Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s financial situation may be in jeopardy, and an expert on the British royal family has now weighed in on the matter.
Speaking to the Mirror UK, royal expert and author Tom Quinn offered his take on how the couple are managing away from royal responsibilities. “Harry and Megan certainly have enough money for now to carry on with their Royal lifestyle in America, but the launch of the new brand suggests that they are aware that the money is disappearing fast,” Quinn said, referring to Markle’s new lifestyle brand, American Riviera Orchard. “They live among mega-rich celebrities in Montecito, and Meghan is determined to live as they live.”
Quinn went on to note how the cancer battles that Harry’s father, King Charles III, and sister-in-law, Kate Middleton, might impact plans. “The idea they might have to make choices about what they can and cannot afford fills the couple with horror,” he said. “This is why whatever happens to Kate and King Charles, the new brand will not be neglected.”
“Meghan will be trying to find a way to continue with her new brand, but in a less full-on manner than she might’ve attempted had Kate not announced her illness,” Quinn continued, “we will see less of Harry too as the brand launches because he is a reminder that all is not well in the couple’s relationship with Kate and King Charles at such a difficult time.”
