Meghan Markle’s representatives reportedly explored a hypothetical book concept about her life “post-divorce” from Prince Harry, despite the couple remaining together, according to a Vanity Fair exposé.
Sources told Vanity Fair that Markle’s team had informal discussions with an unnamed publishing house to gauge interest in the concept. The timeline of these discussions remains unclear. The proposed book reportedly focused on a speculative narrative about Markle’s life after a potential split with Harry, not her previous marriage to Trevor Engelson.
The insider emphasized that the idea was purely exploratory, with no manuscript produced or offers made, as the Sussexes remain married. Another source suggested that if such a conversation occurred, it was likely initiated by the publisher rather than Markle herself.
Rumors about marital issues surfaced in late 2024 when the couple reduced joint public appearances. However, Harry directly addressed the speculation at the New York Times’ 2024 DealBook Summit, dismissing the claims and joking about repeated rumors of divorce and relocation.
Despite ongoing public scrutiny, insiders have described the couple’s relationship as strong, with one source claiming, “They’re very much in love.”
Markle and Harry, married since 2018, share two children, Prince Archie, 5, and Princess Lilibet, 3. The couple has faced intense public attention since stepping back from royal duties in 2020. They have been vocal about their experiences within the royal family while navigating professional projects and public criticism.
Vanity Fair’s report also revisits allegations of difficult behavior toward staff by Markle, adding another layer to the couple’s complex public narrative.
Representatives for Markle and Harry have not commented on the latest rumors.
