Meghan Markle has offered a personal glimpse into her family’s new chapter in Britain, reflecting on a year filled with change, motherhood and unexpected adventures.
The Duchess of Sussex, 45, shared the heartfelt message in the 2026 holiday catalog for her lifestyle brand, As ever, describing everything from quiet evenings with Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet to building her business and embracing a different way of life.
But one phrase stood out: her reference to an “autumn of new adventures,” which comes just months after she and Prince Harry returned to the UK with their children.

In her message, Meghan looked back on the moments that made 2026 particularly meaningful.
“This year has reminded me how much joy can be found in the moments that make up a life,” she wrote.
She recalled “evening snuggles” with her children, gathering harvest baskets for friends, spending time in the garden and working on the details of her growing business.
The duchess also described a summer of laughter, wine and melting ice cream cones before mentioning the family’s autumn adventures.
“All of it has mattered. All of it has felt meaningful,” she added.
Although Meghan did not explicitly identify the move in her message, the reference follows the Sussex family’s return to Britain in August after six years based in California.
Prince Harry Reveals How Archie and Lilibet Are Adjusting
Harry, 42, recently explained that giving Archie, seven, and Lilibet, five, the opportunity to experience British life was an important reason for relocating.
Speaking to GQ, the Duke revealed that both children had enrolled in a British school and were enjoying the experience.
“They’re loving it, and it’s just giving them a whole different experience,” he said.
Harry emphasized the importance of allowing his children to grow up understanding both British and American cultures.
He also acknowledged that spending more time near his family and returning to British soil for longer periods influenced the decision.
The Sussexes have established a private base in Britain while retaining properties in California and Portugal.
Meghan’s As Ever Business Enters a New Chapter

Despite the move, Meghan continues overseeing As ever from overseas, while the couple’s Archewell Productions and Archewell Philanthropies remain based in the United States.
Her latest holiday collection includes an Advent calendar inspired by the family’s Montecito home, alongside candles, gift baskets, a teapot and matching cup set, stationery and other seasonal products.
In her catalog message, Meghan encouraged people to appreciate both major celebrations and smaller family traditions.
She also thanked customers for welcoming As ever into their homes and celebrations.
“We never take that for granted,” she wrote, signing the note, “As ever, Meghan.”

The family has also shared glimpses of its new British surroundings, including footage of countryside walks, children riding bicycles and rainy-day adventures.
More recently, Harry and Meghan reportedly spent the children’s half-term school break holidaying with close family and friends.
After a year of major changes, Meghan’s holiday message suggests that her priorities remain closely connected to family, home and the everyday experiences she hopes her children will remember.
And as the Sussexes settle into their new life in Britain, the duchess appears determined to make those smaller moments just as meaningful as the major milestones.
