Meghan Markle joined the royal family three years ago after she wed Prince Harry at Windsor Castle. At the time, Markle was dubbed as a B-level actress because although she was appearing in Suits, not everyone knew who she was.

According to reports, Meghan Markle’s net worth was estimated at $5 million in 2018, but this figure increased considerably after she and Prince Harry quit The Firm in 2020.

The Duchess of Sussex used to have a lifestyle blog called The Tig, which gave her an estimated $80,000 per year income from branding, sponsorships, and endorsements.

According to Celebrity Net Worth, Markle and Prince Harry’s joint net worth is estimated at $60 million. However, this figure can easily double or even triple by next year. After all, the Sussexes signed multiple deals in the past two years.

On top of this, Prince Harry also has a lucrative book deal, and he and his wife just partnered with asset manager, Ethic.

According to Yahoo! Finance, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex didn’t sign a prenup so whatever it is that they earn as a couple will be split equally between them.

Before quitting The Firm, Prince Harry and Markle’s combined net worth was estimated between $25 to $40 million. And even though these figures increased following their Megxit, Prince Harry and Markle would’ve been richer if they were still getting financial support from the Sovereign Grant.

Unfortunately, part of the consequences of quitting their royal duties is funding their daily expenses. The couple had to purchase a house in Montecito, and they also pay for their own security team.

Other personal expenses that Prince Harry didn’t have to worry about like phone bills and electrical costs are now included in his family’s budget.

But despite all these expenses, Prince Harry and Markle are still, technically, richer than Kate Middleton.

Even though Prince William holds a higher position based on the Order of Succession compared to his brother, Prince Harry has surprisingly become richer than him – for now.

After all, Prince William and Middleton cannot just accept deals from companies since they work for Queen Elizabeth, and they also represent the royal family.

However, it is also important to note that Prince William and Prince Harry will receive more money after Prince Charles and the queen pass away.
