On a lighter note, Markle also revealed what she misses most about her years in the U.K. — the variety of radio stations. She admitted that her favorite was Magic FM, a choice that drew a playful reaction from Tan France, who laughed: “Magic FM. Wow! Sorry to say this publicly, but that’s such a grandma station.”

Prince Harry has previously spoken of his own struggles with time apart from their children. In his memoir Spare, he described the days following his return from Balmoral after the Queen’s death as “difficult,” recalling: “For days and days we couldn’t stop hugging the children, couldn’t let them out of our sight.”

At the time of the late Queen’s passing, Meghan remained in Windsor, after the now-King Charles asked that Harry travel to Scotland alone.

Her remarks in With Love, Meghan show just how deeply the Sussexes’ life now centers on family. For Meghan, even a few weeks without Archie and Lilibet was enough to leave her “not well,” underscoring the powerful bond at the heart of her new life in California.
