Harry and Meghan’s Latest High-Profile Deal Signals Their Next Move

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are set to potentially make hundreds of thousands of dollars after signing with one of LA’s biggest public speaking agencies.Aides have confirmed that the couple are now on the books of Harry Walker, billed on its website as “the world’s leading speakers bureau.” The high-profile agency also represent Barack and Michelle Obama, who have made millions of dollars through lucrative public speaking engagements over the years.

Harry and Meghan are said to be looking at the Obamas’ business model as inspiration for their own, and public speaking is likely to be key to their future earnings. The Sussexes, who formally quit the royal family at the end of March, are now financially independent, and with lockdown restrictions easing in the US they are laying down the roots for their future.

Since arriving in Los Angeles they have not earned a penny, choosing instead to focus on their charities and Covid-19 response work. Signing up with the Harry Walker agency is their first major move, and a strong hint that we will soon see—and hear—more of the royal couple.

As well as having a monopoly on the profitable after-dinner speaking circuit, the Harry Walker agency prides itself on hosting live events and VIP meet and greets, something Meghan’s biographer Andrew Morton believes will be in the cards. Describing them as the “hottest ticket in Hollywood” right now, Morton says the couple could earn hundreds of thousands of dollars both through public speaking and meet and greets.

“Meghan and Harry can’t live on fresh air,” said Morton, author of Meghan: A Hollywood Princess. “The glamour of royalty is worth a lot of money and the big hitters will pay big money for an appearance with Harry and Meghan. Members of royalty have charged to appear at public functions in the past. The Duke and Duchess of Windsor famously attended functions for a fee.” – Source
