Prince Charles is rumored to still be giving Prince Harry and Meghan Markle monthly allowance months after they quit The Firm.
According to Globe, the heir to the throne is still providing financial support to Prince Harry, who is a brat, and Markle, who is high-maintenance.
On top of the Sussexes’ $30,000 monthly allowance, they also, allegedly, receive $360,000 yearly from the income generated from the Duchy of Cornwall.
However, Gossip Cop has immediately debunked the tabloid’s claim by pointing out some of the contradicting statements they mentioned in their article.
For instance, the source said that Markle is high-maintenance suggests that Prince Charles sees her this way. And calling Prince Harry a brat suggests that he’s taking advantage of his dad’s generosity.
But the source also claimed that Prince Charles admires his son and daughter-in-law for choosing love. In fact, the future king is also, allegedly, inspired by his son for running after what he wants unlike him, who waited decades before he married Camilla Parker Bowles.
“It’s difficult to take this report seriously when it’s contempt for Markle oozes in every sentence. It says she has “destroyed Harry’s life” and calls her a spoiled failure. This is nothing new from the tabloid media, but it’s rare you see the hatred this blatant,” the rumor-debunking site said.
Gossip Cop also pointed out that Markle and Prince Harry have their own source of income. As such, it is not fair to say that they are struggling financially.
Just recently, the couple signed a multiyear deal with Netflix. And according to reports, the Sussexes could earn millions from the said partnership.
On top of this, Prince Harry and Markle also have their own money even before they met. Prince Harry was receiving money from the royal family, Queen Elizabeth, and Princess Diana’s will. Markle, on the other hand, was working as an actress in Hollywood.
And the fact that Prince Harry and Markle were able to pay off the taxpayers’ money used to renovate Frogmore Cottage proves that they have enough money. A source close to the couple also confirmed that they are already financially independent from the royal family.
