- Meghan Markle and Prince Harry reportedly haven’t made money since stepping away from senior royal duties.
- The couple is expected to make a casual $1 million for future speaking engagements though!
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry officially stepped away from their senior royal duties in March, which means they’re also officially financially independent. But apparently, the royal couple has yet to earn an income—at least, according to royal reporter Katie Nicholl, who told Entertainment Tonight, “They do need to make money. They’ve been in L.A. since March, they left the royal family at the end of March, and as yet, they haven’t actually earned anything.”
According to Nicholl, Meghan and Harry signed with the Harry Walker Agency (a firm that reps the Obamas and Serena Williams) in June, which will help them book appearances that could bring in as much as $1 million.
BTW, before you start wondering if Meghan and Harry might dish on their time in England, a source tells ET that the royal family is off the table, explaining, “They have no plans to do any speaking engagements about the royal family” and that they’re “firmly committed to social issues the world is facing now, including racial justice, gender equity, and mental health.”
Meghan and Harry have already been using their platform to fight systemic racism and injustice in the United States, and apparently, Meghan hasn’t ruled out a career in politics, which, YES, PLEASE.
