How are the mighty fallen!
This time a year ago, Prince Harry had the world at his feet. He was a handsome prince with a beautiful wife and a healthy male heir on the way, plenty of money, a free, five-bedroomed ‘cottage’ in a piece of England’s finest real estate, a dashing war record from two tours in Afghanistan, bags of honorary titles — including Captain General of the Royal Marines — all the cachet of being a senior player in the world’s grandest Royal Family but little of the responsibility (his big brother William is heir to the throne, so the pressure is off there), with plenty of spare time for frequent private jet jaunts round the world to hang out with celebrity chums like Sir Elton John.
Now, he’s a nobody. Or at best, an ex-Someone. Sure he gets to keep his aristocratic courtesy-title the Duke of Sussex, but he no longer retains the rank of royal prince or the honorific ‘His Royal Highness’; he has to pay back the £2.4 million that the UK taxpayer spent doing up his ‘cottage’; he has lost the role of Captain General — and all his other honorary military titles; he’ll no longer be paid to represent the Royal Family at official events; he’s now possibly even less famous than his wife, who wasn’t exactly A-list to begin with being only the ex-supporting-star from a fading TV show in its seventh series…
Where did it all go so wrong for the poor lad?
Simple. Ex-Prince Harry is perhaps the most tragic living example of Get Woke, Go Broke.

Actually by this time next decade, they could very well be full fledged billionaires.
Agreed. Save the judgment unless he pulls a Prince Andrew.
Learn to code!
LOL!
They're leaving royal life -- and those nice stipends -- because they want privacy. Yet, their plan for earning income is to leverage their fame into money. Absent being famous...they don't have anything marketable skills. So exactly how is this supposed to work? They're going to try to sell their fame and name, yet avoid the paparazzi and publicity??
Good luck with that.
No, I’m pretty sure his inheritance from Diana has been given to him and it is substantial.
Neither Harry nor M have any idea how things work in Hollywood and they seem to have gotten off to an embarrassing start.
He may want to work for a living but that’s far in his lifetime he has done what he’s been told. Seems Megan is ready to take over that role. .
Harry and Meghan will be billionaires in no time.
All they need to do is what other previously poor but not wealthy celebrities have done. Set up a Harry and Meghan foundation, and wait for the hundreds of millions to pour in. They’ll also be invited to hundreds of universities to do speeches, worth at least $500,000 a pop. The Hollywood elite and TV producers will also be after them to get their stories told, and books written, all to the tune of at least $100 million.
Chances are that they’ll end up richer than Prince Charles and Prince William, all without the headaches that come from being royalty.
Harry's worth $20M-$40M depending on who's counting.
If he's broke Delingpole's probably begging in the gutter.
Whatever these two do will be criticized by all the people determined to hate them. This couple can never win against the tabloid press and social media trolls.
What is with Harry’s stupid Napoleon poses?
“Pay to the order of Iron Balls McGinty....one dollar and nine cents!”
someone post on FB and called them a “power couple.” LOL
Certainly not broke, but most certainly broken. Prayers up.
Napoleon complex?
The divorce is going to happen much, much sooner than 5 years.
