Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are reportedly facing internal tensions, with royal experts suggesting the couple is “at war with themselves” as they embark on separate solo engagements. For almost three weeks, the Duke of Sussex has been traveling through New York City, the United Kingdom and Africa, while the Duchess of Sussex has remained in California with their children.
Following Harry’s international commitments, Meghan stepped out alone to attend the LA Children’s Hospital benefit gala, where she wore a recycled red Carolina Herrera dress. The couple’s separate appearances have sparked discussions among royal commentators about the state of their professional and personal dynamic.
On TalkTVHost Kevin O’Sullivan spoke to royal commentator Kinsey Schofield and claimed the pair appear to be competing against each other. “I think professionally they are now at war with themselves. “She’s trying to upstage him, he’s trying to upstage her, so it goes from bad to worse,” he said.
Kinsey Schofield echoed this sentiment, adding: “It’s almost an act of desperation. I understand what you’re talking about when you say it’s almost like they’re out of sync.” She suggested that the couple’s recent solo engagements could be a sign of deeper issues within their partnership, as they both seem to be making their mark independently.
While the couple continues to attract attention through their individual activities, reports that they are out of sync and competing professionally raise questions about the future of their united front. As they navigate their paths outside the royal family, observers speculate whether their different goals will bring them closer together or create greater distance.
