Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, four years after stepping down from their royal duties, are reportedly feeling immense pressure as they continue their lives in the United States. The Duke of Sussex remains dedicated to his Invictus Games, while Meghan is set to launch her new cooking show on Netflix. However, this upcoming show is reportedly causing significant tension within their Montecito home.

The show, which has completed filming but lacks a release date, is a major source of stress for Meghan, which in turn is affecting Prince Harry. A source told Closer, “You can just imagine the kind of pressure it’s putting on her and by extension Harry. If this show flops, it will be a total disaster, and she knows it.”


The insider further revealed, “She’s on tenterhooks waiting for it to come out, and the stress it’s causing her is being felt by everyone around her, especially Harry.” The Duke and Duchess are reportedly struggling to cope with the pressures they face in the U.S. An insider told OK!, “This has been such a tough few months for Meghan and Harry, and the pressure they are under is a lot to handle. They feel they are constantly under attack.”


The source added, “When they first left the royals, they had so much support, and that support seems to be dwindling over time. They’re facing more and more criticism. Harry has been really hurt by the backlash over his award nomination, and Meghan is still reeling over the Spotify axe as she loved doing that podcast. She knows people want her to fail with her next project, so there’s quite a lot of tension in the house at the moment.”


This new cooking show follows the launch of Meghan’s lifestyle brand, American Riviera Orchard. Fans are eagerly awaiting to see if her cooking show will succeed, especially after the couple’s Archetypes podcast was shelved.


Despite the tension, Prince Harry’s primary concern remains Meghan’s happiness. A Closer report explained, “Harry certainly isn’t expecting her to create an empire. He loves her no matter what, and at the end of the day, he just wants her to be happy.”


Sky News Australia presenter Rita Panahi provided additional details about the cooking project, saying, “Meghan Markle has just wrapped up filming on a new cooking and home show for Netflix. The show, part of the Sussex's’ $100 million deal, was filmed at a property near their Montecito mansion in Los Angeles and focuses on the joys of cooking, gardening, entertaining, and friendship.”


Panahi added, “It’s apparently going to focus on the joys of cooking, gardening, entertaining, and friendship, and I’ve got to say, it sounds bloody awful.”
