Why are Harry and Meghan leading separate lives? Local newspaper says...

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have not been seen together in public for a long time triggering speculations as to whether the Sussexes are headed for a split. But at the same time, there are reports of the ex-royals purchasing a vacation house in Portugal, confusing the royal watchers about the status of their marriage. Royal experts in the UK mostly blame Meghan for everything going wrong in Harry and Meghan's life while many believe the divorce rumors could be a strategy for the Sussexes to be in the news.
But now a local California newspaper, The Montecito Journal, has picked up on the rumours and confirmed that there is more to the Sussexes' individual appearances. "It was her second public appearance without Harry since her visit to Children's Hospital Los Angeles on October 5 -- as British royal experts continue to speculate the Riven Rock twosome 'are going their separate ways' as they live 'increasingly separate lives'," the Montecito Journal said about the ex-royals.
Harry-Meghan separation: Here are the possibilities
Harry and Meghan are divorcing

In case Harry and Meghan are headed toward a divorce, experts blame their fight for the limelight and Harry's unhappiness in California. Experts believe both Harry and Meghan try to upstage each other and Prince Harry became homesick after stepping down from royal duties and leaving his family behind in the UK.
Harry and Meghan are splitting professionally
Harry and Meghan are only separating their professional paths -- Meghan deciding to devote more time to her business and Hollywood projects than appearing alongside Prince Harry. And Harry decided to pursue his charity events without Meghan. According to experts, their joint brand could not take off and to the world, they appear as a spoiled, arrogant, immature and attention-seeking, aggressive couple. The Sussexes brand has become toxic but they still have the chance to salvage their individual career if they go different ways, experts said.
Harry and Meghan are not splitting
The third possibility is they are not splitting and not doing anything to stop the rumor mills going. They have purchased a house in Portugal to spend time away from the US where they might not see each other because of different professional commitments.
