According to multiple local media reports, the couple has recently been in a state of exhaustion due to public criticism and financial problems, which have caused strain on their marriage, and they are considering taking a trial separation.
Prince Harry and Princess Meghan have been struggling to raise funds since it was announced in June of this year that “Archetypes,” Princess Meghan’s podcast show, which started in 2020 with a $20 million contract with Spotify, would be terminated.
In addition, they have only received half of the money from Netflix, with which they had signed a contract for $100 million (approximately 14.2 billion yen), far more than Spotify, and an insider revealed, “Netflix has informed the couple that they will not pay the outstanding amount unless they produce a truly interesting program. The couple’s financial situation is becoming increasingly uncertain.
Some media outlets have pointed out that the couple is in financial trouble because of their extravagant lifestyle. The couple left the British royal family in March 2020 and moved into a $14.7 million mansion in Montecito, a luxury residential area in Santa Barbara, California, the United States. In addition, the security cost was $3.3 million.
In addition, the property tax on the mansion is approximately $70,000 per year, and Meghan’s wardrobe costs more than $70,000 per month.
A source close to the couple says, “Harry is not comfortable with Meghan’s lavish lifestyle,” and that Meghan’s desire to “maintain a lavish lifestyle as a celebrity” is one of the reasons for the rift in the couple’s relationship.
Perhaps to distance themselves from this situation, Prince Harry is planning to visit Africa on his own for a new project, and the couple is considering a trial separation to coincide with this. Another source stresses that the separation is intended to rebuild their bond.
Speaking of the couple, the shocking news that Prince Harry recently contacted his brother Prince William (41) by phone and told him that he and Meghan intend to return to London to serve the King has been reported and has created quite a stir.
However, the couple has repeatedly criticized the royal family in numerous media since they left the British royal family, and many people on social networking sites have condemned Prince Harry’s statement itself that he wants to return to the royal family.
Prince William did not give a clear reply on the spot, but the local media said, “It will be difficult to gain the understanding of the British people,” and the couple’s future is attracting attention.
