In a rare interview this week, Prince Harry opened up about how proud he is of his wife, Meghan Markle.
Speaking to People magazine, the Duke of Sussex, 40, expressed admiration for Meghan’s recent business ventures—most notably the launch of her new lifestyle brand As Ever and her podcast Confessions of A Female Founder.
This marks the first time Harry has publicly commented on Meghan’s latest professional pursuits, which come five years after the pair stepped back from their senior roles within the royal family in 2020.
Sharing a heartfelt message, Harry told the magazine, “I’m incredibly proud,” and added, “I am so happy for my wife and fully support absolutely everything she’s done and continues to do.”
Meghan’s entrepreneurial projects are already showing early signs of success. Her brand’s product line sold out in under an hour after its debut just weeks ago. Her podcast has also been well-received, making appearances on both the Spotify and Apple podcast charts.
Now 43, Meghan is believed to have been developing these projects over the past few years from the couple’s home in Montecito, California, where she lives with Harry and their two children—five-year-old Prince Archie and three-year-old Princess Lilibet.
Since stepping away from royal duties in 2020, Harry and Meghan have settled into their new life on the West Coast. While Harry isn’t directly involved in Meghan’s business ventures, sources say he is fully supportive.
While Meghan focuses on her brand, Harry continues to dedicate his time to charitable work. Though no longer a working royal, he remains active in causes close to his heart—including the Invictus Games Foundation, which recently brought him to Ukraine.
Together, the couple also continue their joint philanthropic efforts through their Archewell Foundation, carrying on their commitment to making an impact beyond palace walls.
