A three-bedroom house where Meghan Markle lived while starring in the TV series Suits is now back up for grabs, where she and then-boyfriend Prince Harry first began their relationship.

The double-storey house in Toronto — where the hit TV show was filmed — is a charming violet hue with a turquoise front door and an A-framed roof.

It features a front porch and a driveway leading to a two-car garage, and is up for grabs for just over $2m (C$1.895m), according to Realtor.

The Duchess of Sussex, a former actor, lived in the rented in Seaton Village with her two dogs until 2017, while filming the show and dating Prince Harry, who visited Toronto often, under the radar.

Harry described visiting the Toronto house for the first time in his autobiography.

“Meg was excited to show me her life, her dogs, her little house, which she adored,” he wrote in the book, titled “Spare”.

The couple were in Toronto when they heard that the press had discovered they were dating, according to “Finding Freedom,” a 2020 biography about the couple, which Markle contributed to.

The news caught them off guard and they had to act quickly, according to the book.

“There were only a couple of paparazzi in Toronto, but it wouldn’t be long before photographers flew in from New York and L.A., all hoping to get that first picture of the happy couple.”

Markle lived in the house until the couple made their engagement official in November 2017. She then moved to her far more opulent digs, Kensington Palace in London.

The Toronto property was listed for sale less than a month later for C$1.39m and quickly sold.

The open-house drew many interested royal gossips, along with some serious buyers, according to the selling agent at the time.

“I don’t feel like we’re going to see a princess premium,” Alex Beauregard told the Toronto Star

“Would you pay an extra C$20,000 because the prince used this washroom?”

Located on a quiet block, the home is not too far from the Bay Adelaide Center in downtown Toronto, which served as the home of the fictional law firm in Suits where Markle’s character, Rachel Zane, was a paralegal.
