Prince Harry’s gap year in Lesotho in 2004 led to him setting up the charity Sentebale in 2006 in memory of his mother to fight HIV/AIDS in Lesotho and Botswana.
Before a damning report came out this week into its operations by the Charity Commission, Harry had already stepped back in March.
He is said to be devastated. What’s puzzling is that Meghan has remained silent. No public words of support. Maybe behind closed doors she’s been his rock.
Meanwhile, she celebrated her 44th birthday last Monday. On Instagram she posted a picture in which she thanked ‘my husband’ in passing, she didn’t name him and there was no sign of Harry.
While Harry is battling court cases and losing his beloved charity, Meghan seems to be on a high with her As Ever brand and Netflix show.
In successful partnerships, there is always one person to lift you up when you fall down. Without someone like this, life is infinitely harder and less fun.

Is trouble brewing behind palace walls?
Meghan Markle’s decision to remain silent while Prince Harry faces one of his most public setbacks in years has left royal watchers raising their eyebrows — and asking whether the fairy-tale image of their marriage is starting to crack.
Harry’s rough week
The Duke of Sussex has been hit with fresh controversy surrounding his beloved charity, Sentebale. Reports suggest internal disputes, negative headlines, and a growing sense of frustration have taken a toll on him personally. For a man who has long worn his heart on his sleeve, this is no small storm to weather.
Where’s Meghan?
What’s striking isn’t just Harry’s trouble — it’s Meghan’s conspicuous absence from the narrative. No heartfelt public statement. No joint photo op offering support. No casual “standing by my man” moment on social media. For a couple who once prided themselves on presenting a united front, the silence is deafening.
Calculated… or cold?
Some say Meghan is playing the long game, refusing to add fuel to the media fire. Others whisper that this could signal emotional distance — perhaps a sign that the pressures of public life are finally seeping into their private world.
The cracks we’re not supposed to see
Every marriage has its challenges, but when you’re the Sussexes, every subtle shift becomes a headline. This time, Meghan’s silence feels less like a PR move and more like a glimpse at a relationship navigating deeper, unspoken tensions.
What’s next?
Will Meghan step forward to publicly back Harry, or will her silence stretch into the kind of gap tabloids love to fill with speculation? For now, one thing’s certain: when the Duchess doesn’t speak, the world only gets louder.
