Financial crisis and separation items obscure Harry and Meghan’s future. Netflix focuses on the exclusive of the possible divorce and relaunches with new clauses to armor the millionaire contract
Although Harry and Meghan always appear smiling on social networks, the voices that come from Montecito tell another another story. Prince Harry, increasingly committed to the global promotion of Invictus Gamesand Meghan Markle, who focuses everything on the new Lifestyle brand “as ever” (Between jams and hypothetical investments in the hotellerie sector), they now seem to move on distinct professional tracks. And, according to what British and American tabloids persisting, even in private life the idyll would be cracked.
These rumors have not escaped Netflixthe streaming giant with which the Sussex signed a multimilionary contract in 2020. On the eve of the renewal of the agreement – that would put on the plate well 153 million dollars To prolong the collaboration, it has been activated for five years – the top management of the company would have made a surprise move. According to what is trapped, the platform would have imposed one unpublished clause: get theexclusive for any separate interviews by Harry and Meghan in the case of a divorce.
But it doesn’t end there. Netflix would also like to secure theexclusive on the official presentation of Two children of the couple, Archie and Lilibetin the event that they decide to publicly show them to the world – perhaps during a future return to court in London. So far, in fact, the children have only appeared from behind in the photos and videos shared by Meghan.
The stakes could not be higher. According to the English documentary “Meghan and Harry: Where Did All the Money Go?” (“Meghan and Harry: where did all the money end?”), Broadcast by Channel 5, the Sussex would desperately need those million. The financial situation, in fact, would be very different from the glories of 2020when the couple was courted by all international majors after the sensational Megxit. Over the years, thanks to the progressive decline of popularity and a series of disappointing projects (first of all the flop of the contract with Spotify), Harry and Meghan have lost several commercial agreements. Even Netflix would have been dissatisfied with the numbers recorded by the last content produced by the couple.
Today the Sussex are thus found in front of a delicate crossroads and, in a certain sense, embarrassing. Accepting the conditions imposed by Netflix would mean not only implicitly admit the possibility of a future separationbut also give part of the media control over their children. Yet, according to the Royal Watcher who close their events closely, the couple may not have much choice …
In the Sussex coffers the money is about to end: that’s why
Channel 5 has analyzed their finances thoroughly, revealing that the decision to settle at Montecitoone of the most expensive areas of California, is proving to be a much heavier weight than expected. The luxurious villa, immersed in a land of 8 acres, surrounded by neighbors of the caliber of Oprah Winfrey And Gwyneth Paltrowit cost about $ 15 million. But, not having the entire sum available at the time of purchase, Harry and Meghan had to turn on a 9.5 million mortgage, with a monthly installment of about 100 thousand dollars. To this figure are added bills, taxes, a large staff composed of Nanny, gardeners, chauffeur and personal assistants, without counting the ultra sophisticated safety system which, between bodyguards and technology, costs about 3 million dollars per year.
The former prince, accustomed throughout his life to have the Economic support of Royal Familynow he finds himself, for the first time, to have to deal personally with a family budget. Last year, at the age of 40, Harry received theinheritance left him by the mother queen – 8.5 million dollars – a figure however lower than that inherited from his brother William, however destined for the throne. But also those funds, together with much of the huge heritage left by Diana, would have been absorbed by the imposing Montecito car.
Thus, while the patinated images on Instagram still show a sembrem of family serenity, behind the scenes a very tension negotiation would be consuming. The choice of Sussex could decide not only their economic future, but also that of their public narrative.
