Now, a shocking scandal has erupted involving Meghan and celebrity personality Corey Vitello. The former couple is embroiled in a heated controversy, with Vitello alleging that Meghan owes him a significant sum of money and vowing to pursue legal action. Corey Vitello is well-known in the culinary world and had been in a relationship with Meghan, whose identity has been mostly kept private.
Their relationship ended amid apparent turmoil, and Vitello has made startling claims about the nature of their association. According to reports, Meghan's two-year romance with Vitello, a Toronto-based chef, was on the rocks when she met Prince Harry. Despite the relationship's rocky state, they continued to share a home. However, things took a dramatic turn when Vitello discovered that Meghan had already become involved with Harry. He promptly asked her to leave his place, after which Meghan moved in with Ben and Jessica Moroney, staying with them for just over a month before finding her own place.
During this period, between May and Autumn, Meghan managed to take three trips with Harry. Notably, Harry had convinced Buckingham Palace to cover security expenses for Meghan, and it's speculated that he may have also facilitated her rental costs, possibly through the Invictus Games Foundation.
Corey Vitello is evidently upset about Meghan's spending habits, which he perceives as extravagant compared to her earnings. According to a source close to Vitello, he claims that Meghan owes him a staggering $80,000, which she supposedly used for PR and attempting to gain fame in the UK. Some reports suggest that Meghan spent substantial sums on purchasing articles and tabloids to attract the attention of wealthy men. It's worth noting that Harry allegedly settled some of Meghan's debts, including expenses related to cleaning up her online image.
Furthermore, sources suggest that Meghan's actual net worth may be significantly lower than reported, with claims that she made around $20,000 to $30,000 a year from her work on "The Tig" and associated social media channels. These sources argue that Meghan's net worth calculations are based on multiplying her salary by the number of episodes she appeared in, but her initial salary was much lower. It's suggested that her finances were not as substantial as previously believed, particularly before her engagement to Harry.
This legal dispute between Corey Vitello and Meghan Markle adds another layer of complexity to Meghan's public image, raising questions about her financial dealings and relationships.
