Meghan Markle and Prince Harry plan to press pause on their royal duties after facing intense public scrutiny, especially from the media, in recent weeks.

The couple is set to take a six-week sabbatical for family time beginning in November, according to The Sunday Times , dividing their break between the United States and the United Kingdom over the holidays.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex reportedly plan to take their five-month-old son, Archie, to his mothers homeland for the first time, celebrating Thanksgiving as a family with Meghans mother, Doria Ragland, in California.

The trio will then journey back across the pond for Christmas, which theyll spend with Queen Elizabeth II and the rest of the royal family at her Sandringham estate in Norfolk, England.
