Prince Harry and Meghan Markle considering moving to Africa

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have revealed they are considering moving to Africa, saying conservation there will become "their life's work".

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle opened up to UK journalist Tom Bradby for a new documentary called Harry and Meghan: An African Journey

The documentary focuses on the couple's 10-day tour of southern Africa. Harry voiced a desire to leave the UK one day to live in Africa.

"We've just come from Cape Town - that would be an amazing place for us to be able to base ourselves, of course it would," he says in the ITV documentary.

"But with all the problems going on there [South Africa] I just don't see how we would be able to really make as much difference as we'd want to," he continues.

He says Africa will be the focus of the couple's life work.

"The rest of our lives, especially our life's work, will be predominatly focused on Africa, on conservation."

Meghan Markle said the couple is currently "existing not living," due to media scrutiny.

The couple will take a six-week Christmas break from their royal duties, reports The Sun.

They are expected to spend their son's first Christmas in Norfolk with other members of the royal family.
