These reportedly include between USD$2 million and $3 million a year (around AUD$3–4 million) for security, monthly repayments on a $10 million mortgage (about AUD$14.5 million), and the costs of maintaining household and professional staff.
Speaking engagements and side ventures
To ease the financial pressure, Harry is said to be pursuing speaking engagements, while Meghan continues to focus on commercial ventures through her lifestyle brand, As Ever, which sells products such as jam and flower sprinkles.
“Harry’s not really doing anything in America,” one source told the outlet.
“I think he’s banking on speaking engagements for income right now.”
The same source suggested that while there has been speculation Harry could start a new business, he and Meghan “don’t have the best track record” in that area.
“He’s (Harry’s) really great at service – look at the success of his Invictus charity. He really should just stick with that,” they said.
Uncertainty around Archewell
Harry remains closely involved with the Invictus Games, which he founded in 2014, but the couple has reportedly spent months reassessing the future of their joint charitable organisation, Archewell Philanthropies.
