The rumour mill will always try to stir the pot regarding the monarchs.
Most recently, speculation has been that the Duke of Sussex, Prince Harry, and the Duchess, Meghan Markle, are heading for divorce.
Some have even said that the couple have broken up officially.
These rumours were fuelled by the pair attending professional engagements separately.

In December 2024, Markle attended the Paley Honors Gala in Beverly Hills, while Harry was at The New York Times 2024 DealBook Summit in New York City.
During his interview with NYT journalist Andre Ross Sorkin, he addressed the rumours directly.
Sorkin shared that he had used Google News to research the Duke and that people were "fascinated" by what the royal was doing.
He then mentioned that people were intrigued about why the couple were at separate events.
And there’s articles left and right about, you know, ‘Why are you making, doing independent events? Why aren’t you doing them together?’- Andre Ross Sorkin (NYT Journalist)

Harry then explained that the attention and interest are "definitely not a good thing" and that they have been "divorced maybe 10, 12 times as well".
Addressing the rumours directly, he said that it's hard to keep up with all that is being said, but he feels sorry for the trolls who read about the rumours and get excited.
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. I’ve seen stories about members of my family, friends, strangers, all sorts of people. 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 it can be over the course of time.- Duke of Sussex, Prince Harry
