The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Harry and Meghan, have offered a glimpse into their serene family life in the UK with an adorably filmed video shared on Instagram. The footage captures moments of the couple and their children enjoying various outdoor activities, including fishing, splashing in puddles, and countryside walks, following their recent relocation to the Cotswolds.
Set to the upbeat tune of Wham!’s ‘Wake Me Up Before You Go Go’, the clip features their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, engaging in playful and heartwarming scenes. Throughout the video, a Union flag and red heart emoji appear, underscoring the family’s connection to the UK.
The opening shot shows Harry and Meghan walking hand in hand. The duchess turns to the camera with an inviting smile, saying: “Come on, you, come on.” Other scenes include one of the children sitting by a warm, roaring fireplace, Lilibet wearing wellies while riding a bicycle equipped with training wheels and a doll in the rear seat, and Archie running past his sister, also clad in wellies.

Fishing scenes show Harry spending quality time with his children beside a tranquil water setting. Both Archie, aged seven, and Lilibet, five, have recently started the new school year in Britain, having moved from the United States just over two weeks prior, according to reports.
A source close to the couple revealed to a US publication that “They are happy to be back.” This marks a significant transition since Harry and Meghan stepped back from their roles as working members of the royal family six years ago, seeking personal and financial independence in the United States.
In addition to settling their children into new schools, Meghan is reportedly considering a return to acting. The family’s priority remains ensuring their children’s smooth adjustment, with one insider commenting: “Settling the children has been, and remains, their focus. Everything else will fall into place when the time is right.”
The source added that the process of moving halfway across the world has been busy but rewarding: “Their focus has been on that, and will remain on that, for the time being. They are happy to be back.”
This update provides the first authentic insight into the Sussexes’ feelings about their recent move amid ongoing tensions with the royal household. Notably, Harry and Meghan were reportedly surprised by a formal letter from the Lord Chamberlain-sent under the King’s direction-to senior government and military figures describing them as “private citizens.” The couple, who are awaiting a decision regarding taxpayer-funded security, are said to prefer the term “public figures.”
