Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are spicing things up as they ‘experiment’ with ‘new devices’ amid current separation

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been noticeably absent from public events together recently, with their last joint appearance being a video message for a charitable cause. Since then, the couple has appeared at separate high-profile events, raising questions about the status of their relationship. However, rather than signaling any trouble in paradise, this shift seems to be part of a strategic “professional separation.”

While rumors about potential marital issues have circulated, there are no credible signs that divorce is imminent. Instead, it appears that the couple is experimenting with a new approach to their public appearances and brand strategy. Royal author Richard Fitzwilliams suggests that Harry and Meghan are rethinking how they present themselves to the world. By making solo appearances at galas, parties, and sporting events, they are creating space to maintain their public profiles without being perceived as a constantly attached duo.

This “experiment” seems to be a deliberate tactic to promote Brand Sussex more effectively. Previously, their joint appearances, like royal tours to Nigeria and Colombia, worked well, but now they’re exploring the impact of showcasing themselves individually. Fitzwilliams notes that this change is strategic, especially since the couple has paused sharing any royal-related gossip, possibly due to the sensitive nature of Harry’s family dynamics, such as King Charles and Kate Middleton’s recent health issues.

As an example, Harry recently attended Invictus events in Vancouver alone, which would have typically been a joint outing with Meghan. Given the couple’s fondness for Canada, Meghan’s absence suggests that they’ve mutually decided to pursue solo endeavors for a time. Ultimately, the idea of “experimentation” could be a way for the Sussexes to inject some variety into their routine, giving them room to grow both individually and as a couple in the public eye.
