Montecito, where Meghan Markle and Prince Harry reside, is on high alert after the latest developments. It seems that peace has ended in the marriage of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, and things are starting to get complicated. After Netflix chose not to renew their contract, a new disappointment has emerged that puts Markle on edge.
Her 44th birthday has been overshadowed by information that doesn't seem likely to be solved. If a quick solution is not found, her entire dreamed life with Prince Harry is in serious jeopardy.
The latest news that shakes Meghan Markle and Prince Harry
This year, Meghan Markle's birthday was far from a celebration. The glamorous parties and photogenic smiles for social media are a thing of the past. This year, Prince Harry's wife blew out her candles in a delicate context.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have announced that Meghan's business ventures are failing spectacularly. Her natural products brand has not managed to convince consumers, and the losses have set off alarms in Montecito.
Since Prince Harry and Meghan Markle decided to step away from their royal duties in 2020, the couple bet everything on their financial independence. Audiovisual projects, multimillion-euro contracts, and a carefully built personal brand. The former actress's profile became more professional, sharing a homely and natural feeling aimed at boosting sales.
Everything seemed to indicate that it would be a success; however, the latest data have painted a very different reality. "She has started many things, and none of them have borne fruit," sources close to them point out.
Meghan's birthday comes just as it is confirmed that her popularity no longer has the same impact. The data do not lie. Her podcast "Archetypes," which had been launched with great fanfare, did not keep a stable audience and was canceled after its first season.
Markle's public image has suffered; the public, who initially empathized with her fight for independence, now perceive her more critically. Not even giving her products to popular figures like Kris Jenner or actress Zoe Saldaña to promote them has helped. "She hasn't had any success," an expert points out.
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry move away from the great American dream
Prince Harry has not been oblivious to his wife's business failures. In fact, some suggest that this may have motivated him to make peace with the royal family.
The couple, who sought financial and personal independence, now face the challenge of reinventing themselves and finding new strategies for their businesses. This birthday has undoubtedly been the most complicated for Meghan since she left the United Kingdom. It is no longer just about moving away from royal protocols; the challenge is to sustain a personal brand that is beginning to show signs of exhaustion.
Image analysts agree: Meghan needs to reinvent herself. Although they doubt that this will help put a stop to the delicate situation. "She will surely come up with something; maybe one of the things she does will become trendy," a marketing expert notes.
Despite the problems, Markle keeps a firm stance. On social media, although quieter, she continues to send messages of empowerment and optimism. However, it is clear that the days of media glory have changed.
Prince Harry, an essential pillar in Meghan's life, has shown his unconditional support at this crucial moment. However, the pressure of managing their businesses and personal life without the support of the royal family is undeniable. In any case, the former actress and the prince will have to turn their lives around if they want to reverse the situation.
