Meghan Markle and Prince Harry nearly broke the internet in January 2020 when they announced they were taking a step back from their royal duties. It left royal fans with a myriad of questions, mostly, what it would mean for pair’s future.
As it turns out, Meghan Markle still has a huge net worth despite taking a step back from her role as Duchess of Sussex.
Meghan and her hubby are now happily living in Los Angeles, far from the intense scrutiny of British tabloids. In additional to creating a new life for themselves in America, the pair are crafting careers that are financially independent from the British monarch.
According to Business Insider, they’ve signed a multiyear deal with Netflix through their new production company. They’ve also recently inked a deal with Spotify for a podcast program. However, even before doing so, the couple was worth about $30 million together, the site reports.

If you’re wondering where the cool $30 million came from, the majority can be attributed to Prince Harry. Between his inheritance from Princess Diana and an annual allowance from Prince Charles, he’s worth approximately $25 million on his own.

Of course, before marrying Harry, Meghan had a successful career as a television actress. She starred in the USA Network drama Suits, where she spent six years building up her net worth to about $5 million, Insider reports.
