Meghan Markle is facing renewed accusations of using her royal title as a 'cash grab' after commentators claimed she is still leaning on her duchess status while she and Prince Harry reportedly struggle with the cost of their $15 million Montecito home.
The couple stepped back from frontline royal duties in January 2020 and moved to the US, where they set out a new life built around media deals, production work and commercial partnerships. But according to claims reported by OK! Magazine, several of those ventures have faltered, including Meghan's cancelled Netflix show, and sources now say the pair need millions of dollars a year to cover mortgage and lifestyle costs at their California estate. Those financial claims have not been confirmed by the Sussexes or their representatives.
