Prince Harry will never 'walk away' from Meghan Markle due to vow they made early on
Prince Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle, have both vowed that "divorce is not an option" according to a source.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle do not want to "repeat the same mistake" their parents made and have made an important vow to one another about their marriage, according to a source.
The Montecito-based duo stepped down as senior working royals in 2020 and have since been based in California with their two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.
Speaking to new magazine, a source claimed, growing up, Harry and Meghan "hated having separate parents who weren't on good terms" as they felt they were pulled in different directions.
The source revealed: "They have vowed that divorce is not an option, especially when they have such young children and they are responsible for shaping their lives."
They added: "They would never want to put Archie and Lili through any of that and they want them to have as idyllic and innocent childhood as possible."

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have been open in the past about being the parents of divorced children. In their Netflix docu-series, 'Harry and Meghan', Meghan stated it had impacted their childhood and relationships as adults.
Meghan revealed: "There's so much from anyone's childhood that you bring with you into the present, especially when you're the product of divorce."
Harry added: "Being pulled from one place to another, or maybe your parents are competitive, or you're in one place longer than you want to be, or another place less than you want to be. There's all sorts of pieces to that."
This comes despite Meghan Markle being divorced herself from her first husband, Trevor Engelson. Long before Meghan Markle said "I do" to Prince Harry, she was married to the film producer and talent manager who lived in Los Angeles.
Meghan and Trevor reportedly started dating back in 2004, and after seven years together, Markle and Engelson tied the knot in a casual ceremony in September 2011 in Jamaica.

Prince Harry, however, saw his parents separate when he was eight in 1992, but they divorced in 1996, whereas Meghan's parents, Doria Ragland and Thomas Markle, split in 1987.
On May 19, 2024, Harry and Meghan celebrated six years of marriage. While the public got to see the beautiful wedding live on television, the reception hosted by the late Queen Elizabeth II and an after-party all took place privately.
But Harry and Meghan later lifted the lid from the behind-the-scenes at their wedding when they shared never-seen-before snaps from their special day in their Netflix docuseries in December 2022.
Within two years of their historic wedding, Meghan and Harry stepped down from royal duties and relocated across the pond to the US. They then embarked on a number of media ventures with tech titans such as Netflix and Spotify, although the deal with the latter ended prematurely.
