00:00 Hello VIP scene enthusiasts! I'm Travis Cronin here at Us Weekly Magazine and you're tuned
00:05 into VIP Scene, the show where we tell you how to live, dine, and shop like your favorite
00:10 celebs.
00:15 Today we're headed out west to Montecito, California, located in Santa Barbara County
00:20 between the San Ines Mountains and the Pacific Ocean. But let's be real, we all know it
00:25 is the new-ish home place of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, since the pair said "frog
00:31 more, no more" and moved into their $14.7 million California home in 2020. When they're
00:37 not spending time in their 9 bedroom, 16 bathroom, Mediterranean-style mansion, let's see what
00:43 hot spots they hit up.
00:45 We'll never be royal, but we can pretend we are by heading to Meghan and Harry's
00:50 favorite date night spot, Tre Lune. According to photos obtained by the Daily Mail, Harry
00:55 gave Meghan the royal treatment here for her 42nd birthday celebration. The rustic restaurant
01:00 serves pizza and pasta and other Italian classics in an old-school festive dining hall. But
01:06 the Italian eatery isn't just for former royals. Travis Barker and Kourtney Kardashian
01:11 have also been spotted there getting cozy. Actor Rob Lowe lives just up the road from
01:17 Meghan and Harry and told James Corden, "He lives about a mile from me. He's been very
01:22 reclusive."
01:23 "Seeing him in the neighborhood is like seeing the Loch Ness Monster. And I finally
01:26 saw him. I finally saw him driving his car."
01:29 In another interview with E! News, Lowe claimed that Meghan and Harry were causing longer
01:34 lines at Starbucks. What a royal pain. He said, "Once the royals move into your neighborhood,
01:39 the neighborhood is never gonna be the same. The good news is property values go up. The
01:44 bad news is lines are longer at Starbucks."
01:47 Imagine waiting for your peppermint mocha latte and then hearing them yell out that
01:51 Meghan's order is ready. We know Harry and Meghan enjoy their privacy, so a good takeout
01:55 spot is key. And also, why leave home when you've got a full-size tennis court, a lap-lane
02:01 swimming pool, and a built-in children's playset for the kids?
02:07 According to People, Bettina, which is located in Santa Barbara's Countrymark, is the go-to
02:12 favorite. Its website boasts that this local hotspot is "a cozy neighborhood restaurant
02:17 honoring the roots of Italian culture and food while also being inspired by the abundant
02:22 produce and coastal vibes of Southern Cali."
02:26 Meg had a girls' lunch this past November. She and her friends dined at Pane Vino, an
02:31 upscale eatery with a romantic garden patio. They followed up lunch by shopping at Wendy
02:37 Foster, a boutique that claims to have "set the tone for style in Santa Barbara and Montecito
02:43 lifestyle. Understated, elegant, relaxed, and natural."
