Meghan Markle misunderstood royal financial independence realities

Meghan Markle had some misconceptions about marrying Prince Harry. Coming from Hollywood, she assumed that being a royal meant a larger fortune. However, she quickly learned that royal finances are different from what she expected. Royal author Quinn notes that Meghan was surprised to find out the extent of Harry's wealth. While he has a significant amount of money, it is not as free-flowing as Hollywood wealth. A palace insider explained that the lifestyle of royals is very different from that of Hollywood stars. Royals do not control their fortunes like movie stars do. They follow strict traditions and have limits on how they can spend money. Quinn suggests that Meghan, who was raised in a different environment, never considered these details before marrying. Feeling restricted by royal life, Meghan and Harry decided to break away from tradition. They have since built their own brand and business, aligning more with Hollywood than the British monarchy. Now they enjoy a lifestyle that suits them better, leaving behind royal limitations.
