Meghan and Harry ‘moving back into trusted sphere’ after Hollywood break fails

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry haven’t had it easy since they announced they would be stepping down from their royal roles. Their split from the Royal Family was already a heavy burden for the couple but the allegations they have levelled against the institution have only further exacerbated the rift with Harry’s closest relatives. And a series of hurdles on their path to success have left many wondering what the Duke and Duchess of Sussex will do next to secure not only their livelihood but also their global position. Royal expert Natalie Oliveri suggested Harry and Meghan already offered a glimpse into their plans – and a celebrity lifestyle no longer appears to be on the agenda for the couple. Oliveri argued a recent video the Duke and Duchess released ahead of Meghan’s 42nd birthday last week signals a significant turn back towards a “trusted sphere” they know works for them.

The Duke will be joining close pal Nacho Figueras to attend the ISPS Sports Values Summit-Special Edition in Tokyo on August 9.

He will then be heading back to Europe in September to attend this year’s edition of the Invictus Games in Dusseldorf, Germany. While Meghan is not expected to accompany him to Asia, she has rarely missed joining him for the Games since before the pair married. Oliveri suggested the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s new strategy suggests they understand following the royal playbook could be a safer option for them. She continued: “If Hollywood is turning its back on the Sussexes, their renewed focus on charity appears to be the only avenue left for them.

Announcing the creation of the Responsible Technology Youth Power Fund, Harry and Meghan shared a special video showing them as they contact members of the first cohort of the project to confirm their selection.
