Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are reportedly putting on a 'professional facade' to cover the 'trouble' in their marriage.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex were snapped together hand-in-hand whilst galavanting in the states last week - a rare joint appearance by the couple reports the Scottish Daily Express.
And whilst the pair were full of smiles, royal author Lady Colin Campbell reckons it was all for show.
The snaps were taken by celebrity Karl Larsen - who often claims to be friends with Meghan's dad Thomas Markle and the Sussexes themself - who was determined that the pair were "very much in love" and "happy together".
However, socialite Lady C, who has penned seven booked books detailing the life of the royal is sceptical about their picture-perfect relationship.
Speaking to GB News she said anything Larsen says is "suspect" and the Harry and Meghan marriage was in "big trouble".
Referencing Meghan's podcast Archetypes being ditched by Spotify, she added: "As soon as money problems come into the room, you can depend on it - love is flying out the window and love was flying out of the window from before."
But she added that "doesn't necessarily mean they're going to get divorced tomorrow or the day after tomorrow". She added: "They are a professional couple while presenting a professional facade to the public. And only idiots would believe any of it. It's all basically yet another con."
We reported that Harry's next project will likely be a Netflix series about Africa, a continent that he holds great affection for. But it is likely to be a solo endeavour despite him famously taking Meghan there on their third date.
Reports had also suggested Meghan had grown frustrated with 'Brand Sussex' and wanted to be a 'one-woman show', at least professionally. A major sign of her new intent was her signing a deal with Hollywood agency WME on her own.
