Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are allegedly spending out of control even though they are no longer making much.
According to In Touch Weekly, the spending has become so uncontrollable that the royal couple is at risk of going bankrupt.
An unnamed source told the tabloid that Markle is the one encouraging Prince Harry to spend a lot. For instance, they are staying at an $18 million mansion owned by Tyler Perry when they’re just three in the family.
After the Canadian government allegedly revealed that they spend $700 a day on Prince Harry and Markle’s security expenses, the public was shocked by the amount. However, those close to the couple aren’t surprised.
“They are spending, spending, spending. There’s no way they need that huge mansion just for them, but it’s what Meghan wanted,” the source said.
The insider also claimed that Prince Harry and Markle signed a two-year lease on a Cotswolds home. Which means that they have more houses than Prince William and Kate Middleton.
According to the source, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are spending so much money because the funds aren’t coming solely from them. Prince Charles has allegedly been shouldering a huge chunk of Prince Harry and Markle’s expenses.
“Prince Charles is covering a lot of it because he wants Harry to be happy. If money actually can buy happiness, that should do it!” the source said.
However, one should take the claims made by the tabloid with a grain of salt. Prince Harry and Markle aren’t spending beyond their means. And if they are, it’s no one else’s business but theirs.
There have been reports about Prince Charles helping the royal couple get back on their feet post-Megxit. However, no one knows exactly how much the heir to the throne is shouldering.
Since Prince Harry is the son of Prince Charles, the latter might be helping him and his daughter-in-law out of the goodness of his heart. The dad of two hasn’t publicly complained about helping the Sussexes, which means that they have figured out the terms of their agreement.
Prince Harry and Markle aren’t also penniless. In fact, the couple decided to quit The Firm so that they could become more financially independent. They recently signed as speakers at Harry Walker Agency, and this deal could give them millions in earnings.
