Meghan and Harry's 'friction' questioned after marriage admission

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are reportedly on different paths when it comes to their brand. US commentator Kinsey Schofield addressed claims of "friction" behind the scenes with royal biographer and writer Tom Bower.

Speaking on her self-titled Unfiltered podcast, Kinsey shared: "In America a lot of the tabloids are talking about how Harry and Meghan are experiencing a difference in their interests and professional paths.

Meghan is focussed on Hollywood and Harry is dedicating his energy to the Invictus Games. Some say it is creating friction behind the scenes."

She referenced the Duchess of Sussex's interview on the Jamie Kern Lima Show where she described Harry as a "fox" and admitted they are still in the honeymoon phase in their relationship.

Kinsey asked: "Do you think their differences in pursuits could cause friction at home or is Harry hopelessly in love?"

Tom replied: "All marriages have friction."

He suggested the couple are very much invested in their marriage but claimed Harry is unsure of how to make a return to the Royal Family.

"I don't think he has any idea of how to escape from their problems other than returning to Britain and assuming royal duties so that he has status and a purpose," the royal biographer explained.

He continued: "I think she liked that idea because it gives her status and exposure. She can then sell more clothes and handbags or whatever on the back of appearing in Britain with the King, or whoever she can stand next to.

But I don't think that's going to happen. I don't think they've got a chance for Harry to pull this off. But he's got no alternative so the crisis gets bigger."

Elsewhere, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex had a busy Valentine's Day weekend together.

They enjoyed dinner at one of their favorite spots, Funke, on February 13 and ended with a surprise joint appearance at the NBA All-Star Game on Sunday.

Other celebrities like Barack and Michelle Obama-along with their daughter Sasha-and Queen Latifah were in attendance at the NBA All-Star Game.
