They may have stepped back from royal duties, but Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are clearly not stepping away from the spotlight—or the money. After a string of turbulent ventures and some highly public setbacks, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are now eyeing fresh ways to bring in millions, and insiders say their newest moves could be their boldest yet.

With their $100 million Netflix deal reportedly dead in the water and their Spotify partnership already history, critics rushed to declare the Sussex brand finished. But Meghan and Harry seem to have had a different idea altogether. Rather than retreat quietly, the couple is reportedly shifting gears and preparing for a new chapter—one that mixes high fashion, wellness, and global influence in a polished package made for profit.
At the center of this push is Meghan’s long-rumored lifestyle brand. Though details remain under wraps, trademark filings and industry whispers suggest something big is brewing. From skincare to home goods to nutrition, “American Riviera Orchard”—her newly teased venture—looks set to position Meghan as a major player in the booming lifestyle and wellness market. Think Goop meets royal elegance. And if the buzz turns into sales, it could generate millions in revenue almost overnight.
But it doesn’t end there.
Behind the scenes, Harry is reportedly working on his next wave of projects—ones that could solidify his voice in the mental health and veteran advocacy arenas. Following the global attention of Spare, sources say Harry wants to be seen less as a memoirist and more as a changemaker. Documentaries, speaking engagements, and nonprofit partnerships are all on the table. And in the U.S., where high-profile activism often intersects with business, that kind of positioning can bring in not just respect—but serious income.
Then there's Hollywood. While the Netflix dream may have dimmed, the Sussexes aren’t walking away from production. Meghan is said to be exploring partnerships with new studios to revive her storytelling ambitions, with a focus on women-led narratives and inclusive content. And Harry’s passion for documentaries still burns strong—particularly around causes close to his heart. If they land the right executive deals or streaming partners, it could mean another lucrative chapter in their media journey.
Brand experts say the couple is leaning into what they know best: image, influence, and storytelling. But this time, they're refining the formula. Less royal drama, more curated impact. Less tell-all, more sell-all.
The strategy appears especially focused on the U.S. market, where the couple enjoys more sympathy and commercial flexibility. Meghan, in particular, is being repositioned as a tastemaker—someone with elegant yet relatable style, thoughtful values, and a voice worth listening to. And with the rise of celebrity-founded brands turning into billion-dollar empires (just look at Rihanna or Kim Kardashian), there’s no question Meghan is aiming high.
Of course, the road ahead won’t be smooth. Their past ventures attracted heavy scrutiny, and their critics haven’t quieted. Some royal insiders argue the couple's constant reinvention feels opportunistic. But to their supporters, Harry and Meghan are simply navigating life after the crown the only way they know how—by building something entirely their own.
Whether this next act will bring the riches and respect they’re chasing remains to be seen. But if one thing is clear, it's this: Harry and Meghan aren’t signing off just yet. Their “over and out” may actually be the beginning of a new multi-million-dollar broadcast—and the world is still watching.
