When two people from entirely different worlds come together and create their own magical romance, it makes the entire world believe in a fairytale love story. When the world got to know about the stirring romance between the American actress Meghan Markle and the English Royal, Prince Harry, people could not believe their eyes and ears. Their happiness escalated when they saw the sizzling couple tying the knot 5 years ago. Since then, despite the struggles, the Sussexes have been going strong.

However, before their grand royal wedding, the Royal Family did not think the romance between Prince Harry and Meghan Markle would last longer. But why?

Why did the Royals think the romance between Meghan Markle and Prince Harry would not last?

After leaving their royal status, the Sussexes moved to the USA and settled their little world there. After going through a lot of trouble, they finally made their documentary, Harry and Meghan, with Netflix. In the second episode of the documentary, the Duke of Sussex revealed the only reason his family thought their relationship would not last. “Oh, she’s an American actress, this won’t last long,” said the Duke while remembering Markle’s first meeting with the Royal Family.

Although the Royals were thrilled to meet Prince Harry’s then-girlfriend, they did not believe in their love story lasting forever. While the Duke made the statement, the Duchess also shared her sentiments. She said, “The actress thing was the biggest problem.” The reason she said that was because she believed it was easy for the English people to typecast Hollywood and had every reason to doubt it.

However, after all these years of sharing their lives, the Sussexes are together and are parents to their beautiful 2 children. The California-based royals have often faced criticism for their romance from people around the world. They even compared them with the Prince and Princess of Wales as well. Reportedly, people will have yet another chance to look at both couples doing different things on the same day.

The Sussexes and the Prince and Princess of Wales will make public appearances on the same day

Often, fans have compared the former American actress with Kate Middleton and their respective husbands as well. On World Mental Health Day, both couples will appear in public, although on the opposite sides of the Atlantic. While the Prince and Princess of Wales will attend several events in the UK, the Sussexes will host their first in-person Archewell Foundation event.

The former royals made remarks about the Royal Family members in their Netflix documentary. Therefore, the relationships between them became even more strained. In the documentary itself, the 39-year-old Duke refused to go back to his home. And now, both the Royal Family and the California-based royals are moving ahead in their lives separately.
