But where exactly do they plan to go once they step away from their current home base of Frogmore Cottage in Windsor (which they plan to keep as a residence for the foreseeable future)? While it’s too soon to tell, royal experts have a number of hypotheses about where they may land with 7-month-old Archie in tow — both stateside and in the Commonwealth country of Canada. PEOPLE’s four best guesses, in no particular order? The Canadian cities of and Vancouver Island, and and in the United States. It’s no secret that Meghan, 38, and Harry, 35, have history with the North American country of Canada, in which is its largest city (though not the capital — that’s Ottawa!). Canada is part of the Commonwealth, a group of nations with close ties to the Crown. Meghan is comfortable in , having called it home for years while she filmed her hit legal drama Suits, and she was living there when she and Harry first began dating. In fact, the couple’s first public appearance together was in support of Harry’s Invictus Games in in 2017. Image zoom After spending plenty of time there while dating, Meghan and Harry have many close friends in the area, such as Jessica Mulroney, a stylist married to Canadian television host Ben Mulroney, who is former Canadian Prime Minister Brian Mulroney’s oldest son. Look-alike pals Meghan and Jessica have been close for years — with Jessica hosting Meghan’s baby shower and her kids walking in the royal wedding — and a scroll through Mulroney’s Instagram shows the pair jetting off on beach getaways, striking silly poses in a Soho House photo booth, supporting the Blue Jays baseball team and generally adoring each other’s company.

Meghan grew up in sunny California — born, raised and educated in L.A. — so there’s no doubt the city feels like a home to her. Beyond that, Meghan’s mother, Doria Ragland, is a social worker and yoga instructor in L.A., and the mother-daughter duo are said to have a very close relationship. It would therefore be unsurprising if Meghan wanted to move to L.A. out of a desire to be closer to her mother and allow her son Archie to grow up closer to his maternal grandmother — if only for part of the year.

She likes her neighborhood and
