Prince Harry addresses rumors about his marriage
Prince Harry laughed off rumors circulating about the state of his marriage to Meghan Markle while making a point about the pressures of living in the public eye.
Harry, who was a guest at The New York Times’ 2024 DealBook Summit, candidly addressed the constant attention on his relationship, noting "it’s definitely not a good thing’."
He wryly remarked that the couple has been subject to rumors about purchasing multiple houses – sometimes even divorcing "maybe 10, 12 times".
“It’s hard to keep up with, but that’s why you just sort of ignore it,”
he shared.
While acknowledging the media frenzy, the Duke of Sussex admitted feeling "sorry" for the internet trolls who invest heavily in analyzing every detail of their relationship.
"The people I feel most sorry about are the trolls," Harry shared. “Their hopes are just built and built, and it’s like, ‘Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes,’ and then it doesn’t happen.”
He continued, showing empathy, "So I feel sorry for them. Genuinely, I do.”
Harry even apologized to NYT columnist Andrew Ross Sorkin who was interviewing him, suggesting that his own words might become another target: "I have no doubt"
the interview "will be spun or twisted somehow against me, and maybe you yourself will be trolled relentlessly."
Addressing the internet’s impact on his life, Harry continued, "I’ve had a lived experience since I was a kid. I’ve seen stories written about myself that aren’t exactly based on reality," while reflecting on how he’s learned to question the validity of information, and its impact on him.
“And I think when you grow up within that environment, you do find yourself questioning the validity of the information but also what other people are thinking of that as well and how dangerous that can be over the course of time.”
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have been recently spotted attending events separately. On Nov. 14, the Duchess attended the launch of her pal Kadi Lee and Myka
Harris’ Highbrow Hippie haircare line, even seen dancing without Harry.
A week later, news broke that Harry, a Global Ambassador for
Scotty’s Little Soldiers, would be hosting a charity event on Dec. 10
without his wife.
Meanwhile, Markle stunned in a red hot dress while attending the Children’s Hospital LA Gala on
