    Meghan Markle's net worth continues to rise , with her and Prince Harry now in the prestigious 'Goldilocks Zone' of wealth , despite their departure from the Royal Family in 2020.

    Before tying the knot, Meghan's estimated net worth was around $5million. However, even after leaving the UK and a substantial regular income from the Duchess of Cornwall, the couple's combined net worth is estimated at £46million.

    According to US Wealth Advisors' Trust company, this places them in the 'Goldilocks Zone' of wealth. This zone signifies no fear of ever falling into poverty but without the immense stress of truly astronomical wealth.

    They clarify that a fortune of approximately $50m - $60m " gives anyone the flexibility, anonymity, and freedom to do whatever you want today and make plans for tomorrow (e.g., future generations) as easy as it gets. You can hang with billionaires (e.g., charity giving, vacations, dinners, vacations, etc .) without their stress".

    However, the American actress wasn't short of cash before her marriage to Prince Harry , reportedly earning a whopping £40,000 per episode for her role in the legal drama, Suits.

    Her husband, on the other hand, saw his wealth decrease after his controversy-laden split from the Royal Family in 2020 resulted in him losing money made from the Duchy of Cornwall.

    Meghan and Harry revealed their financial independence during the explosive chat with Oprah Winfrey, where they noted being "cut off" from Royal support, relying instead on Harry's inheritance from Princess Diana .

    The Duke held a significant financial lead over Meghan initially, his fortune estimated between $30-$40 million while hers amounted to about $5 million.

    Recently, though, the Sussexes have seen a sharp increase in their assets, thanks to lucrative deals with media giants like Netflix and Spotifya boost that has seen Meghan's net worth leap to tenfold her pre-royal union status.

    Their wealth surge has afforded them a lavish lifestyle in Montecito, California , where they've bought a property complete with nine bedrooms, 16 bathrooms, and luxuries such as a private pool , tennis court, and various lush accommodations.
