With the reports that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are leaving their beloved Cotswold bolthole behind as they are struggling to fund two properties, it has raised the question of what their net worth is.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex took on a two-year lease on their stunning £2,500,000 former farmhouse in the heart of the English countryside just before their May 2018 wedding.
They have spent many weekends there entertaining their famous friends and enjoying the sanctuary away from London.
However, it’s claimed that they will be leaving their farmhouse a year early due to the high cost of renovating their new home at Frogmore Cottage on the Windsor Estate.
It is undergoing major refurbishment ahead of the birth of their first child this April.
It is not known if they will move into Frogmore Cottage while renovation work is ongoing, or if they will stay at their London pad, Nottingham Cottage, in the grounds of Kensington Palace until their Windsor home is complete.
If the reports are true and they cannot afford both properties, it begs the question of what their combined net worth is.
When Meghan was first linked to Harry she was best known as an actress on US TV show Suits – but what other jobs has she had?
Born 4 August 1981, Meghan grew up in Los Angeles, California.
Her dad worked in the TV circuit, which is why Meghan and after she eventually ended up playing the lead female in US TV drama Suits for seven years.
It’s her relationship with Harry which really propelled her to the spotlight.
Meghan and Harry’s romance has had the world on tenterhooks since it was first confirmed they were dating in November 2016 with the now infamous statement from Harry.
The pair – Harry, 34, and Meghan, 37 – had been dating since July 2016, keeping things discreet for four months.
One year after they confirmed they were serious, their engagement was then announced on 27 November 2017.
Meghan and Harry married at St George’s Chapel at Windsor Castle on Saturday 19 May.
But while Meghan – whose real name is Rachel Meghan Markle – might have given up her role on Suits to move to London to live with her Prince, she was famous in her own right long before he came into her life.
Meghan’s first appearance on screen was in the background of an episode of General Hospital.
Other small roles for Markle, who, at 5ft 6, Meghan is shorter than her Prince, who is 6ft 1 tall, included in CSI: NY, The War At Home and Century City.
While she was a jobbing actress, she worked as a freelance calligrapher to keep the money coming in. During this time she wrote the wedding invites for Paula Patton and Robin Thicke’s 2005 nuptials.
Other roles that came included Love, Inc, Knight Rider, Without a Trace, The League, Castle, Get Him To The Greek, Remember Me and Horrible Bosses.
Somewhat more notable roles came when she was filmed in a scene for 90210 in which her character had to give one of the lead characters oral sex, when she was a Deal Or No Deal briefcase girl and then when she was a temporary burger griller for Men’s Health.
In 2015, she wrote: ‘I wasn’t black enough for the black roles and I wasn’t white enough for the white ones, leaving me somewhere in the middle as the ethnic chameleon who couldn’t book a job.’
It was in 2011 when she landed the role of Rachel Zane in the USA Network show Suits. She stayed on Suits until the end of series seven, which finished filming at the end of 2017, airing at the start of 2018, when she quit the show to focus on her work as a royal wife.
Other projects include The Tig, which Markle ran from 2014 to 2017 when it was closed down. It was a lifestyle website and she coined the name from her favourite wine – The Tignanello.
According to Know Networth, Meghan’s net worth is around $7million (£5m).
It is, of course, a fraction of Prince Harry’s net worth, which is believed to be around £34million. This makes their combined worth £39million.
Harry’s money comes from his inheritance from his mother, the late Diana, Princess Of Wales, following her death in 1997, as well as inheritance from the late Queen Mother and his work in the army.
Meghan was previously married to film producer and talent manager Trevor Engelson. They married in September 2011 but divorced in May 2013.
