The Duke and Duchess of Sussex Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have not been married for even a year and yet there have already been several visible changes in Prince Harry's life and behavior.

Clearly, Prince Harry is head over heels in love with his wife and royal fans have witnessed and loved watching the relationship between Meghan and Harry strengthen as they get used to their roles as Duke and Duchess of Sussex. As reported by the Mirror, Prince Harry will not be taking part in the Royal Family's traditional Boxing Day hunt so as to not upset his wife Meghan despite participating in the event for two decades alongside his brother Prince William and his father Prince Charles.

Over the summer, Harry also sat out at the Balmoral which basically indicates that his hunting days are more or less over. This is not the only change that Prince Harry has made to keep Meghan happy and at ease, as the once 'Party Prince' has also hung up his partying shoes.

According to Daily Mail, an insider shared that when Harry took Meghan for a trip to Jamaica to celebrate his best friend Tom Inskip's wedding, the couple were reportedly the first to get to bed. Reports claim that Prince Harry has been keeping some distance from a couple of his oldest friends.

Fans have also noticed how Prince Harry's appearance has gone through some changes ever since he met Meghan. Ahead of their wedding which took place in May, Prince Harry lost some weight and slimmed down which many believe is a result of his wife's healthy diet.

It is also reported that the Duke of Sussex quit smoking when he met Meghan and gave up his habit of smoking 20 cigarettes a day.

A source shared, "Harry has promised no smoking at all at home. It's not nice for Meghan as a non-smoker. So there's no more hanging out of the window for a quick puff. Harry has quit for Meghan."

Prince Harry's dressing style too has gone through some changes and stylist Melita Latham shared with Express, "As the Royal Family changed the way Kate Middleton dressed, Meghan has influenced Prince Harry's choices. Prince Harry used to favor a more relaxed attire, with patterned shirts and jeans, and it wasn't a rare sighting to see an un-ironed shirt, whereas now his style is more polished and modern. It has been a subtle change, but it is obvious it has changed since he started dating the former actress."
