<p id=”par-1_56″>Since leaving the royal family, <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/tag/meghan-markle/”>Meghan Markle</a> has been focusing on her own business ventures, her family, and building a new name for herself. The Duchess of Sussex stepped back from her working royal role in 2020 after she and Prince Harry didn’t agree with the treatment they received by the press <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/meghan-markle-surprising-royal-decision-did-not-go-down-well-aides.html/”>and the other royals</a>.</p>
<p id=”par-2_40″>However, Harry and Meghan have had some difficulty rebuilding their reputations after telling their side of the story regarding what really went down behind palace walls. Now, they’re distancing themselves from each other with the hope of forming solo reputations.</p>

<p id=”par-3_63″>Harry and Meghan were always a duo, and while they seem to have a strong marriage, they have caused some controversy together. It mostly stems from their decision to speak out about what happened during their time in the royal family. It’s been hard for Harry and Meghan to find their footing in the United States, and now, they’re taking a new approach.</p>
<p id=”par-4_36″>Harry has been doing more solo ventures without his wife, and Meghan is reportedly taking a “hiatus” from the spotlight in order to focus on her cooking show and her new lifestyle brand, <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/meghan-markles-american-riviera-orchard-make-so-much-more-sense-something-different-lifestyle-brand-commentator-says-it-would-be-fantastic.html/”>American Riviera Orchard</a>.</p>
<p id=”par-5_86″>“I think Meghan is genuinely doing a lot of work in the background for this Netflix project and American Riviera Orchard,” royal expert Phil Dampier told <a href=”https://www.thesun.co.uk/royals/31454881/meghan-harry-marriage-separate-ways/”>The Sun</a>. “She probably wants a bit of a hiatus so that she can launch that. As for Harry, obviously he’s been back and forth with a few charities. Harry and Meghan are taking on different projects likely with the hope that they will be able to build separate fanbases that know them for passions outside of their royal work.</p>

<p id=”par-6_38″>There has been plenty of discussion surrounding Harry and Meghan’s relationship ever since they started spending less time together in public, however, their decision to take separate business paths does not reflect the current state of their marriage.</p>
<p id=”par-7_77″>“They do seem to be going their separate ways [in business]. There’s no evidence that they’re splitting up at the moment personally,” Dampier said. The two have battled divorce rumors before, but Harry and Meghan have never showed any substantial signs of struggle in their marriage. In fact, their body language seems to suggest that the two are quite strong together. Perhaps their decision to <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/prince-harry-meghan-markle-brand-toxic-expert-says-rebuild-without-each-other.html/”>separate their business ventures</a> will benefit their brand in the long run.</p>
