The honeymoon stage has allegedly been long over for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.

In its April 18 issue, Life & Style claimed that Prince Harry and Markle have also been leading separate lives two years after they relocated to Montecito.

“Harry has gone from being holed up in Montecito to suddenly doing his own thing. He isn’t home much anymore and sometimes vanishes for days,” the source said.

The source said that the Duchess of Sussex doesn’t necessarily mind the space that she has with Prince Harry. After all, she’s an independent woman who wants to do her own thing every now and then.

However, insiders are warning the couple to bounce back as quickly as possible because they’ve been distant from each other since the pandemic started.

“Things started going downhill during the pandemic. It was a stressful time for Harry and Meghan. They bickered and argued about the dumbest stuff. Meghan can be very demanding, and Harry is more laidback. They clashed,” the source said.

After their second child was born, Prince Harry and Markle allegedly saw each other’s negative side.

“They really saw each other for who they are and picked on each other’s flaws. There were nights he slept in the guesthouse so they could have some time to reset. A major issue that has lingered from the very start of their marriage involves Harry’s friends. Meghan’s never got along with a lot of them. She interfered in their WhatsApp messages and tried to block him from seeing them,” the source said.

As a result, Prince Harry couldn’t help but feel trapped in his marriage. And it didn’t also take very long before he started losing the friends that he thought he would keep for life.

Since the couple resides in Montecito, Markle is able to hang out with her friends regularly and Prince Harry couldn’t help but feel jealous. And the Duchess of Sussex isn’t allegedly sensitive enough to realize that her husband is struggling in Los Angeles.

However, one should take the tabloid’s claims with a grain of salt.

This isn’t the first time that Prince Harry and Markle were rumored to be having marital problems. But no one has been able to provide concrete proof that this is the case.

As of late, all the stories about the couple’s alleged marriage problems are just based on hearsays.
