Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are reportedly at odds over work, according to a royal insider. One of them has been busy on the charity circuit and engagements in London and New York, while the other has been enjoying a slower pace. Now, a royal insider says the contrast has become a sore point, and money could be the factor.
Since returning to the UK, Prince Harry has been out and about. Meghan Markle's schedule, by comparison, sounds far gentler. New Idea reports that Markle's days are a mix of business calls for her lifestyle brand, As Ever, going to Pilates or yoga with friends, and school runs for Archie and Lilibet.
A royal insider speaking to the outlet claims Harry would like that to change. "Harry wants Meghan to work," the source says. They add that "while he was at that WellChild event and being offered radio gigs for Meghan, she was having a jolly in a pub with Ellen and Portia."
Money appears to be at the heart of it, as the insider says the couple's funds are shrinking. Keeping their Montecito home is estimated to cost about $1 million. Meghan is said to want it as a safety net if life in the UK does not work out.
Meanwhile, her acting plans have hit obstacles too. In August, a rumor spread that she was in talks with Guy Ritchie's team regarding a role in "The Gentlemen," which streams on Netflix. Series star Theo James dismissed these rumors soon after.

Prince Harry is making plenty of changes.
After the Duke of Sussex moved back to the U.K. with wife Meghan Markle and their two children, a source told journalist Rob Shuter for a Thursday, September 10, report on his Naughty But Nice Substack that Harry is in need of "action."
"The goal is simple: make Harry the Tom Cruise of princes," the source said.
It shouldn't come as a surprise, given that the 41-year-old's wife is apparently looking to get back to acting. Rumors began swirling that the former Suits star, 45, was in talks to join Guy Ritchie's Netflix show, The Gentlemen, which films in England (though star Theo James seemed to squash the chatter).

Here's a roundup of the menswear looks away from the Venice Film Festival and The Gentlemen premiere, with Lewis Hamilton making an occasion of Monza, while Andrew Scott and Andrew Garfield returned to traditional tailoring.
Considering Monza is the home of Ferrari, Lewis Hamilton was always going to make his arrival count.
The driver wore a Saint Laurent Fall 2026 black pinstripe suit, and I love the proportions here. We all know how much Lewis loves an oversized silhouette, sometimes to comical proportions, but the strong shoulders and wide-leg trousers give the classic shirt-and-tie combination a more contemporary feel, while the Kangol hat adds that signature Lewis touch.
Saint Laurent Stanton shoes, Renato Cipullo's Beryl Topiary ring and Briony Raymond Slim Sloan hoop earrings completed his look.

Meghan Markle's rumored acting comeback has reportedly been dismissed as a "PR stunt" after speculation that the ***** ss of Sussex would join "The Gentlemen" was seemingly put to rest.
Rumors of Markle's return to acting had intensified following reports that she and Prince Harry were planning to return to the UK. However, stars of Guy Ritchie's Netflix series have now seemingly shut down the speculation, clarifying that the "Suits" star is not joining the show after all.
"The Gentlemen" stars have seemingly dismissed speculation surrounding Meghan Markle's rumored acting comeback at the London premiere of Season 2. Vinnie Jones appeared to take a subtle jab at the ***** ss of Sussex, stating: "I think it's hot air. We've got a lot of pretty women in this series, so I'm not sure there's room for any more" (via Radar Online).
Theo James also addressed the speculation with his signature sense of humor. He quipped: "No. Prince Harry is playing one of my love interests. So that's the Meghan Markle thing." James later offered a more serious response, stating: "I think it's a spurious rumour. She'd fit in well because she's actually from the Royal Family, but I think the practicalities of that are impossible."
Meanwhile, other cast members appeared surprised that the rumor had made headlines, with several admitting they were unaware of the speculation. An industry source subsequently suggested that Markle's team may have been behind the reports, telling the outlet that there was growing skepticism over their origins.

Amid their move to the UK, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's departure from Montecito was surprisingly low-key, but an insider claims the couple did attempt to have a flashy A-list farewell party.
"They started quietly feeling people out, and the response was basically crickets," a source told Rob Shuter's Naughty But Nice. "They imagined this emotional send-off surrounded by the people who welcomed them to America. Instead, everyone was busy. It was embarrassing."

Meghan Markle is ready to jump back into acting full-time, a source tells In Touch.
After news broke of her and Prince Harry's plans to return to the U.K., rumors began swirling that the ******* ss of Sussex, 45, was in talks to join Guy Ritchie's Netflix show, The Gentlemen, which was recently renewed for a third season and, more importantly, films in England.
"The fact that she can do it from the U.K. is quite appealing as well," notes the source. "Not just because it gives her a reason to be there while Harry focuses on mending things with his family, but also because she'll be a big fish in a small pond, so there will be more opportunities for her."
As In Touch previously reported, Meghan has set her sights on winning an Oscar.
"Her goal is to score [a role in] something high-profile that will allow her to really showcase her talent and maybe even start winning awards," says the source. "She's not limiting herself to acting, though. Her brand is still going to be a huge focus."

Meghan Markle is reportedly preparing for a very different chapter as she returns to the U.K. She will be traveling alongside Prince Harry and their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet. According to reports, the family is relocating to Britain for an extended stay while maintaining their home in Montecito, California. The move marks Meghan's return to the country she left six years ago. However, insiders say she is now in a much stronger position, both personally and professionally.
Meghan Markle is expected to return to Britain this month, but not as a working royal. According to PEOPLE, she and Prince Harry will continue as private, non-working members of the royal family. King Charles will maintain this arrangement, which was established after the couple stepped back from royal duties in 2020.
Sources close to the ****** ss of Sussex told the outlet that this return differs significantly from her previous experience in Britain. One ally said Meghan's support system is "stronger now than it ever was," adding that she now has her own team, career, and greater control over her personal and professional life. Another insider noted that Meghan has been open about the struggles she faced during her first years in the U.K. However, they emphasized that this history is not destined to repeat itself.
Despite the renewed confidence surrounding her move, concerns remain about the intense media attention awaiting her. A source close to Meghan admitted they are worried about the level of scrutiny she could face upon returning to Britain. Public support for both her and Prince Harry remains mixed across the country.
Professionally, Meghan also returns with several opportunities that did not exist during her royal years. PEOPLE reports that she is in discussions for a possible role in Guy Ritchie's Netflix series "The Gentlemen." While no deal has been finalized, the project could mark her first major acting role since leaving "Suits."

Meghan Markle launches a new As Ever product days before her reported move to the UK with Prince Harry and their kids. She regarded the product as a "fall favorite." Ahead of the announcement, she teased the release of the product in an Instagram post, which featured her in a black dress and cream cardigan with a basket of apples.
On Tuesday, August 25, Markle announced her brand As Ever's spiced apple ***** er, which will be made available for purchase on Wednesday, August 26. "There's something special about the first taste of apple season, with its promise of crisp mornings and changing leaves just around the corner. Our new Spiced Apple ***** er captures that feeling in every jar, with orchard apples and fragrant spices bringing the comforting warmth of the season to every spoonful," the company's newsletter read.
A few days before the announcement, Markle took to As Ever's page to share a video, which seemingly sparked several speculations. In the clip, she could be seen wandering in the woodland, with the basket of apples in her hand. She stops by a tree nearby and looks up before continuing her stroll. Her caption read, "A little hint of what's coming," followed by an apple emoji.
In another post, she introduced the actual product, the "Spiced Apple ***** er."
While this post came amid her return to the UK, it also came at a time when some reports suggest that the ***** ss of Sussex is making a return to acting. It's understood that she could be teaming up with Guy Ritchie for the Netflix series The Gentlemen.

Within the next few days, the Duke and ****** ss of Sussex and their two children will have departed California and become residents of the UK.
Since news broke of the move, there has been some confusion as to what British life for Harry and Meghan will look like - but a picture is emerging of the family's priorities.
Over the weekend, there was a deluge of stories about Meghan's return to acting with speculation she would have a role in the next series of The Gentlemen on Netflix, created by British director Guy Ritchie.
Talks are still said to be in the early stages and we understand filming for the third series of the show is imminent - but Netflix has made no comment on who will star, leaving the way open for a former working member of the royal family with an acting background to be cast.
The comedy is about a duke turned drug baron and is mostly filmed in the Cotswolds.

Meghan Markle took to social media to share a cryptic video and message on the As Ever page. This post comes amid reports suggesting that she is returning to acting. The speculation arrives on the heels of her reported move to the UK alongside her husband, Prince Harry, and their kids after they stepped away from royal duties in 2020.
Meghan Markle shared on As Ever's Instagram page a video that has left everyone wondering what it's about. In it, she sported a black mid-length frock, cream-colored cardigan, and boots. The **** ss wandered in the woodland with a basket of apples in her hand. She then stopped by a specific tree and looked above before continuing her stroll. She captioned the post as "A little hint of what's coming," followed by an apple emoji.
According to recent reports, Markle is said to make a return to acting and that she may have landed a major role in a UK production. It has been learned that she could be teaming up with Guy Ritchie for the Netflix series The Gentlemen. Before marrying Prince Harry, Markle was widely known for her performance as Rachel Zane in Suits. In late 2017, she announced that she was retiring from acting to become a member of the British Royal Family.
The **** ss said in the interview, "What's been so exciting [transitioning] out of my career and into, as you said, the causes I can focus even more energy on, very early out of the gate, [is that you] have a voice that people listen to, a lot of responsibility" (via W Magazine).
Despite stepping away from the royal role in 2020, Markle still didn't return to acting but has appeared in documentary-style projects, chronicling her personal and professional life. This includes Live to Lead, With Love, Meghan, Harry & Meghan, Heart of Invictus, and more. She recently also appeared as a guest judge on MasterChef Australia.

Amid news of Meghan Markle moving back to the UK, reports emerged that she landed her first acting role in nearly a decade.
On August 21, Deadline reported that Meghan had been "offered a role in an upcoming project based in the UK." The outlet revealed she was "in talks" to join Season 3 of Guy Ritchie's Netflix action comedy series The Gentlemen, but just one day later, the offer was reportedly rescinded.

#reportedly

Ever since last week's news that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were planning to move back to the UK for an "extended period" following six years of living in California, the rumour mill has been working overtime.
It's hardly surprising considering how divisive Markle is as a public figure and how the British press has piled on repeatedly when it comes to criticising every move she makes.
Alongside the headline-grabbing news that the couple are returning to the UK after a very public and controversial break with the British royal family, there have been contradictory reports that Markle would be returning to acting.
The main speculation has been that Markle was being considered to join Guy Ritchie's Netflix series The Gentlemen upon her return to England. Australian news outlet News.com.au reported that she had been "offered a role in an upcoming project based in the UK". Variety subsequently reported that this role would be in the planned third season of the series spin-off of Ritchie's 2019 movie of the same name.
The project would make sense, as Markle and Prince Harry's Archewell Productions already has a working relationship with Netflix – with the companies having produced Markle's critically savaged lifestyle show With Love, Meghan, as well as poorly received projects like Harry & Meghan, Polo, and the docuseries Heart of Invictus.

Prince William and Kate Middleton have devised a foolproof strategy to tackle Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. Multiple outlets have reported that the Sussexes will be returning to the UK by the end of the month. While King Charles has reportedly welcomed the decision wholeheartedly, the Waleses are not too pleased with the development. Now, as per Rob Shuter, they have come up with an idea to handle the Sussexes.
According to Rob Shuter, Prince William and Kate Middleton aim to play the "long game" rather than deal with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle in public. The Waleses' brilliant strategy is surprisingly simple: do nothing and wait for the Sussexes to falter.
Sources revealed that William and Kate are sure Harry and Meghan won't stay in the UK forever. The Waleses see the reported six-month stay as a temporary arrangement and believe time is firmly on their side. A palace insider dished: "William and Kate play the long game. They're not going to fight them, brief against them, or get dragged into another Sussex circus. Their attitude is simple: sit back, wait and see what actually happens."
The Waleses are also taking advantage of the fact that everything is uncertain and undecided for the Sussexes. As per reports, Markle was in talks to star in the third season of The Gentlemen.
An insider said: "There was never a signed, sealed acting job. Meghan wants it badly, but this was always a possibility, not a done deal."

Madonna's ex Guy Ritchie reportedly took advantage of Meghan Markle's current controversy and shifted the spotlight to his own upcoming project. For those unversed, multiple reports have shared that the Sussexes are returning to the UK along with their children by the end of August. Simultaneously, there were rumors that the former actress would join Ritchie's Netflix series "The Gentlemen."
As per Rob Shuter's latest report, Guy Ritchie profited from speculation that Meghan Markle was attached to "The Gentlemen." While the Duke and ***** ss of Sussex are reportedly moving back to the UK, there has also been speculation that Markle is returning to acting.
Multiple outlets reported that she was in advanced talks to star in "The Gentlemen." However, interestingly, according to Rob Shuter, the talks were in their nascent stage.
No role has officially been offered, and Markle has not signed on the dotted line. Moreover, a few reports even hinted at whether Season 3 had even received a formal green light. The second season premieres on September 3, and Ritchie needed people to talk about it. Hence, he capitalized on Markle's recent news coverage and pivoted the conversation to his project.
The source dished: "Guy didn't need to cast Meghan — he needed people talking about The Gentlemen. And overnight, everybody was."

Meghan Markle may not be appearing in the third season of Guy Ritchie's The Gentlemen after all.
This week, reports that the ****** ss of Sussex, 45, was considering a return to acting in the Netflix series sparked waves of backlash in the U.K.
Now, former Vanity Fair and New York Magazine editor-in-chief Tina Brown claims the decision to cast Meghan in the drama has been reversed.
"I learned this morning that the casting of Meghan Markle in season 3 of Guy Ritchie's Netflix series The Gentlemen has been withdrawn," Brown — who is the author of two books about the Royal Family — wrote on her Substack Saturday.
"The backlash in the UK was so intense, it became untenable to go forward," she added.

Starring Theo James, "The ‌Gentlemen" focuses on a man who unexpectedly inherits his family's country estate, only to discover that it is at the centre of a sprawling cannabis empire ‌and Britain's criminal underworld.

Like many other elements of her life, Marilyn Monroe's engagement ring from her nine-month marriage to Joe DiMaggio was veiled in mystery. The screen goddess and baseball star wed in January 1954, two years after they started dating. It was a low-key affair at San Francisco City Hall, with Monroe wearing a dark-chocolate suit instead of the traditional white dress. However, the engagement ring attached to this union was anything but low-key.
Fans got their first glimpse at Monroe's ring when she stepped outside with DiMaggio immediately after they tied the knot. The "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes" star was wearing a platinum diamond eternity band which had no less than 36 baguette-cut diamonds. But many of the details surrounding the ring have never been clarified. To this day, we don't know where DiMaggio bought the ring from, whether he had it personally designed based on Monroe's tastes, or whether she actually requested the baguette style over the classic engagement-ring style. Some theorize that the ring was her choice (so an eternity band may be another way to incorporate Marilyn Monroe's iconic style into your 2026 'fits), but this has never been confirmed.
Likewise, we don't have official confirmation that the ring Monroe was seen wearing outside her wedding ceremony was the same ring that she wore for the rest of her marriage to DiMaggio. Scott Fortner of The Marilyn Monroe Collection argues that the eternity band was actually a placeholder used just for that day, since the two got married with little notice despite dating for two years. With both Monroe and DiMaggio having long since passed away, no one can confirm if this is true or not. Along the same lines, we have an idea of what became of the stunning piece of jewelry, but that hasn't stopped rumors and theories from circulating.

LIV Golf 1.0 — the era of big talk and bigger paychecks — is over. Whatever comes next for the breakaway tour, cut loose by Saudi Arabian funding and now on the hunt for outside investment, the days of "Golf But Louder" are done.
Without a doubt, LIV fundamentally changed the structure of men's professional golf, forcing the PGA Tour into reworking its entire structure, schedule and financial model. LIV altered the professional arcs of some of the game's greatest players, gave others the opportunity to destroy their own reputations, and provided a pathway back to prominence for the once-lost Anthony Kim. LIV also brought the concept of sportswashing into the mainstream of the American sports conversation, forcing sports fans to decide just how much politics they were willing to accept with their sports.
That's a ****** of an impact in just a few short years, but that also leads into another LIV lesson: the impossibility of competing with the established American sports framework. Even a league funded by bottomless oil wealth ultimately couldn't compete with a vulnerable legacy organization.
So what does that mean? Competing with the PGA Tour is a lost cause for LIV, so coexistence is now the only path forward. And if LIV is going to survive and thrive in the years to come, version 2.0 will need to learn from the mistakes of its predecessor. And oh, are there plenty of lessons to learn.
LIV Golf fired off the tee in 2021 with swagger, attitude and arrogance, largely mirroring the personality of firebrand Greg Norman. Longtime PGA Tour antagonists like Norman and Phil Mickelson spoke openly (and in court filings) of wanting to upend the Tour's entire business model, torching the very house in which they'd grown wealthy. That didn't sit well with Tour traditionalists, and the badass playacting came off as more silly than intimidating. You're smacking a little white ball around a field, gentlemen. Let's not pretend this is armed combat.

The results are in from our SB Nation Reacts survey for this week, ladies and gentlemen, so let's take a look at what everyone thinks about our Minnesota Vikings topic for this week.
We asked you, with training camp just having gotten underway, whether or not you feel our favorite squad will be making a return to the postseason this year. 'Tis, apparently, the season for positivity around here, as the local gentry feels the purple will be playing into mid-January rather than just the early portions of it.
Of those who responded to our survey, a full 80% feel that the Vikings will make a return to the playoffs this season after a one-year hiatus. More of you feel that they'll be joining the playoff field as a Wild Card team than as the NFC North division champion, with 44% of our respondents saying the Vikings will make the postseason as a Wild Card team and 36% saying they'll win the NFC North for the first time since 2022. And there are 20% of you who responded that believe the Vikings will miss the playoffs for the second consecutive season.
I do think the Vikings will make their way back to the playoffs this season, and I do think it's more likely they'll be there as a Wild Card than as a division champ. I expect the NFC North to, once again, be among the toughest divisions in the NFL this season, and even though the Vikings were. . .in theory. . .one botched kickoff return away from winning the NFC North last season, the margin for error is going to be pretty slim again this year. Have the Vikings made enough of the necessary changes to get over the hump and get to the top of the division? Obviously, we don't know what role injuries are going to play around the division yet, either.
Here's hoping that our optimism isn't misplaced when it comes to our postseason hopes for the 2026 season. We're a little less than two weeks away from seeing an actual football game involving our favorite team, albeit one that doesn't count for anything other than seeing who will take some of the spots at the bottom of the roster. I, for one, will just be happy to see it.

As the leading lady in "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes," Marilyn Monroe became one of the most famous blondes in movie history. Few stars have a signature look that's quite as iconic as Monroe's — from her makeup to her fashion sense to, of course, her blonde bob. Interestingly, though, the star went through a stunning transformation to become the Marilyn Monroe everyone recognizes. While it may be hard to believe, before she found her signature look, Monroe wasn't a natural blonde bombshell. What might be even harder to believe? She may have looked better as a brunette.
Donaldson Collection/Getty
Before the Marilyn Monroe persona and the look that came along with it were born, she was known as Norma Jean Mortenson, a brunette from Los Angeles with a difficult childhood. Dreams of stardom led Monroe to Blue Book Model Agency, where she was reportedly encouraged to give her hair a total makeover, removing her widow's peak and, of course, bleaching it blonde. From there, Monroe's blonde locks went on to become some of the most famous blonde locks ever. Yet looking at photos of her before the change shows that she looked striking with her natural brown waves, too. It's easy to see why some may have thought that the light brunette shade Monroe had wouldn't make her stand out in a crowd quite the way her blonde hair ultimately did, but it gave her a softer, warmer look.

Terrance McKinney and King Green went from friends, to enemies, to friends again.
“I’m going to be real: There ain’t too many black fighters as it is,” Green said after defeating McKinney at UFC 329. “I’m trying to show him and teach him something like, ‘Bro, we’re supposed to stick together.’ Irish fighters do it. The Mexican fighters do it. But us as black folks, where we come from and what we’ve been through is just different. It is what it is.”
Green claims they had a gentlemen’s agreement in place to never accept a fight against one another, but McKinney ignored their pact in order to get himself on the UFC 329 fight card, headlined by former two-division champion and the sport’s biggest star, Conor McGregor.
“I want nothing but good things for him,” Green said. “I’m sorry that we had to do this fight. I told you don’t take the fight, brother. That’s my little bro, and I didn’t want to do this sh*t. I didn’t want to shut his light out. He did everything right, but I’m unbreakable. My spirit don’t be broken.”
Green won by way of first-round technical knockout just seconds before the horn.

LONDON, ENGLAND - JULY 10: Jannik Sinner of Italy plays a forehand against Novak Djokovic of Serbia during their Gentlemen's Singles semifinal match on day twelve of The Championships Wimbledon 2026 at All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club on July 10, 2026 in London, England.

World No. 1 Jannik Sinner didn't leave any doubt.
The defending Wimbledon champion dominated 24-time major champion Novak Djokovic 6-4, 6-4, 6-4, to reach his second straight Wimbledon final. Sinner improved to 7-5 against Djokovic, who beat him in the Australian Open semis in January.
The Italian will face No. 2 Alexander Zverev, the Roland Garros champion, in Sunday's final (11 a.m. ET, ESPN). The winner takes home about $4.8 million.
Sinner leads their head-to-head 10-4.

Arthur Fery's dream run at Wimbledon came to an end in the semifinals, but the British wildcard scored a huge payday during the fortnight.
Fery, 23, entered Wimbledon with career earnings of $868,053 and will take home an additional $1.2 million after falling in the semis to No. 2 Alexander Zverev, 7-6(0), 6-2, 6-4.
Had Fery scored the massive upset, he would have earned $2.415 million.
The payday doesn't include the sponsorships he will likely pick up from becoming the first British wildcard in 25 years to reach the semifinals.

Ask any New York Jets coaching staff member what separates good pass rushers from great ones, and many will give the same answer. It isn't just size or strength. It isn't even sack production, as hard as that may be to believe.
All of those ingredients help, but as simple as it sounds, the greats have to know how to 'win.' It's the ability to explode off the football before an offensive tackle has a chance to react.
That's one of the reasons why the Jets fell in love with second-overall pick David Bailey during the pre-draft process. They believe they see explosiveness (along with the other traits that were mentioned), and ladies and gentlemen, early signs suggest they may have been right.
Pass-rush technique can improve. Strength can be developed inside NFL weight rooms. Learning how to defend the run comes with experience. Explosiveness, however, is something players either possess or they don't. Bailey has that, and he has it in abundance. National experts agree.
ESPN recently described Bailey's first step for an update on every first-round draftee. He described the rookie's quickness as his most noticeable trait throughout spring practices. Add left tackle Olu Fashanu to Bailey's list of admirers. He offered perhaps the greatest compliment possible.
