Meghan Markle might live in a sprawling Montecito mansion that looks like it came straight out of a lifestyle magazine, but when it came time to shoot her Netflix cooking and hosting show With Love, Meghan<\/em>, she didn\u2019t use her own home. Instead, she opted for a more low-key (but still gorgeous) $8 million farmhouse just down the road. And no, it wasn\u2019t because her house wasn\u2019t camera-ready. It was all about protecting her peace and her kids\u2019 nap schedule.<\/p>\n

Speaking at the TIME100 Summit in New York City, Meghan opened up about her decision and honestly? It\u2019s super relatable. With a production crew of about 80 people swarming in and out for filming, Meghan realized that having that kind of chaos in her house would totally throw off the peaceful environment she wants for her children, Archie and Lilibet. She didn\u2019t want loud equipment, constant foot traffic, and production stress messing with their routines and especially not nap time.<\/p>\n

For Meghan, keeping work and family life in separate lanes is part of her self-care. She spoke about how important it is to set boundaries, even when the world expects you to blend everything together for the sake of convenience or a picture-perfect shot. She wanted to be present as a mom and<\/em> a professional, but not at the expense of her kids\u2019 comfort.<\/p>\n

Luckily, the farmhouse owned by Montecito philanthropists Tom and Sherrie Cipolla was nearby, so she didn\u2019t have to choose between being on set and being close to home. It gave her the best of both worlds: a beautiful filming location and<\/em> a calm, quiet house for the little ones. Now that\u2019s what we call a mom win.<\/p>\n

The show itself, With Love, Meghan<\/em>, featured celebrity guests and gave viewers a peek into Meghan\u2019s life and hosting style. It\u2019s part of the multi-million dollar deal she and Prince Harry signed with Netflix. Although the show didn\u2019t hit the same high viewership numbers as their earlier project Harry & Meghan<\/em>, it still did well enough for Netflix to greenlight a second season, so clearly, they\u2019re not worried.<\/p>\n

And in case you\u2019re wondering, this isn\u2019t the first time the Sussexes skipped filming in their own home. Even their much-hyped docuseries Harry & Meghan<\/em> was filmed at another luxurious estate in Montecito, reportedly worth $30 million. Sure, they showed glimpses of their real home, like their garden and that cute \u201cArchie\u2019s Chick Inn\u201d chicken coop, but the interviews and more formal scenes were shot elsewhere.<\/p>\n

At the end of the day, Meghan\u2019s decision shows how even in a world of mega-deals, production crews, and constant scrutiny, she\u2019s still trying to do what\u2019s best for her kids. She\u2019s learning how to say no, protect her peace, and remind the world that being relatable doesn\u2019t mean being perfect, it just means having your priorities in order.<\/p>\n

So if you ever wondered why she didn\u2019t film in her luxury mansion, the answer is simple: she chose her children\u2019s calm over cameras. And honestly? That\u2019s a flex.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
