A fresh chapter is unfolding for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle as the duo embark on distinct professional paths — a move royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams describes as "trying something new."

This strategic separation reportedly aims to rejuvenate their public personas and counteract recent declines in popularity.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle 'kept calm and carried on' amid numerous false reports in late 2023 and early 2024 claiming their foundation was in financial ruin.

Fitzwilliams observes that the couple's individual endeavors have "been successful," suggesting that this approach allows them to "underline the fact they’re still around." This shift comes amid reports of faltering public interest and the need to reestablish their brand identity.

Harry has been making solo appearances, notably attending the WellChild Awards in London without Meghan. The expert notes that Harry is "doing tremendously well" on his own, indicating a newfound confidence in his solo engagements. These independent ventures are seen as a means to "raise their profile" and demonstrate their individual capabilities.

Meghan, on the other hand, has been focusing on her own projects, including attending events and engaging in initiatives separate from Harry. This professional separation has been hailed by Sussex insiders as a strategic move to "experiment with brand image" and explore new opportunities.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex left the monarchy in 2020.

However, this approach is not without its challenges.

Fitzwilliams points out that the couple has previously relied on "trashing the royal family" to maintain public interest — a tactic that may no longer be sustainable. He suggests that their current strategy is an attempt to "heal their rift" with the Crown and establish a more positive public image.

The Sussexes' decision to pursue separate professional paths also apparently reflects a deliberate effort to redefine their roles and responsibilities, according to a Montecito source. "By engaging in individual projects, they aim to showcase their versatility and commitment to various causes," they said. "This move also allows them to address different audiences and expand their influence beyond the confines of their joint brand."

The insider additionally pointed out, "As they navigate this new terrain, the world watches closely. Their ability to successfully manage separate careers while maintaining a united personal front will be critical in determining the long-term viability of this strategy. The Duke and Duchess are on a journey that serves as a testament to their resilience and adaptability in the face of public scrutiny and evolving personal dynamics."

The Sussex duo got married in 2018.

In the grand narrative of royal affairs, Harry and Meghan's professional split marks a significant departure from tradition when it comes to famous "power couples."

Only time will tell how this bold experiment will reshape their legacy and influence within the royal sphere and beyond.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have not been back to Britain as a pair since Queen Elizabeth II's funeral in September 2022.
