Experts say that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s breakup could have adverse consequences for their budding Hollywood careers. Therefore, if they really do not heal, it is likely that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex will choose to keep their relationship status a secret.

Recently, more and more A-list couples have secretly broken up without announcing it to the world, typically Jada Pinkett and Will Smith separated since 2016 but revealed it in October 2023. A few days later, Page Six reported that actress Meryl Streep and her husband Don Gummer also separated for more than 6 years.

In an interview on Mirror , relationship expert Louella Alderson, co-founder of the dating app So Syncd, said that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle could follow the above couples if they decide to divorce. The reason is said to be that in addition to being connected by love, their relationship is also for business purposes. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are not just a calling, they are also a brand they created for their careers in Hollywood.

“Harry and Meghan form a lucrative team and their joint venture has the potential to continue to generate significant income for their family. Despite their individual efforts, their partnership proved to be beneficial for both of them in terms of work. If they break up, it could affect their careers, especially for a couple who built their brand on their relationship,” Alderson explains.

According to the female expert, for those just starting to build a brand, the media attention surrounding the end of a marriage will be difficult to deal with. In addition, they need to maintain their families to create a healthy environment for their children to grow up.

“It is normal for celebrities to maintain a united front in the eyes of the public. They may choose to present themselves as a solid and happy couple even if they have actually been separated for many years. This is often to avoid inevitable media attention and speculation, and to protect their image and brand,” Alderson assessed.

Regarding their trip to the Caribbean in October, Alderson said that the Sussexes needed some private space after constantly being closely monitored, with every move being dissected.

Another expert, Kate Mansfield, also agreed with Alderson’s argument. She believes that Harry and Meghan are under more pressure to be happy and live together as a family than other couples due to their background as royal members.

“We only have to look at King Charles and Queen Camilla to know for sure that the royal family has a tradition of keeping secrets, even for long periods of time,” Mansfield said.

She commented that the red-haired prince and the Suits actress are still far away from “going their separate ways” in the future. According to female experts, the two new Hollywood stars are smart enough and recognize the value of keeping themselves in a healthy relationship, knowing how to balance personal space and family time.

Previously, Harry and Meghan were rumored to have a falling out in July. At that time, Radar Online ‘s source said Harry found it difficult to adapt to Meghan’s noisy and scandalous Hollywood world. However, Page Six quickly denied the above information, affirming that there was no separation.
