Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been in a quagmire of criticism ever since renouncing Buckingham. Nonetheless, they are also held high by admirers who put them on the pedestal of public order. However, it seems one thing has started to cost the other. Their pursuit of freedom and autonomy may be undermining their public image. As the couple navigates this delicate balance, the latest reports have not spoken in favor of the Sussex couple and their circle.

While no such indication has been ever delivered by the couple, reports by PR experts suggest they are running short of their all-time supporters.

As reported by The Express, publicist Ron Torossian noted that Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s high-profile friendships have cooled in recent years. Either “the lack of public support or the lack of gifting, would speak to the cooling of these relationships,” having turned the couple less appealing said the PR expert in his remarks on the sidelined royal couple.

Ron Torossian further attributed this public distancing to the desire to avoid fallout with the British Royal Family, rather than an issue with the Duke and Duchess themselves. The couple's controversies, despite their attempts to step back from public life, while also severing their ties with the UK Sovereign, continue to polarise and drive others away, thought the expert.

Speaking of driving people off, who exactly have the Sussexes faced a fallout with in recent years?

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle emerged as a relatable modern power couple after settling across the ocean. They had a strong support system, with celebrities like the Beckhams, Clooneys, and star friends like Serena Williams having their backs. However, in recent times, some of these friendships have fizzled out. While the Clooneys did not publicly bash the couple, the reported 'furious' fallout with David Beckham and his family has led to a significant loss of popularity.

The once-solid bond between these power couples has weakened, leaving Prince Harry and Meghan Markle to face the consequences of their strained relationships. Nonetheless, their social media appearances and recent public engagements have proved they still have their closest allies to back them up.
