, took a closer look at what life is like for the rebel royals within the ritzy enclave.
"It's a very wealthy community, we have a lot of people giving a lot of money to our cultural organizations as well as charities, but we don’t see them [Harry and Meghan]," he told an outlet. "We have got a lot of very rich and very famous people here, and none of them have a security retinue like the Sussexes."
"The community is waiting for them — they’re gnashing at the bit. The cachet of a Duke and Duchess!" he concluded.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are also said to enjoy spending their birthdays at home in the town. Harry turned 40 on Sunday, September 15, and is believed to have inherited a large financial sum from his great-grandmother, Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother's will.
