Royal expert Tom Quinn has raised concerns about the future of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's marriage, particularly in the context of Prince Harry potentially losing his royal status.
Quinn's analysis suggests that such a loss could not only diminish the Sussex brand but might also impact Meghan's interest in her husband. The couple's endeavor to establish a lucrative brand in the U.S., through partnerships with companies like Netflix and Spotify, appears to be under threat as public interest in America reportedly wanes.
Quinn, in his exclusive comments to the Mirror, emphasized the unique position Prince Harry finds himself in, stating, "Harry and Meghan are beginning to worry that if their children don't have a relationship with the UK and by extension with the Royal family they will damage brand Sussex."
He further elaborated on the potential consequences of losing the royal allure, "Surveys already show that America is losing interest in the couple and they both know that Harry's only real selling point, his only real brand value, is that he's a Royal."
The expert didn't mince words when discussing the implications for Meghan's feelings towards Harry, "So he knows he's going to have to build bridges with the working royals or America will lose interest in him and if America loses interest there is a chance Meghan may also lose interest in him." This stark assessment paints a picture of a marriage intertwined with professional and public perceptions, where the value of royal status extends beyond mere titles to the very foundation of personal relationships.
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry do not have their own charity in the U.K. anymore.
Adding to the couple's challenges, Prince Harry's recent legal battle against the UK Home Office over his security status further complicates their situation. The High Court's ruling against Harry, which deemed the downgrade of his security status neither irrational nor procedurally unfair, has not only heightened his fears for his family's safety but also underscored his diminishing ties to the UK's institutional structures.
Despite the legal setback, Harry remains determined to appeal the decision, signaling his ongoing struggle to negotiate his family's safety and his royal identity in a post-Megxit landscape. This legal fight, coupled with the public's fluctuating interest, places the Sussexes at a critical juncture, one that may define their future both within and outside royal circles.
As the narrative unfolds, the couple's efforts to redefine their roles and maintain their brand's relevance continue to capture the world's attention. Meghan's advocacy and Harry's legal pursuits reflect their broader quest for autonomy and security, themes that resonate with their audience but also highlight the complexities of their unique position.
