Meghan Markle and Prince Harry ‘have an attitude’ and have left people in Montecito ‘divided’, fellow residents claim

MEGHAN Markle and Prince Harry have left people in Montecito divided with their attitude, according to claims from residents.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex moved into the in California back in the summer of 2020.

The luxury mansion boasts nine bedrooms, 19 bathrooms and a separate guesthouse where Meghan’s mother Doria is believed to stay when she visits.

Sitting on 7.4 acres with spectacular views of the Pacific Ocean, it also has a private cinema, gym, spa and wine cellar as well as Archie and Lilibet’s own playground.

But local residents have now spoken about the effect the Sussexes moving had on the beachfront town, reports the .

Katie, a retired university lecturer, claims the Sussexes settling down in the celebrity-packed Montecito has left many residents “divided”.

She said: “A lot of people think, ‘yeah fun’, but a lot of people think, ‘they have got a bit of an attitude’."

She admitted that she had travelled up to the road on which the Sussex family lives, adding that locals in the area “are curious” about their famous royal neighbours.

Katie continued: “They are interested. People want to see what they are doing. They do not have bad motives.”

She “did drive by their street once”, she revealed, but “did not stop or peer in at all”.

However, another resident named Judy dismissed the Duke and Duchess as public figures she is “truly not interested” in following.

Judy added: “There are people I know who are interested and curious about what they are doing.

“But I do not have any particular need to find out more about them.”

And Dave Kanarek, a sports sale representative in Santa Barbara town, said that he has not “really heard much about Harry and Meghan” going about their lives in the local area.
