Meghan Markle and husband Prince Harry make time for one-on-one time every day to keep their romance alive.
“Life is full of surprises. I did not expect to meet H and for this to be our love story. I’m very lucky,” Meghan, 43, said on the Thursday, March 6, episode of The Drew Barrymore Show. “I’m married to the funniest, sweetest, most charming [man]. He’s all the things that you’re describing and he’s an amazing father. I count my blessings because I have him and also I have a partner who is so supportive of me.”
Before Meghan tied the knot with Harry, 40, in 2018, she recalled receiving a piece of advice about her love life that stuck with her years later.
“I was a babysitter [and] nanny for two Irish-Catholic families when I was in college and one of the dads said to me, he’s like, ‘Meghan when you meet your person one day, I want him to say to you the same thing that I said to my wife when we got married which is, I vow to always date my wife,” she said. “And I told H that when we started dating and he goes, ‘I vow to always date you.’”
She continued, “We have this connection, I think, because we’re so committed to treating each other the same way you did before you had a ring on it, before it was locked down — when you’re just courting each other and you can see all the good and joy in that butterfly period. And that’s, I think, what keeps things really alive. I think it’s part of your love language. It’s how you communicate without saying a word. You just show up for each other in the ways big and small.”
Meghan gushed that the couple — who are parents to son Archie, 5, and daughter Lilibet, 3 — “love doing school drop-off and pick up for the kids.”
“We make it a point — at least, I don’t know, during the week, our days are busy with meetings — but we have lunch together every day and have that middle of the day catch up of, ‘What’s been going on?’ [and] ‘How are your meetings?’ [And] ‘OK great, back to it,’” she said. “We just make it a point to date each other. It’s felt amazing, honestly. It’s felt just so amazing and fun, just showing up.”

The pair make it a priority to support each other, and their family while away — like Meghan is now, while promoting Netflix’s With Love, Meghan.
“I’ll always pack a really thin book and I’ll videotape myself reading it so that Papa can say, ‘Here’s Mama reading your bedtime story,’” she said. “You find ways to show up for each other. If that’s the one thing that I can convey through the show, or As Ever as a brand, I want people to know you can show up for each other because you know how good it feels when someone show up for you.”
