Rumors are swirling once more, this time suggesting a potential divorce between Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.
Should the couple part ways, it could finally answer a lingering question that’s sparked endless speculation: do their children, Archie and Lilibet, actually exist? If Harry and Meghan were to divorce without any mention of child support or custody arrangements, it would raise eyebrows and perhaps even suggest a deeper mystery. Either the children are real, or the Duke and Duchess have orchestrated one of the most elaborate deceptions in royal history.
Currently, sources like Bark Jack and X indicate that Harry and Meghan are still together, though their relationship may be somewhat rocky. It’s rumored that the Palace is quietly preparing to support Harry should a divorce happen, not as a way to reinstate him as a working royal, but out of familial concern. However, any assistance from the Palace is expected to come with caution; they reportedly won’t intervene until official divorce proceedings are underway. Even then, the royal family’s support is unlikely to include financial assistance for Harry’s legal battles. Instead, the Palace might provide a few carefully crafted statements for Harry to use in his favor. This situation could become even more complex if Prince William ascends the throne in the midst of this family drama, potentially leaving Harry with minimal backing from the institution.
If a divorce does happen, it could spark questions about Harry’s role as a father. Would he, for instance, become more publicly involved in his children’s lives? And what of Archie and Lilibet’s status in the line of succession—would they maintain their places, or would a custody change complicate matters? If Harry and Meghan added more children to their family down the line, it could potentially disrupt the royal lineage and create new challenges for the institution.
The potential custody implications could offer a definitive answer about the children’s existence. If a custody dispute arises, it would confirm that Archie and Lilibet are indeed real. However, if no such documents are filed, it might feed speculation that the children were merely a story created for public relations. Imagine the Palace’s reaction if they were forced to admit that Harry and Meghan’s children were a fabrication all along; such a revelation could send shockwaves through the media and public alike.
The question of their children’s origins also fuels debate. Were Archie and Lilibet truly born to Meghan, and are they biologically Harry’s offspring? Were they born in a hospital or perhaps somewhere private and mysterious? These questions would no doubt continue to captivate tabloids, providing fodder for stories for years.
Adding to the intrigue is Harry and Meghan’s current approach to public life. Just because Harry isn’t seen frequently doesn’t mean he’s disappeared; the couple is well-practiced at living out of the public eye, stepping into the spotlight only when it suits their narrative. Behind closed doors in California, they could very well be strategizing ways to keep themselves relevant in the headlines.
