Flash forward 18 months and the couple – who stepped back as senior working royals in January 2020 – are now permanently based in California after buying their £11m “forever” Montecito mansion last summer.

And although royal fans never know exactly what happened on the pair’s Canadian holiday, the upcoming movie Harry & Meghan: Escaping The Palace will attempt to shed light on their difficult conversations.

Earlier this year, Jordan Dean and Sydney Morgan were pictured filming the Lifetime TV production on a beach in Canada.

In true Meghan style, Sydney was spotted in a pair of black gym leggings and a hoodie as she held hands with her on-screen husband.

What’s more, the Sydney’s outfit is incredibly similar to what Meghan wore for a beach walk with Archie in a clip that was released during the couple’s bombshell Oprah interview in March.

However, the actress was seen sporting a prosthetic baby bump – suggesting that they were filming scenes set earlier this year when Harry and Meghan announced they were expecting a baby girl.

Meanwhile, the costume department also nailed Prince Harry’s attire.

During his new mental health series The Me You Can’t See, the Duke donned a grey hoodie, a baseball cap, and shorts as he took a walk on a beach near his home.

For the scene with his on-screen wife, Jordan sported a near-identical version of this outfit – but more catered for the warmer weather.

Meanwhile, Laura Mitchell and Steve Coulter have also returned to play Kate Middleton and Prince William.

And the film’s casting department have even hired two dogs to play the couple’s beloved pets.

After filming the couple’s intense conversations by the water, Jordan then threw balls for the delighted dogs.
