Snitching sources claimed that Prince Harry and his fame-hungry bride, Meghan, are so at odds with one another that they are leading separate lives as their goal of living in California turns into a protracted and drawn-out nightmare.
Tipsters claim that the rebellious royals have been torn apart by the Duchess of Sussex's unrelenting ambition and the rejected duke's regret over his deteriorating reputation with the royal family, the dissatisfied public, and Hollywood's wealthy and famous.
It has been four years since the couple abandoned their palace duties in the United Kingdom to pursue money-making agreements in Hollywood, Deadline reported, and according to sources within the organization, their separations have been more frequent and longer as they pursue their agendas and become increasingly estranged from one another.
It has been brought to the attention of spies that the parents of Prince Archie, who is five years old, and Princess Lilibet, who is three years old, are rearing their children in Los Angeles, Meghan's home state. The couple has been apart for the past 21 days and counting! It was a year ago when Harry released his secret-spilling memoir "Spare," which criticized his royal kin, and when he held his cherished Invictus Games in Germany without his wife of six years by his side.
According to moles, the developing gulf between the couple became clear then. In the meantime, the self-promotional former "Suits" stunner, who is 43 years old, has allied herself with the controversial Hollywood agency Ari Emanuel in the run-up to her lifestyle company American Riviera Orchard, which has stumbled out of the gate because a trademark bid for its name was rejected!
"Harry and Meghan were already moving in completely different directions," a palace source told The National Enquirer. "She couldn't care less about the isolation he's feeling from his friends and family or his passion projects. She just wants to be a Queen of Hollywood."
The distance between spouses was on display when the redheaded royal jetted off to New York City without Meghan on Sept. 22 to attend the United Nations General Assembly - a week after shockingly spending the night of his 40th birthday with friends instead of his longtime love! Instead of heading home after speaking at the UN, Harry flew to London for the WellChild charity's annual awards ceremony to celebrate the accomplishments of seriously ill kids and their caregivers.
Despite Harry's efforts to mend the divide within the royal family, many believe that divorce clouds are hovering over the marriage.
Despite his efforts to communicate with his father, King Charles, who is battling cancer, sources within the royal family claim that the merciless monarch has refused to meet with him, as per Fox News. This is also the case with his older brother, Prince William, who is the heir apparent to the kingdom and has not communicated with Harry for more than a year!
A courtier confides that the palace promptly denied Harry's requests for even temporary royal security and advantages for Meghan and their children while they were on British soil.
Following his rejection in London, Prince Harry traveled to the African nation of Lesotho alone to show his support for the charitable organization Sentebale, which he co-founded in 2006 with Prince Seeiso, who is 58 years old.
"All of these were significant moments for Harry that Meghan has shown little interest in or support for," a tipster claimed.
Unseen sources reveal that Harry, who lives in London, has witnessed his A-list friends turn their backs on him because of his wife's unending ambition, which has been met with disapproval in Hollywood. This has made his isolation even more obvious.
It has been several months since he was last seen with the Obamas, and he did not attend the charity event that George and Amal Clooney hosted in New York City, even though he was in the Big Apple then! According to someone who knew the situation, Harry was relieved to take some time away from the erstwhile suitcase girl from "Deal or No Deal."
"It's safe to say Harry is less than thrilled with how things turned out and that's the problem going forward," a source confided. "He would like to take a more dignified approach to public life, while Meghan is still hell-bent on conquering Hollywood and trading on their fame."
According to a further insider, Prince Harry has always met with ambivalence in making their royal titles available for commercial use. One of the reasons he departed the royal family was because of the negative impact that constant public attention had on him.
He witnessed his mother, Princess Diana, as she was destroyed. On the other hand, Meghan has been unwavering in her commitment to her goals; she is not going to back down, and neither is he. They are now entirely disjointed as a result of it.
