MEGHAN Markle and Prince Harry reportedly want to move closer to Hollywood, as sources claim they're planning on ditching their Montecito mansion.<\/strong><\/p>\n According to TMZ, the Royal duo are considering a move to LA after previously house-hunting in Malibu, California.<\/p>\n The Duke\u00a0and\u00a0Duchess of Sussex\u00a0were previously said to be keen to snap up a \u00a36.3 million ($8 million) plot of land in\u00a0the sunny area of Malibu, which came with a huge mansion, a pool, guard house, seating terrace and fire-pit.<\/p>\n However, it looks as if the lavish project has been put on a pause, as it was recently announced that Meghan, 42, and Harry, 39, are now taking interest in different properties around the posh LA neighbourhood.<\/p>\n The source, TMZ reported, added that the two haven't toured any houses as of yet, as the search for the perfect spot still continues.<\/p>\n Meghan and Harry currently live in a home up the coast in Montecito, with their two kids, Prince Archie, four, and his toddler sister, Princess Lilibet, two. <\/p>\n The move to LA makes perfect sense, as the couple have been attending a never-ending stream of events in Hollywood – and if they decide to settle on the mega mansion, they could become neighbours to a number of celebs, including Leonardo DiCaprio,\u00a0Paris Hilton\u00a0and\u00a0Ellen Degeneres.<\/p>\n Another reason the duo were considering making LA their new home was the issue of privacy, as well as community – both of which are at the top of the list for Meghan and her hubby.<\/p>\n However, after the duo potentially moving to Malibu hit the news all over the world, the lavish multi-million property became a magnet for paparazzi and news coverage – which, in turn, created safety concerns for the Royal couple and ultimately steered them away.<\/p>\n TMZ claimed that the Sussexes have talked about selling\u00a0the \u00a312m Montecito mansion\u00a0they purchased in June 2020.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n The sprawling nine-bed, 16-bath home in\u00a0Santa Barbara County\u00a0sits on 5.4 acres of land and boasts a library, office, spa, gym, game room, wine cellar and five-car garage, it's been said.<\/p>\n The\u00a0estate also feartures sweeping lawns, tiered rose gardens, tall Italian cypress trees, blooming lavender, olive trees, a tennis court, tea house, children's cottage and a pool.<\/p>\n But the\u00a0neighbours in the area have allegedly complained\u00a0of their presence.<\/p>\n According to TMZ, the fellow residents of the neighbourhood are said to upset by the swarms of paparazzi photographers and helicopters flying over.<\/p>\n "Most locals" have even gone as far as claiming that their \u201cmere presence is driving folks wild\u201d as a result, the site reported.<\/p>\n It is said that for the most part complaints centre around concerns that "everyone's privacy is being compromised" as a result of Harry and Meghan's presence.<\/p>\n Meghan Markle and Prince Harry first met in 2016 and tied the knot in a jaw-dropping ceremony two years later.\u00a0<\/p>\n However, in January 2020, the couple\u00a0stepped doen as senior royals\u00a0and started a new life in\u00a0California, a move that was soon dubbed\u00a0Megxit.<\/p>\n After leaving the UK, the two signed media deals with\u00a0Spotify, as well as\u00a0Netflix\u00a0– however, one of their projects, animated series Pearl, was\u00a0dumped by the streaming giant.\u00a0<\/p>\n The duo have since remained critical of the Royal Family.<\/p>\n
