Anytime these two get in the public eye, it usually follows with a flowing cash register.&#8221;<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"13\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h2>Meghan Markle is thrilled, while Prince Harry is said to be uncomfortable<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly, the two are said to have very different reactions to the financial outcome of the trip. According to The News, Meghan is reportedly delighted with what they earned. &#8220;She&#8217;s one of those people who gets a huge rush from hitting her goals; success is very addictive for her. Money has been a concern for her lately, so this cash infusion is a big win, and she&#8217;s proud of that,&#8221; the source said.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"17\"\/>Harry, on the other hand, is said to be far less at ease with the conversation around money. &#8220;For Harry, that&#8217;s actually uncomfortable. He was taught never to speak about money,&#8221; the same insider claimed. &#8220;The fact that she&#8217;s talking numbers a lot rubs him the wrong way; he sees it as very gauche.&#8221;<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"19\"\/>With Buckingham Palace reportedly furious and the couple themselves seemingly at odds over how to feel about the trip&#8217;s outcome, the Australia visit appears to have created friction on more than one front for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.<\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source timesofindia.indiatimes.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Meghan Markle and Prince Harry&#8217;s recent trip to Australia has stirred up considerable controversy, with insiders suggesting the visit has not gone down well with the royal family back home.
