Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, has reportedly ordered her husband, Prince Harry, to get a job as the couple faces an $8 million money crunch.

The National Enquirer’s latest cover story claims that Markle is worried about their financial situation and is urging Harry to solve the crisis.

However, the tabloid’s readers may not fully understand the intricacies of the royal family’s finances and how the deal is structured for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex to step down as senior members of the firm.

The article paints Markle as the villain, with a high-level palace courtier alleging that she is terrified her Hollywood dreams will be shattered by the financial nightmare.

The couple is allegedly in debt due to expenses such as their rented home in Vancouver, the agreement to pay back $3 million to the British government for renovations to their home base in the UK, Frogmore Cottage, and expected future security costs.

The outlet’s dubious source asserts that Markle told Harry, “We need money, now.”

In other news, Markle and Prince Harry have been warned against selling their £11 million mansion in Montecito, California, as its value could be halved in just two months due to inflation gripping the US.

Real estate expert Mukhtar Jabal said that even the mega-rich like the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are feeling the pinch, with inflation running at 9.1% in America.

The couple bought the stunning nine-bedroom and seven-acre property in June 2020, where they now live with their two children, Archie Mountbatten-Windsor and Lilibet Diana-Windsor.

The mansion, officially known as Shadow of Riven Rock, features a spa, two-bedroom guest house, library, games room, arcade, cinema, and private gym.

It was once available to rent via Gigster for an incredible $700 an hour for productions.

Despite boasting neighbors like Oprah Winfrey, Ellen DeGeneres, Katy Perry, Orlando Bloom, and their daughter Daisy Dove, the property market in Montecito has not been immune from rising inflation, which has cooled property prices across the US.

According to data from realtor.com, the median property price in Montecito nosedived from £9.12 million in May to £4.33 million in July, equating to around a 45% drop.

However, Mr. Jabal is confident that the market will recover after inflation is tamed, which is predicted to fall back to around 2% by the end of 2023, according to the International Monetary Fund.

He believes that Markle and Prince Harry have made a good investment and urges them not to sell their mansion as they would lose money.

Instead, they should sit on it for a few years until the market rebounds and starts making them a profit.

The couple’s home was recently the subject of two intruder scares in just 12 days, with police being called on both occasions amid reports that someone had gained access to the property.

Both intrusions were recorded as trespassing, property crimes, and suspicious circumstances by police.

In conclusion, Megan Markle’s alleged order for Prince Harry to get a job comes amidst an $8 million money crunch that the couple is facing.

They are reportedly in debt due to expenses such as their rented home in Vancouver and expected future security costs.

Meanwhile, they have been warned against selling their £11 million mansion in Montecito as its value could be halved in just two months due to rising inflation in the US.

Real estate expert Mukhtar Jabal believes that the market will recover after inflation is tamed, and urges the couple not to sell their mansion but to wait for the market to rebound and start making them a profit.
