Meghan Markle Shock: Harry's Wife Still Worth Millions Even Without Royal Family's Support
Meghan Markle remains one of the most followed members of the royal family. The Duchess of Sussex and her husband, Prince Harry, stepped down as senior royals earlier this year. However, the bombshell exit did not stop fans and critics alike to continue digging details about their new life outside the palace.
Upon announcing their decision to depart from the royal life for good, the Sussex couple announced they wanted to be “financially independent” as they will no longer receive the so-called “sovereign grant” and, thus, they need to earn their own money to make ends meet.
However, Daily Express reported that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are worth more than $45 million already even without support from the Royal family. Celebrity Net Worth claimed that the net worth of Prince William’s brother is $40 million, which is said to be the amount of funds left in trust to him by Princess Diana. He, also, inherited a total of $10 million from an appreciated trust payment in 2014.
Meghan, on the other hand, has $5 million net worth. Reports have it that the mother of Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor earned $450,000 annually for her role on Suits. The wife of Prince Harry has, allegedly, been earning approximately $80,000 a year from sponsorship deals.
At the moment, both Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have started working on their new projects. As a matter of fact, the Sussex pair, recently, launched a new charity called Archewell but it has been delayed due to the pandemic. Aside from that, the couple is also projected to become the next public-speaking figure.
Meanwhile, Prince Harry and Meghan have debunked the reports claiming that they contributed to the controversial “Finding Freedom” book. The unofficial biography, for starters, details the life of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex during their first meeting up to the shocking “Megxit.” A spokesperson of the couple claimed that “they were never interviewed.”
Despite this, immediate relatives of the pair, allegedly, think that they are involved in the creation of the said book. Thomas Markle, who is Meghan’s father, reportedly, said that he has no confidence in his own daughter. Prince William, for his part, allegedly, thinks the same and said that it is the couple’s way of controlling the narrative.
Both Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have yet to comment on these reports. Hence, avid followers of the Sussex couple should take these unverified claims with a grain of salt until everything is proven true and correct.
