“There’s no doubt the royal family is going through a crisis at the moment… Meghan will be aware of how upset Harry is by what’s happened… But in a way, she’ll probably be pleased that Harry has stayed out of it,” Larcombe told RadarOnline.
“I’m sure she’s telling him, ‘keep your head down, don’t get involved, the royal family is in a crisis, don’t drag us into this’.”
Larcombe added that Meghan’s priority is safeguarding As Ever, her lifestyle brand launched last year alongside her Netflix cooking series, With Love, Meghan.
Commercial Pressures
While As Ever products — including flower sprinkles, jam and crepe mix — have reportedly sold out online, Meghan’s Netflix ventures have faced challenges. Her cooking series was cancelled after two seasons due to low ratings, and the Sussexes’ previously headline-grabbing $100 million Netflix deal has since been reduced to a “first look” agreement.
Larcombe suggested that Meghan, who once benefited from her royal status in securing lucrative partnerships, is now likely to be more cautious about invoking those connections.
