Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's trip to Africa might not just be a visit. According to reports, Buckingham Palace is sending the Duke and Duchess of Sussex to live there semi-permanently because they have become distressing for the royals.
Page Six cited an unnamed source who said that the Sussex royals are "too much stress" for the palace. The source also said that Duchess Meghan had created all the drama with her conditions and demands, and apparently, she isn't well-liked among the upper class.
The report went on to note that Prince Harry is not happy with the amount of money his wife spends on her clothes. Thus, staffers at the palace said the trip to Africa this fall could turn into an interesting development.
According to politician Nigel Farage, Prince Harry's popularity dived when he married the former Suits star, per the Telegraph. Though he meant this statement as a joke and a jab during a conservative event in Sydney, some guests seemed to agree with Farage's observations.
Prince Harry, Duchess Meghan and their son Archie Harrison are scheduled to visit South Africa for two weeks sometime in late September. They will be bringing along an entourage of staff members as well, including a nanny for their infant son.
Meanwhile, Duchess Meghan recently made a surprise appearance at Smart Works in London to oversee a photoshoot of a clothing range she is launching this fall. In a video post shared on social media, the duchess was shown greeting the models and the other people working behind the scenes. A lot of them had surprise reactions on their faces perhaps because they weren't expecting the royal to be there.
Unfazed by the recent spate of criticisms about her and Prince Harry for their private jet use, Duchess Meghan was all smiles and looked very comfortable in her skinny jeans, button-down shirt, and nude pumps. She was also on hand to direct and style the models during the photo shoot.
Duchess Meghan's clothing line is a collaboration with Jigsaw, Marks & Spencer, Misha Nonoo, and John Lewis. Proceeds of the sale from this collection will go to Smart Works, which the royals patronize.
"[This] is an initiative supporting the Smart Works collective which will equip women entering the workforce with the key workwear essentials they need...coming soon," the duchess said in an Instagram story post.
