Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have finally made a life-changing decision to live somewhat separate lives, according to a new report.
The Duke of Sussex – who shares two kids, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, with Meghan – appeared happy on his solo engagements.
However, Meghan’s recent appearances have led to concern as she looked “‘unhappy” without her husband Harry.
“I think Meghan was overshadowed, and I don’t think she was happy about it,” royal commentator Ingrid Steward said.
The commentator went on: “Meghan is doing her best to deal with this change, but it’s not been easy.”
“They’ve agreed to go their separate ways for a while when it comes to appearances and work, not least because they’ve got so much on their plates. They can’t be in two places at once, so it’s much better to divide and conquer, at least in theory.”
The insider, according to HeatWorld, claimed, “Putting these changes into action has left Meghan quite bewildered. She’s gotten so used to having Harry by her side for every big public event and red carpet, and he’s a really calming influence for her.
The Duchess of Sussex is said to be worried about how easily Harry has seemed to slip into solo mode.
They explained the situation, saying: “Not having him is difficult, especially since he seems to be having no problems adjusting. He’s obviously thriving on his own, while she’s feeling lost and is finding it hard to cope. By all accounts, it has her questioning if them being more independent was a good idea.”
“When she and Harry agreed to this pact, the idea was to try it out and see how it worked, then reassess. But he’s adapted to it so well, it looks like something he’s going to want to stick with,” according to the source.
They went on claiming: “Meghan is still determined to be taken seriously in Hollywood and build her brand, so there’s simply no way she can take a step back. If anything, she needs to attend more events and walk more red carpets.”
The insider cleared the air about their relationship, saying: “Up until now, Harry and Meghan have been such a unit, so it’s a huge adjustment to go without him. And, what’s making it even harder is that a lot of people are taking this change as proof that they are having difficulties in their marriage. That’s especially tough for Meghan, because her image is so tied to being Harry’s wife.
“No matter how much they both insist that things are completely solid between them, when she turns up to events solo, the whispers start.”
