Hours before Meghan Markle turned 42, she stepped out for a date night with her husband, Prince Harry.

On Thursday, August 3, the Duke of Sussex, 38, and Meghan were seen departing the Italian restaurant Tre Lune in Los Angeles. Images acquired by the Daily Mail captured the couple outside the establishment, accompanied by their companion Matt Cohen.

On the verge of celebrating her birthday on Friday, August 4, Meghan looked breathtaking in a strapless Posse dress, elegantly contrasting black and white. She accessorized her outfit with a Cult Gaia handbag and black sandals. Harry, on the other hand, donned a blue button-down shirt, perfectly complementing his white trousers.

The couple recently enjoyed a pre-birthday outing, dispelling breakup rumors. According to an insider, Harry and Meghan are a united front, facing the world together. Additionally, they have faced challenges such as a dangerous car chase in New York, the termination of their Spotify deal, and Harry's ongoing lawsuit against British tabloids. Although the hacking allegations were dismissed, another court case is scheduled for early next year.

“Throughout their journey, Harry and Meghan have faced numerous challenges, but they have always managed to overcome them hand in hand,” the first source shared, emphasizing the couple's ability to navigate through the drama together.

Following their decision to step down as senior working royals in 2020 and pursue a more private life with their 4-year-old son, Prince Archie, Harry and Meghan experienced difficult times. They relocated from London to Montecito, California, and in 2021, they joyfully welcomed their daughter, Princess Lilibet, who is now 2 years old.

"It's a slight variation but a continuation of our endeavors back in the United Kingdom," Harry explained about his life in the United States during an appearance on The Late Late Show With James Corden in February 2021. "That's always going to be the focus of our lives, my life. Meghan agreed to that, and both of us derive pleasure from it. We aim to bring compassion, happiness, and make small positive changes to the world."

He further elaborated, "The environment was truly challenging, as many people witnessed. We all know how the British media can be, and it was detrimental to my mental well-being. I realized this toxicity and thought, 'I need to remove my family from this situation,' just like any responsible husband and father would. However, it's important to note that we never abandoned our responsibilities."

The family of four has now settled in California, but it was confirmed last month by Us exclusively that they were contemplating a relocation along the coast.

According to a source, they adore their life there but feel a slight sense of isolation from the city. In July, the source mentioned that Meghan has a special affinity for Malibu due to cherished childhood memories. Her love for the beach is also why she and Harry ultimately chose to reside in Montecito.

While the duo hasn’t settled on a decision just yet, the insider explains that the possibility is “definitely on their radar.”
