For much of the past few years it’s seemed very much like Prince Harry and Meghan Markle against the world. After stepping back from their royal duties and making a home in Los Angeles, they have continued to draw criticism for their Netflix docuseries, other business deals and personal actions (including their “unwise” handling of King Charles III’s coronation). So it wouldn’t be the biggest shock to hear that the backlash has caused a little tension in their relationship. Reports have been circulating that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex may have separated, but a royal expert has added her 2 cents based on her personal experience with the couple.
Katie Nicholl is the author of "The New Royals," and she told ET that Prince Harry’s fractured relationship with his family and the fallout from the wild allegations in his memoir "Spare" likely have added tension to his five-year marriage to Meghan Markle. However, she said her experience with the couple showed a genuine love between the two.
