The then-actress Meghan Markle wrote in her blog before becoming the Duchess of Sussex that her favorite country is Mexico. 

Recently, many issues are circulating in different media outlets about the royal family involving Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. It all started when they announced in the middle days of January that they are planning to step down and leave their senior royal duties.

MEXICO, THE FAVORITE COUNTRY OF MEGHAN MARKLE

Starting April 1, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle will no longer function their senior royal duties and are not obliged anymore to attend any official royal duties. However, this does not mean that Prince Harry completely abandoned U.K. because he and Meghan will divide their time both for the U.K. and Canada.

The decision of the couple also means that they will have more time to travel. Meghan Markle once wrote on her now-defunct blog The Tig, "I am often asked about my favorite places in the world, and nary a conversation occurs where I don't mention my beloved Mexico. The culture and food, the people and varied landscapes make it a favored destination of mine year after year,"  

Meghan Markle grew up in Los Angeles and traveling to Mexico is not uncommon to her anymore. The country is just so close to the place where she lived before. She also recounted her visits to Oaxaca together with her mother for the Day of the Dead in 2014.

Meghan Markle also wrote that she and her mother used to travel in Oaxaca to witness the celebration of the Day of the Dead. She also shared that she would dig for the buried treasures in the beaches of Puerto Vallarta and even catch fish in Yelapa.

TULUM MIGHT BE MEGHAN'S FAVORITE PLACE IN THE WORLD

In 2018, a news outlet listed Meghan's favorite vacation spots. The list includes Iceland, Dublin, Malta, and Tulum. According to the news outlet, Tulum was included in the list because Meghan, who is a skincare fanatic, could go in the place and have Mayan clay treatments.

Meghan Markle even wrote in her blog, "For years Tulum had been shrouded in this cool kid mystery to me - musings of yogis and movie stars finding solace in the slow pace and beautiful setting. So it was with great excitement that I took a trip to the Mayan Riviera to dip my toes in the much talked about Tulum."

"Go explore the town either on bike or foot, and take a yoga class at Yoga Shala, a hippie-dippie paradise. It's the mecca for yoga in the beach stretch of Tulum, where classes are taught throughout the day in a jungle setting so you can get your zen on," Meghan wrote in her blog.

This time that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle will have more time to travel together with their son Archie. It is also expected that they will spend some days in Mexico most especially in Tulum. 

Moreover, according to the recently published article, the father of Meghan Markle, an ex-pat, now lives in Rosario, Mexico. He spent his retirement days in an exclusive San Antonio del Mar Subdivision. 

However, there is no record or report that Meghan Markle visited her father in Mexico. But, the affection and love of Meghan Markle for Mexico could influence Prince Harry to visit the country or have the country as part of their holiday destinations.
