Harry and Meghan’s £11million California mansion is apparently engulfed by a foul smell leaving neighbours ‘disgusted’, it has emerged.

The duke and duchess’ headache is said to have been caused by the nearby Andrée Clark Bird Refuge, a 42-acre saltwater marsh. The area is one of the largest wildlife refuges in Santa Barbara and the water can become ‘stagnant’ leading to an odour.

The foul stink is said to have hit the area in Montecito, which is also home to Oprah Winfrey, Ellen DeGeneres, Orlando Bloom and Katy Perry.

A local resident told the Mirror: ‘It smells like offal that has been rotting in the sun. It makes my stomach churn. I’ve seen lots of homeowners closing their windows when it wafts over.’

Local officials say the stench could last as long as the autumn, when improvements are in the pipeline. Cameron Benson, clean water manager for the City of Santa Barbara, said: ‘Water can become stagnant there. The odour issues are sporadic and sometimes they are worse in some conditions.’

Harry and Meghan have had to contend with odour issues in the past. Last year, it was reported the royals were living near a legal cannabis factory base in Santa Barbara.

It’s not the birds making the stench, it’s the stagnant water from the riparian area. If anything, the birds are offended by their human neighbors.

The “z” is in the middle of that because I wish I could be snoozing through their shenanigans.

Boo hoo. I know people who live a few blocks from a pig farm, and people who used to live near a primate “sanctuary.”

They don’t/didn’t have the means to pick up and go elsewhere.

(I believe the “sanctuary” folded, or moved to a different location.)

Harry and family have the wherewithal to go anywhere they please...I only hope they don’t move to my neighborhood. They attract pests of the journalistic persuasion and that would be quite a nuisance.

They move in knowing that the ‘pig’ farm is near by
and start with the ‘PIG FARM MUST GO’ crap?

Go back to your own hole!

Two great pieces of real estate advice: never buy an unfixable defect (like near a freeway) and buy the cheapest house you can find in the best neighborhood. Chronic odor is pretty much an unfixable defect.

The smell of weed is awful here in CA now everywhere—unless you enjoy the smell of skunk.

Not a prince. Not a duke. Not a princess. Titles of the monarchy are explicitly forbidden. “No title of nobility......”
Read it. Us Constitution.

I was typing that and adding Vagisil for good measure but then thought I’d check to see if there were other wise guys on here. Yup!
