Life in the United Kingdom certainly suits Meghan Markle.

Nearly a month after the Duchess of Sussex moved to England with husband Prince Harry and their kids Archie, 7, and Lilibet, 5, her close friend Kelly McKee Zajfen gave a peek at how the former royals are getting on in their new home.

In a picture shared to Instagram Sept. 23, Meghan and Kelly soaked up the sun while sipping wine in a garden alongside their pal Marcus Anderson. 

And in other photos, the Sussexes spent some quality time with Kelly’s 6-month-old Jack, with Meghan holding him while smiling in one pic and Harry lying on the ground as the tiny tot crawled on him in another.

Plus, Lilibet also got some snuggle time in, playing with Jack on the couch in a separate snap.

“There’s something so special about getting a taste of this magical place with my bestie, and having my sweet Jack along for the adventure,” Kelly wrote in the caption. “I’ve loved seeing this sweet chapter through her eyes and daily adventures!” 

The Alliance of Moms founder—who has been besties with the Suits alum for nearly two decades—added, “Family time is just what the heart ordered. With a side of mashed peas and fish n chips! All of it has filled my heart.”

Since moving to the U.K. last month, Meghan has kept a low profile, but Harry has confirmed how “great” it has been to return home—if only for an extended, non-permanent stay. 

“It's wonderful to be back on British soil,” he told Hello magazine in a Sept. 18 interview, “and really nice to see so many old faces and friends that came to this, and new faces as well, and new donors.”

Still, Harry noted, "The last two weeks have been—it's been eventful. We're getting stuck into the work. Kids are in school. We're happy."
