The Initial Rumors
It all started when certain sources, like a Twitter user named “Barrister Law USA HR,” claimed that Prince Harry had officially filed for divorce. However, no receipts were shown to back up this claim. Then came another tweet, this time from a royal fan account, stating that a local Monito newspaper had reported that Harry and Meghan were living separate lives and possibly heading for divorce. This was enough to set off a firestorm of speculation.
The Monito Newspaper’s Article
Naturally, I had to investigate. I tracked down the article in question from Monito Journal, written by Richard Minards. The piece is part of a series called “The Grapevine” and was released a few days ago. In it, Harry makes a rare comment about their daughter, Princess Lilibet, inheriting Meghan’s thick, long hair. It’s the usual fluffy, royal news.
However, what caused the uproar was the final part of the article. Minards writes: “It was Meghan’s second public appearance without Harry since her visit to the Children’s Hospital Los Angeles… British royal experts continue to speculate that the couple may be living increasingly separate lives.”
So, has Monito Journal really confirmed their divorce? No. The newspaper simply quoted opinions from royal commentators, echoing what others have speculated about Harry and Meghan’s relationship.
The Real Story: Speculation vs. Confirmation
This brings us to the heart of the matter: Is this article truly confirming a divorce? No, it’s not. It’s merely citing the speculations of royal experts and commentators who believe Harry and Meghan are living separate lives. There’s no official confirmation, and the newspaper isn’t claiming they’ve discovered this information firsthand.
The media frenzy surrounding this has blown things out of proportion, with some outlets suggesting the Monito Journal itself is reporting the separation as fact. But in reality, they are only passing on what others have speculated.
Opinions from Both Sides
Some, like the popular Vintage Read Show, believe that Harry and Meghan are indeed living apart but are waiting for the right time to make the divorce official. According to their hot take, the couple is dividing assets and preparing to announce the split, though nothing is yet confirmed.
On the other hand, commentators like “Barrister Law USA HR” have doubled down on their claims, insisting Prince Harry has already filed for divorce. However, no evidence has been provided to support this claim, leaving it in the realm of speculation.
Meghan Markle’s PR Strategy?
Amidst all this, Meghan seems to be trying to control the narrative. According to Heat Magazine, Meghan is struggling with the time apart from Harry. A source close to the Duchess claims that while they’ve agreed to focus on separate projects, Meghan is having a harder time adjusting than Harry, who seems to be thriving in his solo appearances. This “lonely duchess” image has some speculating that Meghan is trying to channel a Princess Diana-like narrative, portraying herself as abandoned and isolated.
Final Thoughts
So, to wrap things up: Has a local Monito newspaper just confirmed Harry and Meghan’s divorce? No. What they’ve done is quote the opinions of others who believe the couple may be heading in that direction. It’s not confirmation, just speculation.
