A royal commentator has suggested Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are “going their separate ways” in terms of their professional projects.

The Duke, aged 40, and his 43-year-old Duchess have been spotted going solo at various events, with Meghan gracing the LA Children’s Hospital Gala and a digital wellness event in Santa Barbara, while Harry has been globe-trotting to New York, London, and South Africa for his charitable work.

On the Sun ‘s Royal Exclusive show, Royal expert Phil Dampier remarked: “I think Meghan is genuinely doing a lot of work in the background for this Netflix project and American Riviera Orchard.”

He added: “She probably wants a bit of a hiatus so that she can launch that. As for Harry, obviously he’s been back and forth with a few charities.”

He also noted: “They do seem to be going their separate ways. There’s no evidence that they’re splitting up at the moment personally.”

Meanwhile, Renae Smith, PR guru and head of Atticism, told Express.co.uk that the Sussexes’ choice to carve out individual paths could be advantageous in the long run but might fuel public gossip in the interim.

Smith said: “I think their decision to pursue individual brands could indeed work in their favour over the long term, although it’s bound to spark a fair amount of public speculation in the short term.

Discussing the Royal couple’s individual pursuits, she remarked: “From a PR perspective, this shift might allow each of them to create distinct brands that better reflect their different priorities and resonate more coherently with their individual audiences.”

Prince Harry, during his visit to Africa last month, had an emotional reunion with his old pal, Prince Seeiso of Lesotho. Around a bonfire, he delivered a heartfelt speech about the impact of his charity Sentebale, which aids young people affected by or at risk of HIV.

Prince Harry expressed: “We’re hitting the targets, not just Sentebale but all of the departments are, and it’s making a massive difference, and it is this surge of energy and optimism and the voice of young people ranging from six to 25 – and the biggest difference of which really needs more work, is when people from the top start listening.”

Meanwhile, Meghan Markle dazzled in a striking red gown at the LA Children’s Hospital Gala, rubbing shoulders with stars like Demi Lovato, Kaley Cuoco, Jamie Lee Curtis, Jimmy Kimmel, and Colin Hanks.

Following her appearance, the Sussex website updated with a message stating: “This weekend, Meghan, The Duchess of Sussex attended the biennial Children’s Hospital Los Angeles (CHLA) Gala, an inspiring event dedicated to celebrating the exceptional services provided to children across LA.

“Invited as a special guest by CHLA’s president and CEO, Paul Viviano, The Duchess was proud to stand alongside esteemed guests in support of this vital cause.”
