A recent report claims that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s luxurious multimillion-dollar Portugal home is still incomplete, which is a fresh blow for the exiled former royals.
According to a report last month, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex spent $4.7 million on one of 300 homes at the 722-acre CostaTerra Golf and Ocean Club, which is located roughly 81 miles south of Lisbon.
The expansive property is still not ready for occupancy and will only be utilised by the couple as a vacation residence. The villa in Portugal is primarily an investment, and construction is still ongoing, as quoted in a report by The New York Post.
The purchase was made more as a vacation getaway and a way for them to invest their money to safeguard their assets than as a new house.
