Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s marriage may not last much longer because they’re spending too much time apart, claims an expert.

He said the couple are going their separate ways

The Duchess of Sussex, 43, raised eyebrows earlier this month as she made two solo public appearances without her husband.

Prince Harry is said to have had a “three-week break”, which included a solo trip to Lesotho in Africa in honour of his charity, Sentebale.

Harry also attended a string of events in New York unaccompanied by his wife.

He also did a surprise TV stint and tour of a haunted maze on the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon.

Speaking on The Sun’s Royal Exclusive show, expert Phil Dampier said Harry and Meghan everyone “has doubts” about their relationship.

Phil said: “I think Meghan is genuinely doing a lot of work in the background for this Netflix project and American Riviera Orchard.

“She probably wants a bit of a hiatus so that she can launch that. As for Harry, obviously he’s been back and forth with a few charities.

“They do seem to be going their separate ways. There’s no evidence that they’re splitting up at the moment personally.

“I think we all have our doubts whether the marriage will last 10, 20, 30 years.

“But only time will tell. In terms of their business and charitable activities, they do seem to be going their separate ways.”

The duke went on a hiking trip with pals to celebrate his big day, leaving his wife and their kids at home.

Sources close to the couple insist it was Meghan who organised the lads’ trip.

However, a Sussex confidante addressed rumours, insisting: “It is normal for couples to not do everything together.”

Phil Dampier doubts Harry and Meghan’s marriage will last much longer

Broadcaster and royal biographer Hugo Vickers, 72, has taken a swipe at the Duchess of Sussex, 43, adding that it “can’t be a coincidence” that the royal has managed to lose so many supporters.

In particular, Mr Vickers singled out the former Vanity Fair editor Tina Brown as someone Meghan had upset.

Ms Brown took part in an episode of The Ankler podcast where she took aim at the Duchess, saying Meghan had “the worst judgement of anyone in the entire world” and that Megxit had been “a disaster”.

Mr Vickers told The Sun Online: “Megan does seem to have a capacity for losing friends and allies all around the place and Tina Brown, of course, is a very intelligent observer of the scene, and she’s been doing it for a very long time.

“For what it’s worth, Meghan lost me as an ally, too, because when she first joined the Royal Family, the line I was taking was she’s the first member to have addressed the United Nations.

“There was so much that she could do, but she gradually managed to upset everybody, including Tina Brown, and that can’t be a coincidence.”

He also explained how he had “lost confidence” in the former Suits actress with the birth of her son Archie.

Mr Vickers said: “The way I lost confidence when there was all that ridiculous nonsense about when Archie was born, and she wouldn’t tell us.

“She was the first woman I’ve ever heard of who’s given birth and subsequently gone into labour later on.

“That doesn’t normally seem to happen, that seems to be rather strange, and then she wouldn’t tell us who the godparents were, and all these small things, you know, are really tiresome.”

Mr Vickers also revealed that while Meghan’s profile was given an enormous boost by marrying Prince Harry he thought she “wasn’t particularly committed” to being part of the Royal Family.

He said: “It does seem to me that she wasn’t particularly committed to being a member of the Royal Family.

“By marrying Prince Harry, her profile went up globally, enormously, and so people wanted to hear more about her, and to some extent more from her.

“There was some quite worrying things quite early on when the four of them were on the platform together and she was saying, ‘we’ve got to hit the road running’.

“In other words let’s get on with me using my new role to promote what I’m interested in.”

He added: “I think she probably misunderstood quite a lot of things to be quite honest about what it meant to be a member of the Royal Family, which is a life of complete service and devotion.

“They work extremely hard, but they’re working for us, not for themselves.”

Mr Vickers believes that Meghan quickly realised her status was that of being Harry’s wife and she wanted to capitalise on that but it wasn’t going that well.

Mr Vickers added: “I never thought she would stay forever to be honest.

“But I didn’t think that she would go with Prince Harry while the Queen was alive, because actually that caused the Queen an enormous amount of distress and anxiety at the end of her life.

“I don’t think she has good judgement.

“I think she had a plan, and now it may take a little while longer for us to know whether her eventual plan works out for her.”
