Friends of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle reveal growing marital strain as Meghan’s business ventures falter

Tensions are rising in Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s marriage as the Duchess of Sussex faces professional setbacks, close friends reveal. According to insiders, Meghan’s recent business struggles have exacerbated issues in their relationship, with heated disagreements becoming more frequent behind closed doors.

Royal author Tom Quinn, speaking to Fabulous, disclosed that friends of the Duke and Duchess have noticed mounting friction between the couple, especially when Meghan’s ventures fail to meet expectations. One of the most significant sources of strain, sources say, was the widespread ridicule Meghan faced over her “internet home-making venture.”

Quinn explained, “Friends have noticed that like all couples, Harry and Meghan argue, but what makes it worse is that they spend almost all of their time together. Unlike others who get breaks from one another, they are constantly in each other’s space.”

He further added, “When things don’t go as planned for Meghan professionally, it puts additional stress on their relationship. She was deeply upset and overwhelmed when her online business was met with public mockery, and this inevitably took its toll on Harry.”

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have long presented a united front since stepping down as senior royals in 2020, forging their independent path in the United States. However, behind the scenes, sources suggest that cracks are beginning to show. Meghan has pursued multiple business endeavours since the couple’s exit from royal life, but not all have been met with success.

While Harry has remained supportive, friends claim the growing weight of Meghan’s frustrations has led to mounting pressure on their marriage. “Harry wants to be the supportive husband, but when Meghan is struggling, it affects him too,” a source revealed. “They are both navigating a lot, but there is no doubt that their marriage is being tested.”

Their relationship has been scrutinised ever since their dramatic departure from royal duties, with the pair often making headlines for their ventures in Hollywood, podcasting, and philanthropy. Meghan’s latest business setback, however, has sparked fresh speculation about the stability of their relationship.

Despite the challenges, the couple continues to present a public image of solidarity. They have been spotted together at various events, with Harry recently accompanying Meghan on business trips. Yet, close friends insist that behind the scenes, unresolved tensions linger, and Meghan’s career struggles have added an undeniable strain to their dynamic.

Observers have noted that the pressures of Hollywood, business, and maintaining a public image may be taking their toll. While the Duke and Duchess remain committed to their shared goals, sources close to the couple believe they are at a crossroads in their relationship, where they must learn to weather the storms that come with fame and fortune.

Only time will tell whether Meghan and Harry can navigate these choppy waters together or if the pressures of their post-royal life will continue to test the strength of their marriage.
