Meghan Markle has had an eventful year, launching her Netflix show, establishing her lifestyle brand, and preparing for her upcoming podcast series.
The Duchess shows no signs of slowing down as she continues to build on her reported net worth of £46.5 million, which includes her husband Prince Harry’s finances. With her latest projects, how close is Meghan to joining the billionaire club?
Harry inherited approximately £8 million from his mother, Princess Diana, which has helped support their lifestyle since they stepped back from royal duties in 2020.
Inside Meghan and Harry’s Stunning Home
The couple owns a luxurious residence in Montecito valued at over £23 million, featuring 16 bedrooms, rose gardens, a tennis court, and a swimming pool.
Meghan previously shared that purchasing this home was a dream come true shortly after moving to the U.S. She told The Cut, “We didn’t have jobs, so we just weren’t going to come and see this house. It wasn’t possible. It’s like when I was younger and you go window shopping—it doesn’t feel good to look at things you can’t afford.”
Meghan’s Media Ventures
In 2021, the couple signed an £80 million, five-year deal with Netflix, significantly boosting their net worth. Their documentary, Harry & Meghan, chronicles their journey from their first meeting to their departure from royal life.
Additionally, Netflix hosted Meghan’s series, With Love, Meghan, where she invited various celebrity guests to cook, decorate, and craft alongside her. The show has been greenlit for a second season, marking a notable achievement for the former Suits actress.
Meghan and Harry also entered the podcasting arena with the Archetypes series, following a £15.5 million deal with Spotify. The show featured special guests like Mariah Carey and Serena Williams. Unfortunately, the deal came to an end in 2023, and the Archetypes series was not renewed. The couple issued a statement saying they had “mutually agreed to part ways [with Spotify] and are proud of the series we made together.”
Recently, Meghan announced her partnership with Lemonada Media, launching her podcast Confessions of a Female Founder on April 8. While her earnings from this project remain unclear, each episode will feature conversations with other successful founders.
The podcast “allows audiences to be a fly on the wall and hear the unfiltered stories behind the successes of notable female founders, while also providing insights into Meghan’s entrepreneurial journey with As Ever,” according to the synopsis. It aims to share how “small ideas can transform into billion-dollar businesses.”
Branching Out
In February, Meghan rebranded her American Riviera Orchard label to As Ever, describing it as an “extension of what has always been my love language, beautifully blending everything I cherish—food, gardening, entertaining, thoughtful living, and finding joy in the everyday.” The product line includes fruit preserves, tea, and mixes for crepes and shortbread, among other items.
Additionally, Meghan launched a ShopMy Page, an affiliate marketing platform where she can curate her favorite clothing and beauty products. In her profile, she noted, “A handpicked and curated collection of the things I love—I hope you enjoy them!” Some items on her list include a cashmere crewneck priced at £1,100, a dress costing £1,044, and a gold necklace for £387, from which she will earn a commission.
With her diverse ventures—including her Netflix series, podcast, and lifestyle brand—Meghan’s net worth is expected to surpass £46.5 million by 2025, bringing her closer to the billionaires club.
