Meghan Markle was 'surprised and disappointed' that Prince Harry 'had very little money', a royal author Tom Bower says. He appeared on GB News where he spoke about the couple's early relationship.

Tom Bowers described the duchess and former Suits actress as 'money-obsessed'. The expert said: 'Her great surprise and disappointment was that Prince Harry had very little money. 'She had imagined he would be worth hundreds of millions, if not billions, and she is having to make up for it now.'

The couple was mostly funded by King Charles' Duchy of Cornwall estate while they were senior working royals. According to reports, Prince Harry received an average of £2.3 million per year from the Duchy of Cornwall, which covered most of the couple's expenses, including staff salaries and office costs. The remaining five per cent of their annual income was provided by the taxpayer-funded Sovereign Grant, which is allocated to support the official duties of the most senior members of the royal family.

After the couple announced their decision to step back as senior royals in early 2020, they became financially independent and stopped receiving funds from the Duchy of Cornwall and the Sovereign Grant. Instead, they pursued various business ventures and signed multimillion-dollar deals with companies such as Netflix and Spotify. These ventures, along with their public speaking engagements, reportedly provided them with a substantial income and allowed them to maintain their current lifestyle, including private jets and luxurious cars.

The £2.4million refurbishment of Frogmore Cottage, which served as the Sussexes' UK residence before they stepped back from their roles as senior royals, was indeed paid for using public funds from the Sovereign Grant. However, Prince Harry has since repaid this amount, reportedly using money from his inheritance from his late mother, Princess Diana.

After they announced their decision to step back as working royals, the couple did indeed pledge to become financially independent while continuing to support the Queen. They have since pursued various business ventures, including their deal with Netflix to produce content through their Archewell Productions company, as well as their podcast deal with Spotify. These deals are reported to be worth millions of pounds.

Regarding Prince Harry's comments about relying on his inheritance after Megxit, it is true that he inherited a substantial sum from his mother, Princess Diana, after her death. Reports suggest that he also received a bequest from his great-grandmother, the Queen Mother, after her death in 2002.

Meghan Markle, on the other hand, reportedly had a personal fortune of around £4 million before marrying Prince Harry, primarily from her acting work and investments in property. She also earned a reported $50,000 per episode for her role in the TV series Suits before leaving the show to move to the UK.

It is true that Meghan's speaking fees reportedly increased after she gave a speech at a UN event in 2015, for which she was reportedly paid £15,000. She is said to have signed with talent agency Kruger Cowne around the same time, which represents several high-profile celebrities.

Regarding Meghan's comments in the Netflix documentary, it is true that she said she did not know much about Prince Harry's family or the royal family before they met. She also joked that she had to quickly learn the words to the British national anthem ahead of her first public engagement with the royal family.
