"They are besotted and very sweet with each other," the source said.
Unsurprisingly, Harry and Meghan are focused on the thing that matters most to them—their nine-month-old son, Archie Harrison.
"Archie is the priority," a friend of the couple's told People. "It’s very much still about taking care of him and putting the family first. He’s a happy kid—he loves to laugh. Archie and Harry have such a good time together. And Meghan is a great mom. She’s very much about tending to him. They are trying to live their life as regular parents."
Of course, Archie isn't getting all of Harry and Meghan's attention. They're also reserving plenty of love for their furbabies.
"They are real homebodies who love to chill out with Archie and the dogs," the source said.
