Meghan Markle will walk away from Prince Harry as marriage crumbles, says royal biographer
UK, ENGLAND: The marriage of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle is reportedly on the verge of collapse, according to a royal biographer who has written extensively about the British monarchy. Angela Levin, who interviewed Harry for her book 'Harry: Conversations with the Prince', told Sky News Australia that she believes Meghan will soon walk away from the relationship.
Levin cited several reasons for her prediction, including the couple's decision to quit their royal duties and move to the US, which she said has caused a lot of stress and tension for Harry. She also claimed that Meghan has become more distant and independent from Harry, leaving him alone to deal with his past issues and legal battles.
'I think the marriage is very nearly finished'
"I think the marriage is very nearly finished, and it will be ... she will sort of walk away," Levin said on the Paul Murray Live podcast². "It's very interesting because initially, she held one hand with one of her hands, and her other hand would be holding his arm so that he couldn't move more than a few inches away from her. And she was really there hanging on to him. But now, she doesn't go where he goes. They're just sort of separated."
Levin added that Meghan has hired a new PR person and is focusing on her own projects and interests, such as her lifestyle blog The Tig and her fashion choices. She contrasted this with Harry's negative state of mind and his attacks on the media and the royal family. "She's got her new PR person, she goes around in a gold dress, she's hoping to do her tig again - sort of suggestions on what you should buy or how you should live - and she's doing all those things while Harry is in the past, is in a very negative state and he's attacking everybody trying to get people to give him money. In court, accusing them of saying all sorts of things, and it's very, very sad," Levin said.
'He has definitely found his place and is very settled in California'
However, Levin is not the only one who has expressed doubts about the couple's marriage. Other sources have also suggested that Harry is unhappy and longing for his home in the UK. A former friend of Meghan told Hindustan Times that Harry is torn between his new life in California and his roots in Britain. "He has definitely found his place and is very settled in California, but he misses his home," the source said.
Harry and Meghan are facing financial troubles
Moreover, some reports have indicated that Harry and Meghan are facing financial troubles due to their failed deals with Spotify and Netflix. The couple signed a $20 million contract with Spotify to produce podcasts, but they only delivered 12 episodes in two and a half years. Spotify executive Bill Simmons slammed them as "f****** grifters!" on his own podcast. Similarly, their $100 million deal with Netflix is also rumored to be in jeopardy due to their lack of content.
'Being branded con men or scammers is devastating to Harry'
These challenges have reportedly damaged Harry and Meghan's reputation and credibility in the industry. Palace sources told RadarOnline that being branded as con men or scammers is devastating to their ambitions and aspirations. "Being branded con men or scammers is devastating to Harry and Meghan's quest for global domination and Hollywood A-list status. It puts other companies on notice the Sussexes may not be all they claim!" the sources said. Just a few weeks after Harry criticized the Royal Family in his memoir Spare, which was released in January, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex were requested to remove their remaining things from their UK residence adjacent to Windsor Castle.
Crown Estate property was their final surviving presence in the UK
Since they currently reside in California, the cottage, which the couple renovated and is a Crown Estate property, was their final surviving presence in the UK. The cottage was originally a gift to the couple from Harry's grandmother, the late Queen Elizabeth II.
Sir Michael Stevens, the keeper of the Privy Purse, spoke during the annual Sovereign Grant account briefing on royal finances. "We can confirm that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have vacated Frogmore Cottage. We will not be going into any detail on those arrangements here." He added, "Safe to say that, as has previously been stated, the duke and duchess have paid for the expenditure incurred by the Sovereign Grant in relation to the renovation of Frogmore Cottage, thus leaving the Crown with a greatly enhanced asset." Reportedly Prince Andrew has been offered the cottage, but, Sir Michael didn't reveal the information, saying, "We will not be discussing any details of the duke's private lease arrangements here today."
