Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have been at the center of all sorts of rumors ever since they started dating. When the couple announced their decision to quit their duties in 2020, it was seemingly their hope to lead more private lives away from gossip and speculations. Unfortunately, this isn't what happened. In fact, more dubious claims surrounded the couple after they relocated to the United States.
Are Prince Harry And Meghan Markle Strapped For Cash?
Since Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were no longer receiving a salary from the royal family, some publications claimed that they are already strapped for cash. And the Sussexes allegedly realized that they are no longer financially viable long-term after they attended the queen's Platinum Jubilee in June.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex allegedly were left humiliated because of the reception that they received when they set foot in the United Kingdom. A source claimed that it's only a matter of time before the couple will be forgotten and overshadowed by the younger member of the royal family like Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis.
However, Suggest debunked the claims by saying that Prince Harry and Markle are already set for life – money and income-wise. After all, the Sussexes are very well-off, so they don't need to worry about money ever.

Prince Harry, Meghan Markle Allegedly Engaging In Publicity Stunts For The Money
In July, royal commentator Jonathan Sacerdoti claimed that Prince Harry and Markle would continue with their publicity stunts because they needed to secure their money and live the life that they wanted to.
"Once those kids reach teenage years and older, maybe people won't be so interested in Prince Harry. I think he knows that and maybe during the time there is still the gaze of the world's media and the interest of celebrity watchers on them, they'll keep going. And it doesn't matter if it's negative as long it gets the attention and maybe the money that they need to live the way they want to," he said (via Express).
Prince Harry And Meghan Markle Allegedly Know That Their Time In The Limelight Is Limited
Sacerdoti added that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex must know that their time in the limelight is limited.
"There's an interesting thing Prince Harry said ages ago that he kind of knew that he had a certain amount of time in the limelight, his 15 minutes. And eventually, Prince Louis, Prince George, and Princess Charlotte would become new, interesting characters. And he knows that because he once was the spare to the heir. And now he's talking about the new heir, that is to say, William's children, William's son, who will become of interest and there'll be a new Prince Harry," he said.
As of writing, Prince Harry and Markle are getting their salaries from Spotify, Netflix, Prince Harry's publisher, and their other engagements. However, this doesn't mean that they are desperate for cash. The couple is simply working just like most adults who also have bills to pay and children to take care of.
