Prince Harry and Meghan Markle decided to make a 'bold' public appearance at an exclusive A-List club in West Hollywood following their eviction from Frogmore Cottage, it has been claimed.
The pair visited San Vicente Bungalows earlier this month, reportedly, on the same day that Buckingham Palace broke the news that they would have to vacate the property in Windsor.
Photographs from the night show the Duke and Duchess of Sussex exiting a car. Meghan, 41 was sporting a Carolina Herrera cape coat with a pair of black Christian Dior high heels, while Harry could be seen wearing a pair of jeans and a tweed jacket, as writes the Mirror.
Now, a fellow member of the exclusive club claimed the couple decided to use the public front entrance rather than the private back door in order to make a "bold" statement.
Commenting on their appearance at the club, which is located four hours away from their mansion in Montecito, a source told Page Six: "I think it was definitely a statement coming on the evening of the Frogmore news."
Earlier this month, reports began circulating that Harry and Meghan had been asked to vacate Frogmore Cottage, following the release of Harry's tell-all memoir Spare.
The couple will not renew their lease when it soon expires.
Speaking a few days after they were spotted at San Vicente Bungalows, another insider said that they were finally able to "get back to enjoying themselves again" amid the busy schedule of parenthood by making an A-List appearance.
The source said: "They've been trying to find time for more of these types of date nights, which isn't easy given their intense schedules as well as raising the kids.
"But this was something they freed themselves up for and the word is that it was important to send a message that they're not rattled or letting this Frogmore situation get to them."
