Navigating New Paths: Harry and Meghan Embrace Solo Endeavors
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex find themselves at a logistical – and perhaps personal – crossroads. Since summer, joint public appearances have been rare for the couple, with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle now embracing separate pursuits.
“Happy, confident, and comfortable” is how expert Judi James characterizes their demeanor even with significant time apart. The shift is evident, signaling a new phase in their multifaceted partnership.
Our Meghan is focusing on her entrepreneurial ventures; her lifestyle brand, American Riviera Orchard, is set to launch in early 2025. Harry, meanwhile, has poured his energy into charitable endeavors, notably the Invictus Games, which will be held in Vancouver and Whistler, Canada, this February.
The couple shared a video message on children’s online safety at a late summer United Nations conference in Colombia. It was their second joint public appearance since August, signaling a shift away from their synchronized public presence in previous years.
This week,镕 their paths continue to diverge: Meghan is scheduled to grace a glamorous Hollywood event on December 4th to honor close friend Tyler Perry.
Concurrently, Harry will be across the country at The New York Times’ DealBook Conference.
August offered the last glimpse of the couple’s unison during their highly-publicized Colombian tour. Since then, solo engagements have taken center stage.
What career paths might Prince Harry pursue?

So, this news from Harry and Meghan has certainly sparked a lot of conversation. According to reports, they’ve appeared in their first joint public appearance in months, hinting at a shift in their focus. Can you tell us more about what we know?
**ELEANOR:**
Yes, in a video message released recently, the couple acknowledged they’re at a “crossroads” in their careers. [[1](https://nypost.com/2024/11/11/entertainment/prince-harry-and-meghan-markle-share-new-video-message-we-are-at-a-crossroads/)]While specifics are still scarce, this suggests they may be considering pursuing separate ventures and branching out individually.
**HOST:**
Their initial move away from their royal duties might have felt like a radical shift at the time. This new direction seems to follow that trend, wouldn’t you agree?
**ELEANOR:**
Absolutely. Since stepping down as senior royals, Harry and Meghan have faced intense scrutiny and found their footing in a new world. This latest development seems to indicate an evolution in their strategy, potentially exploring opportunities that align with their individual interests and passions.
**HOST:**
What are some of the possibilities we might see coming from this?
**ELEANOR:**
It’s impossible to say for sure without official confirmation, but given their individual backgrounds and endeavors, we could see Prince Harry focusing more on charitable work, particularly in areas like veterans’ affairs. Meghan, on the other hand, with her background in acting and advocacy, might pursue projects in entertainment or continue her work on women’s empowerment.
**HOST:**
How do you think the public will react to this potential departure from their joint projects?
**ELEANOR**
It’ll be interesting to see. Some may view it as a natural progression, allowing them both to flourish individually. Others might see it as a sign of trouble in paradise. Ultimately, time will tell how this new chapter unfolds for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
**HOST:**
Thank you so much for sharing your insights, Eleanor.
**ELEANOR:**
My pleasure.
