Meghan Markle Makes Low‑Key Montecito Toy Run Before Easter

A quiet store visit offers a small window into the Sussexes’ everyday family life in California.

Overview

  • Markle, photographed April 1 at a family-owned toy store in Montecito, left with two large paper bags of purchases.
  • Reports say she picked up Magic Rabbit playing cards and Magic Castle Sea-Monkeys, retro toys popular from the 1960s to the 1990s.
  • She wore a casual look with a white Hermès scarf that outlets report was a gift from Prince Harry, plus a Zara trench and Loro Piana flats.
  • People quoted an anonymous source who said she was buying Easter gifts for her children and her godchildren, a claim that remains unconfirmed.
  • The trip followed Prince Harry’s March 31 speech in Washington, D.C., and came as Meghan shared an April 2 Instagram video praising Archie’s skiing.
