During Harry and Meghan’s history-making interview with Oprah Winfrey, the Sussexes claimed that they had been cut off financially upon leaving the country.

Now, according to The Sun, Clarence House accounts suggest that Prince Charles forked out £4.5m pounds (around $8.2 million AUD) for both of his sons.

What’s more, a spokesperson for Clarence House told the publication that Harry’s portion of the cash was “substantial”.

The source went on to add, “that funding ceased in the summer of last year. The couple are now financially independent”.

Despite his rocky relationship with his family back home, Prince Harry is currently preparing to return to the UK for the unveiling of Princess Diana’s statue.

And the Duke is reportedly making the trip solo.

“Meghan is not going to travel,” the insider told the Daily Mirror, “She has just had a baby and Harry will travel alone.” 

In fact, the guest list is completely up in the air at the moment, as royal reporter Camilla Tominey explained on Today.

“We’ve never really been told that family is going to be included in this thing,” she said. “Never any suggestions that the Cambridges would attend along with Prince William.”

Camilla added: “I think we may just see them cut solo figures without their families around them.” 

This will be the first time Harry and Will have come face-to-face since Prince Philip’s funeral.
