In a past few days, many reports have recently ensued that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have hit a rocky phase in their marriage and many sources reported that a divorce is on the way as the couple was spotted separately over the last few months.
The Duke, however, put a rest to the rumors online as he addressed the speculations and gave fans an update on how his marriage with Markle is doing. Here’s everything he said.
Prince Harry Speaks Up On Divorce Rumours With Meghan Markle
Prince Harry spoke with columnist Andrew Ross Sorkin for 35 minutes during a summit in New York on Tuesday about a variety of topics, including the public’s curiosity about his private life, according to Fox News. Royal analysts speculated that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s marriage might be ending after their recent separate public appearances.
The Duke talked about the rumors and said, “Apparently we’ve bought or moved house 10, 12 times. We’ve apparently divorced maybe 10, 12 times as well. So it’s just like, what?'”

He added, “It’s hard to keep up with, but that’s why you just sort of ignore it. The people I feel most sorry about are the trolls. Their hopes are just built and built, and it’s like, ‘Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes,’ and then it doesn’t happen. So I feel sorry for them. Genuinely, I do.”

The Duke of Sussex also remarked how his conversation might be blown out of proportion and shredded into pieces of speculation as the audience laughed. He added that he had “no doubt” that his words “will be spun or twisted somehow against me, and maybe you yourself will be trolled relentlessly.”

But it’s not something Harry is a stranger to. He also added that this is a treatment he has received ever since he was a young royal.
“I’ve had a lived experience since I was a kid. I’ve seen stories written about myself that aren’t exactly based on reality. I’ve seen stories about members of my family, friends, strangers, all sorts of people. And I think when you grow up within that environment, you do find yourself questioning the validity of the information but also what other people are thinking of that as well, and how dangerous it can be over the course of time.”
