Speaking to the Daily Mail the 69-year-old said that he arranged for Meghan and Prince Harry to stay in a remote waterfront estate in North Saanich which belonged to a close friend of his.

He said: I felt honored that I was able to help Meghan there, because I’m a Canadian and we’re a commonwealth country, we’re the Crown’s.

The mansion is reportedly worth $14 million and Foster was keen to keep the owners identity anonymous but says he was happy to help the couple.

He added: I don’t know what their next plans are, but I know that it was reinvigorating for them to spend some downtime.
