Meghan Markle may be a “commoner” in the royal sense, but she had plenty of coin in her pocketbook before she met Prince Harry in 2016. According to Celebrity Net Worth, the former actress has an estimated net worth of $5 million in her own right. Prince Harry isn’t completely beholden to the crown either. He reportedly inherited millions following the tragic death of his mother, Princess Diana, and he also earned a modest income as a helicopter pilot for the Army Air Corps, according to Forbes. The point is: The Duke and Duchess of Sussex probably have a wee bit of cushion in their budget.
Not to mention, these two want to work. On their website (via Cosmopolitan), Meghan and Harry reportedly said they “value the ability to earn a professional income, which in the current structure they are prohibited from doing.”
Markle has been preaching the same thing for years. “I think the biggest part of being a girl boss … is just knowing your value,” the Suits star told InStyle in 2015. On her now-defunct lifestyle blog, The Tig, she once wrote: “I’ve never wanted to be a lady who lunches — I’ve always wanted to be a woman who works.” It looks like she’ll now get her chance.
