Harry and Meghan Markle divorce rumours resurface ‘They have grown apart and are living separate lives’
The pair married in 2018 but after six years of marriage, could be set to break up over Prince Harry’s longing for home.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex married in 2018 and have two children together but could it all be set to fall apart as a royal insider claims Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are in “trial separation” to rescue their union?
Markle, known for her role as Rachel Zane in Suits, tied the knot with the son of King Charles III following around nine years of dating and since then, it has seemed that they’ve only really had each other to rely on since quitting their royal duties in 2020.
Prince Harry has lost touch with his family since moving to California with her, whilst they have also lost shared friends such as the Beckhams due to challenging business ventures as well as controversial incidents such as their 2021 Oprah Winfrey interview.
Now it might be taking a toll on the 40-year-old, who it is claimed is missing his family and isn’t overly keen on the celebrity Los Angeles lifestyle as reports circulate that the pair could be on a collision course to divorce.
“They have been drifting apart for a while,” an insider told RadarOnline.com. “With Harry’s desire to return to the UK where his old drinking buddies are and his hope to return to the very comfortable fold of the Royal Family putting a real strain on their marriage.
“He’s hated their bids for stardom with Netflix and Spotify getting pulled and them ending up ridiculed, and he’s starting to miss England.
“He used to love going to the pub and playing sport with his pals, and the life Meghan wants to lead in LA couldn’t be further away from that.
“And [that] would seem alien to any blue-blooded English man, as it’s all about juicing and yoga. His plans to pursue his own activities and tours away from Meghan is the first sign they are effectively on a ‘trial separation’ while they work this out.”
Are the pair drifting apart?
Prince Harry recently spent his 40th birthday apart from his wife on September 15, although this isn’t actually cause for great concern considering it was the ex-USA Network actress who arranged and encouraged the trip.
However through 2024 Markle has been spotted less and less with her husband on his tours and duties, suggesting that something has changed in their dynamic after she used to so determinedly accompany him.
For example, the man fifth-in-line to the throne has carried out 10 engagements in 15 days but Markle hasn’t attended a single one, despite some being in New York City, and she previously skipped a trip to London earlier in the year
