It is said that the prince and the actress did not sign prenuptial agreements, what happens in a divorce between royals?
Of course, nobody wants this to happen, but we can't deny that it has happened... What better example than the divorces of Diana and Carlos or Prince Andrew from the Duchess of York. That is why the question arises: what would happen if Meghan and Harry divorced?
Neither Harry, William nor Charles is said to have signed a prenuptial agreement: "I don't think members of the royal family sign prenuptial agreements," said Katie Nicholl, author of 'Harry: Life, Loss and Love'. "It's more common to sign these agreements between celebrities, but this is not a celebrity marriage, it's a real marriage."
In December, international divorce attorney Jeremy D. Morely told TMZ England that, in the event of a divorce, the couple's wealth (what they had before they married and what they accumulated after their wedding) would be divided equally. Under this premise, Princess Diana received $23 million when divorcing Carlos.
So how much money are we talking about? Meghan reported $5 million in her name, while Harry reported $40 million. And from what the lawyer says, they would not only divide this amount of money, but what they accumulate together.
If this couple were to divorce, we would not have the essential details because the negotiations would take place outside of court. "In the modern history of the royal family, divorce is described as amicable for public relations reasons," said Duncan Larcombe, author of "Prince Harry: The Inside Story." For example, we know that Lady Di ended up getting a new title, in addition to her financial settlement and her security escorts for her protection.
