Meghan Markle Net Worth: How Much Do The Couple Have?
What's Meghan Markle's net worth?
Meghan might have a load of problems RN considering the fact that she's stepping down as a senior royal with her hubby, but we know one thing that's definitely not on her list of worries… her bank balance. Because when it comes to cash, Meghan Markle is rolling in the dough!
Earlier this week, the pair made the announcement that shook the world – instead of being part of the Royal Family, they'd work to become financially independent.

Although it's not exactly clear what this will entail, it'll mean that the couple will actually have to go out and get their own jobs, rather than relying on their Royal allowance.
What's Her Net Worth?
But with plenty of dosh stored away, it's clear than Megs and Haz won't go without in their new life, but exactly how much does the former Suits actress-turned IRL princess have?
"After many months of reflection and internal discussions, we have chosen to make a transition this year in starting to carve out a progressive new role within this institution. We intend to step back as 'senior' members of the Royal Family and work to become financially independent, while continuing to fully support Her Majesty The Queen. It is with your encouragement, particularly over the last few years, that we feel prepared to make this adjustment. We now plan to balance our time between the United Kingdom and North America, continuing to honour our duty to The Queen, the Commonwealth, and our patronages. This geographic balance will enable us to raise our son with an appreciation for the royal tradition into which he was born, while also providing our family with the space to focus on the next chapter, including the launch of our new charitable entity. We look forward to sharing the full details of this exciting next step in due course, as we continue to collaborate with Her Majesty The Queen, The Prince of Wales, The Duke of Cambridge and all relevant parties. Until then, please accept our deepest thanks for your continued support." – The Duke and Duchess of Sussex For more information, please visit sussexroyal.com (link in bio) Image © PA
