The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have stood united for a long time, navigating numerous stormy tides since they relocated from the UK. However, recent conflicts appear to have strained their collaborative efforts as updates cue a never-seen-before tension meddling in between. According to a source speaking to OK!, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are no longer working together as closely as before, with a "growing rift" reportedly emerging between them.

Reflecting on the support they once had after leaving the UK, the source also commented on their declining popularity, noting they feel constantly “under attack”. Additionally, recent events such as the backlash Prince Harry faced over the ESPY Award nomination and concerns voiced by the Afghan veteran’s mother have taken a toll on marital bliss. As for Markle, she is reportedly still affected by Spotify's cancellation of the Archetypes podcast, which has heightened her fears of facing failure in future projects.

Not long ago, Tom Quinn told The Mirror US about what he perceives as a "growing rift" between Meghan Markle and Prince Harry. According to the royal author, this distance stems primarily from Markle's increasing tension that her life is not unfolding as planned. Earlier, Quinn reported on their rising anxieties about surveys indicating a decline in her and Prince Harry's popularity in the US, contrasting with the initial support they received after moving there.

Quinn suggested that Markle, who he claims "loves media attention," views their diminishing fame in the United States as a factor contributing to their growing apart. All in all, his allegations coupled with the claims of the latest source imply that with less interest from the American public, the strain on their marriage has become evident, causing troubles in what was once thought to be the paradise for the couple.
