The black-and-white photo shows Harry in the garden of their large California home with his children, Archie and Lilibet. Meghan posted it on Instagram shortly after their court loss.
Respecting their wish to keep their children’s privacy, only the backs of the kids are shown in the picture.
Jennie Bond, former BBC royal correspondent, told The Mirror that the photo spoke volumes: “I think the recent post of Harry walking away with his two children shows he’s leaving his old life behind for good.
“And I doubt anyone in the UK will be sending anniversary wishes to California.”
Bond also believes that although Harry and Meghan have ‘burned their bridges’ with the royal family, they’ve come out stronger and closer as a couple.
“Whatever happened and whoever is to blame, what they’ve been through has probably made their relationship stronger.”
They’ve definitely distanced themselves from their own families, so after burning so many bridges, they have no choice but to depend on each other even more.
That’s a heavy burden to carry, but I imagine it also gives them extra motivation to put effort into their marriage and ensure it succeeds.
I doubt they spend much time dwelling on the conflicts with their families.
