Prince Harry joined James Corden for an interview where he revealed a lot, including why he left the royal family.
Harry said he left the royal family because it was "destroying his mental health".
Asked by Corden how he sees his life after lockdown, Harry, 36, said: "My life is always going to be about public service and Meghan signed up to that."
On the decision to walk away from the royal family, he told Corden: "It was never walking away. It was stepping back rather than stepping down. It was a really difficult environment, as I think a lot of people saw.
"We all know what the British press can be like, and it was destroying my mental health. I was like 'this is toxic'.
"So I did what any husband and what any father would do. I was like, 'I need to get my family out of here'.
"But we never walked away and as far as I'm concerned whatever decisions are made on that side, I will never walk away.
"I will always be contributing, but my life is public service, so wherever I am in the world it's going to be the same thing."
Harry also spoke about his family during the chat with James Corden, revealing that son Archie's first word was "crocodile" and the Queen gave the one-year-old a waffle maker for Christmas.
James also asked Harry: "When did you know Meghan was the one?"
Harry said : "The second date I was starting to think this is pretty special. It was just the fact that the way we hit it off with each other, & we were just so comfortable in each others company."
Harry added that he and Meghan "got to spend an enormous amount of time just the two of us.
"There were no distractions, and that was great, it was an amazing thing. We went from zero to 60 in the first two months."
Asked what a "regular night in" for the couple is like, Harry said they may make Archie's tea, give him a bath and read him a book before he and Meghan spend time together.
At some point during the chat, James Corden, while standing outside the house used in the Fresh Prince Of Bel Air movie, made a video call to Meghan Markle and tried to convince her that they should live in the "Fresh Prince of Bel Air" house since she is a Princess. But Meghan said she's done enough moving.
Meghan then called Harry "Haz" and asked how his tour of Los Angeles was going, and Harry said Corden was "the worst tour guide in LA".
When James Corden asked if he gets to call Harry the same pet name, Harry told him that he's not Meghan.
