Harry, 38, and his wife, 41, previously claimed in their Netflix docu-series that their split from royalty was sparked largely by jealousy at the former “Suits” actress grabbing all the headlines. “If you look back at some of Meghan and Harry’s biggest problems, it was all down to the fact that everyone was always talking about them and the attention was on them at times when it shouldn’t have been.” “And I would put it down to the fact that so much of the attention then goes on someone who they would rather the attention didn’t go onto,” he claimed of the duchess and her Markle sparkle.
