Prince Harry and Meghan Markle step out all smiles amid business setbacks

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were unbothered by the drama surrounding them in many aspects of their life, as they appeared in goo spirits for their recent outing.

The Duke and Duchess od Sussex emerged from an office complex on Friday, June 30th, 2023, which houses several organisations including a karate studio, hair salon, Pilates studio and a yoga and Himalayan meditation group. However, it is unclear which office they visited specifically, via Page Six.

The couple was all smiles as they held hands as they walked through Santa Barbara, while being escorted by a member of their security personnel.

The former Suits actress, 41, was dressed in a white button-up tucked into brown shorts. She completed her look with a white hat, sunglasses and layered bracelets. Meanwhile, Harry, 38, was dressed casually in a polo shirt paired with a baseball cap and shades.

The outing comes days after royal biographer Angela Levin told Sky News Australia that Meghan will “sort of walk away” from Harry as their marriage is “very nearly finished.”

The royal couple also seem to be facing a tough time in their businesses.

Spotify axed its $20 million deal with the royals after just one season of Markle’s podcast, Archetypes. According to a source cited by Variety, Spotify had been expecting more content from Archewell Audio. Nearly three years after signing the contract, only one series has been released.

Sources close to Spotify also said the royal couple did not meet the productivity benchmark required to receive the full headline payout from the deal, according to the Wall Street Journal.

Moreover, according to reports Netflix is unlikely to renew its deal with the Sussexes which was worth a reported $150 million, of which they have only been paid half of that amount so far.

Furthermore, the Sussexes are officially evicted from their Frogmore Cottage, their Windsor home, which was presented to them by late Queen Elizabeth II as a wedding gift.
