Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have allegedly been feuding over money.
In its Jan. 10 issue, Woman’s Day claimed that Prince Harry recently confronted Markle over her spending habits.
A source claimed that Markle has been spending money on nonsense things. And she has also been buying decors for their Montecito home.
“Meghan has expensive taste, and she loves updating their home seemingly constantly. She’s forever dropping hundreds of dollars on décor and Harry’s tearing his hair out over it. They’re still paying back British taxpayers for their renovations of Frogmore Cottage in Windsor that they barely used before they moved to the US. Now, Meghan’s draining their bank account in a way Harry can’t believe. It’s a source of tension between them,” the source said.
In the book Royals at War, authors Dylan Howard and Andy Tillett claimed that Queen Elizabeth also had some concerns over Markle’s extravagant spending while she was still a senior working royal. So, this allegedly proves that Prince Harry’s concerns are justified.
The insider also claimed that Prince Harry couldn’t help but worry about his finances because even though he’s been earning a lot, his wife’s spending is still so much compared to their income.
“Harry no longer has access to an endless checkbook. He has his inheritance from his mother and is starting to earn big money in America, but his outgoings are incredibly high with huge property and staff to maintain. He may be forced to go back to the bank of Granny and Pa – but the question is, would they even help him?” the source said.
To make their claims more convincing, the tabloid published a photo of Markle carrying a small brown bag of goodies.
The tabloid claimed that this proves that Markle has been spending so much money on expensive things. However, a brown bag is usually used when buying groceries. And the fact that Markle was only carrying one small brown bag proves that she’s not overspending.
If the Duchess of Sussex has been wasting her family’s money on unimportant or expensive things, she would be photographed carrying paper bags from high-end brands.
Prince Harry and Markle couldn’t possibly be fighting over money because the couple’s income in the United States guarantees that they are already set for the rest of their lives.
