Rumors are flying that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s marriage is in trouble.
RadarOnline reported on July 18 that Prince Harry and his wife are “taking time apart” to heal and rebuild their relationship.
“They are trying to figure out why they want to be apart. Harry doesn’t fit into Meghan’s messy showbiz world,” a source said, adding that Harry hopes to “find himself.”
However, an insider close to the couple, who married in May 2018, assured Page Six that any speculation about a split is untrue.
“That’s not true, it’s just a rumor,” the insider explained.
Prince Harry, 38, is planning to return to Africa alone to film a new Netflix documentary.
RadarOnline sources said Harry feels “most like himself” on the continent, which he considers a “second home”.
The source added that Prince Harry’s family, who moved to Montecito, California (USA) in March 2020 after stepping down as senior members of the British Royal Family, are “under enormous financial pressure to maintain a lavish lifestyle in California, including a $14 million mansion and the cost of a huge security system”.
“That stress, coupled with emotional issues, could have made their life a living hell. Spending time apart on another continent will hopefully help them find what they need to move forward in their marriage,” the source continued.
Meanwhile, an anonymous tipster told Deuxmoi that the couple had “sold their mansion in Montecito” and Harry was “living somewhere else.”
The self-proclaimed “pop culture curators” behind the celebrity rumours responded: “Not sure if the house is sold but I heard a few weeks ago that Harry is staying somewhere else.”
Despite public spats with Harry’s relatives and backlash over their business ventures, RadarOnline ‘s source claims the duo’s Spotify failure has been a “game changer” in their relationship.
Last month, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle ‘s $20 million deal with popular streaming service Spotify abruptly ended as their podcast Archetypes wrapped up its first season.
At the time, insiders said the pair struggled to come up with any great ideas for the podcast.
Harry wants to do interviews with Donald Trump, Mark Zuckerberg, Vladimir Putin and Pope Francis – a line-up that reportedly “confused” Spotify executives.
In fact, sports podcaster Bill Simmons — one of Spotify’s most senior executives — called Prince Harry and the former actress “troublemakers” after they were canceled.
Royal expert Daniela Elser claims Meghan Markle, 41, who shares son Archie, 4, and daughter Lilibet, 2, with Prince Harry, is “looking to create her own brand to make millions of dollars”.
