The glittering façade of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s American dream seems to be losing its luster as financial concerns cast a shadow over the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
Renowned royal biographer Tom Bower has issued a warning, suggesting that the couple, after extensively airing their grievances against the Royal Family, may be on the verge of facing significant financial challenges that could unravel their carefully curated post-royal life in the US.

According to The Daily Express, Speaking on TalkTV, Bower emphasized the predicament the Sussexes find themselves in, asserting that their ammunition for profiting from their public criticism of the Royal Family has been depleted. The couple’s Netflix series, Prince Harry’s book “Spare,” and the tell-all interview with Oprah Winfrey have seemingly exhausted their narrative, leaving them without substantial material to capitalize on.
The financial strain reportedly extends to Montecito, where the couple resides, following their departure from Spotify. Bower remarked on the irony that, despite initially seeking privacy in the United States, the Sussexes have earned money by divulging their personal struggles and discontent within the Royal Family.
“The idea they have anything other to contribute beyond their trashing of the Royal Family is laughable. They’ve been found out. They are now ridiculed in Hollywood. They are ignored in New York,” commented Bower during the TalkTV discussion, painting a stark picture of the couple’s current standing in influential circles.
The royal biographer highlighted Meghan Markle’s rumored autobiography as potentially the last resort for the couple to generate income. Describing it as “sensational” due to the Duchess’s “very vivid imagination,” Bower questioned the depth of their contributions beyond their criticisms of the Royal Family. This raises concerns about the sustainability of their post-royal lifestyle and the viability of Meghan’s literary endeavors as a primary income source.
However, Bower also warned of potential consequences if the Sussexes face financial hardships, stating, “The tension would be enormous. If pushed into a corner (financially), they may be desperate and say some more terrible things.” This observation underscores the precarious position the couple might find themselves in if their financial resources become significantly limited.
The uncertainties surrounding Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s financial future add a new layer to their post-royal narrative. The delicate balance between financial sustainability and maintaining a positive public image becomes increasingly challenging as they navigate their new life in the United States.
As the storm clouds of financial uncertainty gather, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex face a pivotal moment that could determine the trajectory of their American dream. The coming months will reveal whether they can weather the challenges ahead or if the financial strains will further unravel the carefully constructed narrative of their post-royal journey
