  • Meghan Markle - now known as Meghan, Duchess of Sussex - is set to experience some major life changes now that she's married into the royal family.
  • Before she wed Prince Harry, Markle's daily schedule included time to run, practice yoga, and cook meals with her royal then-boyfriend.
  • As the Duchess of Sussex, Markle now has many additional royal responsibilities and commitments.
  • But it's quite likely that she won't scrap her old routine entirely.


Meghan Markle's life has completely changed now that she's married into Britain's royal family.

As a royal, she must abide by certain rules - both official and unspoken. She is living with her new husband and 13 other royals in Kensington Palace, which has been a royal residence since the 1600s. And she's already received a number of official new titles, including a particularly odd one: "Princess Henry of Wales."

But it's unclear how much Markle's marriage to Prince Harry will alter her usual daily routine. Previously, as founder and editor-in-chief of the now-defunct lifestyle site The Tig, Markle was very open about her schedule, habits, and strategies for leading a fulfilling life.

Given her commitment to pursuits like healthy eating and yoga, it's likely that some aspects of her old routine will carry into her new life as the Duchess of Sussex.

But now that Markle is a part of the royal family, she may have to switch up some eating habits. When dining with the Queen, no one can dig in until the monarch has started eating. And everyone must stop eating when Queen Elizabeth is finished, Business Insider reported — even if half of their plate is untouched.

And now that she's the Duchess of Sussex, Markle will spend quite a bit of time traveling to various official functions.

"I give myself the luxury of downtime," Markle previously told Women's Health. "We are all so incredibly busy and juggling so many things, but I always take an hour to just decompress, watch mindless TV, snuggle with my dogs, and enjoy a glass of wine. That's all part of the investment. It's a balance."

It's not clear whether or not Markle has a typical bedtime. But, now that she's a member of the royal family, her sleep will be occasionally dependent on Queen Elizabeth. When the Duke and Duchess of Sussex stay at the Queen's house, they must stay up until she goes to bed — which is typically sometime before 11:30 p.m.
