The former royal couple were spotted getting off the plane on October 16. They were greeted by customs and border patrol officers as they left the tarmac. Meghan looked fresh and healthy after her vacation. She was ready for Atlanta’s cool weather by wearing a black long-sleeved maxi dress, brown flats and a blue scarf.

The 42-year-old Duchess wore sunglasses, her hair in a messy bun, and carried a souvenir bag emblazoned with the words “Cream of the Islands” and held a sun hat. Meanwhile, Harry carried a leather bag, wore a white polo shirt, olive khaki pants and suede shoes, and a black baseball cap.

The Sussexes’ two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, were not seen at the airport, further fueling speculation that Harry and Meghan were on a private vacation in the Caribbean. It is unclear whether the couple were in Atlanta for work or pleasure. The Georgia city is home to Meghan’s close friend Tyler Perry, who owns several studios.

Harry and Meghan have been enjoying a few quiet days on Canouan Island after a busy week of attending the Invictus Games in Germany and the Archewell Foundation’s first live event for World Mental Health Day. The pair were spotted walking hand in hand on the cobblestoned walkways by the marina in Glossy Bay on Saturday, according to the Mail . In keeping with the island’s reputation as a place for billionaires, Meghan wore a $6,600 dress by French fashion house Chloé. She also carried a $1,560 St. Louis PM tote bag by Goyard.

“The couple looked happy. As Harry walked out of the shop, he slightly bumped into one of the boxes outside and they both giggled. Then Meghan reached out and held her husband’s hand. They seemed very happy to be on holiday together,” the source told the Mail .

Meghan and Harry shopped at Faye, a luxury grocery store that bills itself as offering “fresh, seasonal organic produce, from vegetables to cheeses, sweets, seafood and exclusive meats” imported from France. After browsing the shelves, the couple walked along a bougainvillea-lined walkway before boarding a luxury boat that took them to the northern coast of Canouan.

Canouan is less than 5 km wide but is known as a place for the super rich. In addition to Harry – Meghan , stars who are fans of this paradise island include Robert Downey Jr, Leonardo DiCaprio and George – Amal Clooney.
