For a solo charity appearance, Prince Harry sat in a corner of the house in front of a tall leafy plant. During a solo appearance on America's Got Talent, Meghan gave fans a glimpse at a perfectly decorated room in the house. Behind the couch, fans spotted a Diptyque candle, a bouquet of hydrangeas, and a stack of coffee-table books. Much like the rest of the world, Meghan and Harry have found themselves spending more time at home than ever during the COVID-19 pandemic. In August 2020, a source told Us Weekly that, while they could've asked Prince Charles for financial help, Meghan and Harry decided to purchase their new home independently.
Taylor Swift Makes Chart History With ‘The Tortured Poets Department’
The interview was originally rumored to have been filmed at Harry and Meghan’s Montecito house, but Oprah confidante and “CBS This Morning” host Gayle King told reporters the interview was shot at “a friend’s house,” according to the Daily Mail. The home is also near their known celebrity friends, Ellen DeGeneres and, of course, Winfrey, who courted the ex-royals for years to land the interview. The mansion is gorgeous, but viewers were most interested in the family’s chicken coop, which has a sign that reads, “Archie’s Chick Inn. Established 2021.” Harry can be seen feeding their chickens, which were rescued from a factory farm, in a recorded clip played during the interview. Fans got a tiny sneak peek at their new house in a webcam call this summer, revealing cream walls, dark window frames and some plants, Page Six previously reported. The nine-bedroom, 16-bathroom mansion is home to Harry, Meghan, their 1-year-old son, Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor, and soon, a new daughter, who is expected this summer, Markle revealed in the interview.

The “As It Was” singer opened up pre-orders for Harry’s House on his site earlier this season. Pre-orders included everything from exclusive vinyl editions in sea glass green, to deluxe editions and box sets featuring a tee and cassette tape. But now, much of the inventory on Styles’ site appears to be sold out for the time being, though you can already find some of the deluxe editions and box sets selling on eBay here. The set launches with the largest streaming week ever for an album and marks her 14th No. 1, tying her for the most among soloists.

With 1.914 million sold, The Tortured Poets Department is instantly the top-selling album of 2024, year-to-date. The second-biggest selling album, counting weekly sales from January through the present, is Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter, with 228,000 copies sold in total. The previous weekly record belonged to Swift’s release from last October, “1989 (Taylor’s Version),” which sold 693,000 copies in a seven-day period. The most popular vinyl LP of the year thus far has been officially determined to be Harry Styles’ most recent album, ‘Harry’s House’. The third solo album by the former member of ‘One Direction’ was released in May and includes the record-breaking Number One hit ‘As It Was’. Walmart has both records and CD editions of the upcoming album available to purchase online ahead of the release date.

This time, though, he’s converting arena venues into Harry’s House as he performs songs from his new record in just a few cities. Swift announced the album during the Grammy Awards on Feb. 4, and her official webstore began accepting pre-orders for the project that same day. The set was released on April 19, alongside its first single, “Fortnight,” featuring Post Malone. As expected, Taylor Swift’s The Tortured Poets Department makes a gigantic debut at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart (dated May 4), securing the superstar her 14th chart-topping album. She ties Jay-Z for the most No. 1s among soloists in the nearly-70-year history of the chart. Styles overtook Elton John’s 1997 song ‘Candle In The Wind ‘(which spent 14 weeks at Number One) to become the longest-reigning British musician to have a single tune at the top of the charts last month.

The new May 4, 2024-dated chart will be posted in full on Billboard‘s website on April 30. For all chart news, follow @billboard and @billboardcharts on both X, formerly known as Twitter, and Instagram. It’s possible that there were albums that sold more than 700,000 vinyl copies in a week back in the ’60s, ’70s or early ’80s, when LPs were the dominant format for consumption of music, but that data wasn’t being collected then.

The trio were captured in front of a sweet playhouse, which was surrounded by a luscious green garden. During a video chat with the charity Smart Works, Meghan showed another area of her Montecito home. The duchess sat in front of a gorgeous stone fireplace, which displayed a vintage print of a bear holding the state of California. Industry observers who cheer vinyl becoming the dominant sales format again will have their eyes eagerly set on just how high “Tortured Poets” will go when it gets to seven days of sales being tallied and not just three. Styles has converted 60,000 copies of ‘Harry’s House’ to vinyl since its release, more than any other LP this year, according to the Official Charts Company. One of the most coveted vinyl versions is this Harry’s House Target exclusive, which comes in translucent yellow.

In any case, there’s no one else who has come even close to Swift’s opening LP numbers over the last 33 years. The idea that pop superstars are the kings and queens of the vinyl market is still a fairy recent phenomenon in the modern age of LPs. Ten years ago, in June 2014, it was rocker Jack White who was making headlines for setting a new record for the most vinyl sales of a title in a week. The record then was broken by his second solo album, “Lazaretto,” which blew everyone’s minds by selling a first-week grand total of 40,000 LPs. Of course, the Swift album is benefitting from a significant portion of Swifties buying multiple copies of variants.
Later this summer, Styles will take the Harry’s House songs on the road in support of the new album. The Love on Tour 2022 schedule, which kicks off in August, includes stops in Toronto, Madison Square Garden in New York City, Austin, Chicago, and wraps up in Los Angeles. Here’s everywhere else you can buy the official editions of Harry’s House online, from CDs to special-edition vinyl releases. Their new life is anchored in their 18,000-square-foot modern house in Montecito, California, which the pair purchased for $14.65 million this summer. For Christmas 2020, Meghan and Harry released a unique portrait taken with their son, Prince Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor.
While making a surprise video appearance while introducing her longtime friend and photographer, Misan Harriman, for a TED Talk, Meghan seemed to give a small glimpse into a new space from her and Harry's Montecito home. The duchess sat in a room with a wide wall behind her, with half of the wall covered by tall white cabinets and the other half covered by thick white shelves. On the shelves were various picture frames and a long leafy plant that hung off the edge. Meghan and Harry sat in front of their bird nest prints from Barloga Studios for the TIME100 Talks. Behind them, viewers spotted a selection of books, some fresh foliage, a candle, and a decorative stone. During a joint video call in which the couple spoke with activist and Nobel Prize winner Malala Yousafzai, three bird nest prints were visible behind the couple's couch.
The Billboard 200 chart ranks the most popular albums of the week in the U.S. based on multi-metric consumption as measured in equivalent album units, compiled by Luminate.
