As per Page Six, Harry claims that Charles stated he couldn't afford to raise Meghan in addition to Harry, Kate Middleton, and Prince William financially in his upcoming memoir Spare.

Harry expressed his concerns about it, speculating that his father might not want to cover Meghan's costs as a working royal since Charles didn't want her to steal his limelight.

To put things in perspective, Charles used his $28 million Duchy of Cornwall revenue in 2017 to cover the costs associated with the work of Prince William, Kate Middleton, and Harry.

The three royals drew from a fund of around $4.8 million to pay for their expenses, including Kate Middleton's fancy apparel and items like salaries and office bills.

According to a People article from March 2018, Meghan and Harry purchased all her attire for her royal engagements independently before the wedding.
