Prince Harry once mentioned a detail in his memoir "Backup", that is, when his wife Meghan Markle visited William Kate's residence, she "looked at the room full of antiques and luxurious furnishings", and her eyes were full of envy, because although they also lived in Kensington Palace at that time, it was a residence called Nottingham Cottage, and "even the sofa was bought from IKEA".
At the time, Harry wanted to emphasize how different he was from the brother who would become the king of England in the future, but he may not realize that Meghan's "essence" was also exposed...
According to the "Daily Mail" local time on February 27, royal expert Tom Ball said in an interview that Meghan was surprised and disappointed by Harry's "almost no money".
"To her great surprise and disappointment, Prince Harry had very little money," and "she had imagined him worth hundreds of millions, if not billions, and she now had to make up for that." Ball said so, and bluntly referred to the Duchess of Sussex as a "money junkie."
Ball said that food and clothing are not enough to satisfy Meghan, she has higher goals and a more luxurious life, "She wants to fly in a large Cadillac, which is a private jet." And since she can't get what she wants by relying on Harry, she needs to find it herself, and the title of duchess happens to be a very good "tool".
After signing a "big deal" with "Netflix" and Penguin Press, Harry Meghan also earned a lot of money, or more than 100 million US dollars (about 690 million RMB), but this is not enough for Meghan, she longs to be as famous and rich as reality TV actress Kim Kardashian. Of course, with the title of nobility, she also thinks that she is "one level higher" than Sister Jin.
In fact, Meghan has flown in private jets many times, for which she has been criticized. But the problem is that these private jets are someone else's, borrowing her out of "friendliness", such as Sir Elton John, for the sake of Princess Diana's face, lending her own plane to send Harry Meghan to southern Europe for a vacation.
The question is, how is Meghan going to make a lot of money now? I wanted to win the favor of the American people or celebrities by attacking and ridiculing the British royal family, but it backfired. Not only did the support rate decline one after another, but it was also satirized by the media through animation. It's not that there are no American celebrities to take care of her, but compared to the attention when she first returned to the United States, it is indeed much bleaker, especially the two African American ladies who have quite a voice, Michelle Obama and Oprah Winfrey, have excluded Meghan from the circle of friends.
On the other hand, Harry Meghan, who prides herself on having a lot of money, has not given up "gnawing the old". Charles' high rent and income from the "Duchy of Cornwall" was supported by an average of about £2.3 million (about 19.25 million RMB) a year for his youngest son.
According to Hame, that amount is only enough to cover 95 percent of their office expenses, even though they don't do much publicly. This also means that Meghan is not satisfied with the subsidy given by her father-in-law, or too little, and even the office expenses are not completely enough, how can she fly unimpeded by private jet.
I don't know if the future proceeds of the Duchy of Cornwall will go to Harry, after all, in principle, this place has already been taken over by Prince William.
