While the source said they would be 'stunned' if the couple ever split romantically, they do seem to have different goals, with former Suits actress Meghan dreaming of being a billionaire and a celebrity.
Speaking on The Sun's Royal Exclusive show, Newsweek's Chief Royal Correspondent Jack Royston said: 'Imagine if Meghan left Harry, it would destroy her reputation.
'She would be eviscerated publicly because she's already slipped into this kind of category on social media, the way that pop culture commentators talk about her.
'They lump her in with these other famous women who are perceived as being narcissistic or being controlling of their husbands.
'Alec Baldwin's wife got this treatment the other day. So Blake Lively as well.
'So if she walked out on Harry, she would never reputationally survive it.
'But then Harry without Meghan, what's his life in America going to be like?'
Editor-in-Chief of Majesty Magazine Ingrid Seward said: 'I think that they are dependent on each other though.'
She added that she didn't think that Prince Harry would ever leave his two children, Prince Archie, six, and Lilibet, three.
Ingrid continued: 'Well, he wouldn't leave the children.

'And in America, the rules about children, it's they're always with the mother, nearly always. 'So it's not going to happen.
'Do you remember when they got married, a lot of members actually of the royal family even said it won't last five years.
'It's lasted seven.'
After Ingrid claimed that Harry and Meghan have a 'symbiotic relationship', Jack shared: 'They need each other.'
He added: 'With Harry she's nothing.
'And without her, Harry's life in America is nothing.'

However, Jack added: 'He has a reputation to fall back on.'
Currently Prince Harry is increasingly estranged from Britain and his family amid defeat in his High Court battle to overturn a protection downgrade since their 2020 'Megxit', when he and Meghan quit as working royals to live in the US.
While the Prince has raked in millions by revealing family conversations and secrets in his best-selling memoir, Spare, Meghan has become a 'mumpreneur', with a string of major launches, from a cookery show to a jam-selling business.
Sources have insisted it is normal for couples not to spend all their time together.

Shocking moment tennis star Musetti BOOTS ball at female line judge's chest sparking fan fury at French Open
COURT OUT Shocking moment tennis star Musetti BOOTS ball at female line judge's chest sparking fan fury at French Open ITALIAN STALLION Lorenzo Musetti risked a possible default from the French Open after he kicked a ball into a line judge's chest. The Wimbledon semi-finalist, 23, beat American Frances Tiafoe 6-2 4-6 7-5 6-2 in the quarter-finals at Roland Garros. 7 Lorenzo Musetti was warned for unsportsmanlike conduct during his French Open match with Frances Tiafoe Credit: Getty 7 Musetti furiously kicked a tennis ball away Credit: X @tntsports 7 The ball hit a line judge in the chest Credit: X @tntsports 7 Musetti apologised immediately afterwards Credit: X @tntsports Yet he was fortunate not to be disqualified from the competition for his actions after losing game eight of the second set when he kicked a stray ball in frustration right at a female official. Tiafoe, 27, highlighted the situation to the umpire as he went to change racquets. In the end, the No.8 seed received a warning for unsportsmanlike conduct but it could have been much worse. There have been precedents for this – Novak Djokovic was eliminated from the 2020 US Open for the same thing and Tim Henman was famously KO-ed from Wimbledon for injuring a poor ball girl in 1995. Henman, working as an analyst on TNT Sports, said: 'By the letter of the law, if you hit or kick a ball away in frustration, and it hits a ballboy, line-judge or umpire that can be a disqualification. 'When you look at that, the umpire could have interpreted that as a disqualification. 'If Musetti was disqualified for that, he'd feel very unlucky and aggrieved. 'But when you're kicking a ball away, you've either got to be a better footballer and kick it in the right direction. Or you are risking something like that.' 7 Musetti beat Frances Tiafoe 6-2 4-6 7-5 6-2 Credit: Getty 7 Musetti celebrated reaching the semi-finals Credit: Getty Musetti – who showed off his muscles to the crowd when he won – is the third Italian, after Matteo Berrettini and Jannik Sinner, to reach semi-finals on multiple surfaces at Grand Slams. Boris Becker, the three-time Wimbledon champion, said: 'The German umpire Timo Janzen did an excellent job. Novak Djokovic digs out French Open rival for 'spying' on him and seeing Champions League trophy 'You can't disqualify Musetti over something like that. The warning was justified, but you can't compare it to Djokovic. 'The internet needs to calm down. Everyone's trying to be holier than the Pope. But let's keep things in perspective. It was a warning, not a disqualification.' Fans online were less forgiving than the two retired pros, making their feelings clear on social media. One asked: "How is this not a default??" While another added: "Djokovic was banned for a whole tournament for a lot less!" A third wrote: "Default. Rules are rules. Foe should be through. It's a disgrace." And a fourth posted: "Default. The inconsistency and double standards in decision-making is making me grow cold toward tennis."

Inside the Ukrainian frontline strip club where brave dancers flout curfew to perform to punters enduring hell of war
'Our goal is to be a switch from what is happening,' says the club's owner DANCE THE PAIN AWAY Inside the Ukrainian frontline strip club where brave dancers flout curfew to perform to punters enduring hell of war AMID the missiles and misery of life on Ukraine's front line, there is one night-time spot which refuses to be beaten. In Kharkiv, Ukraine's second-largest city, the Flash Dancers strip club is still swinging - offering a temporary escape for the embattled locals. 9 The doors of Flash Dancers - a strip club in Kharkiv - remain open despite the raging war Credit: Getty 9 Club dancer Anny, 21, gets her costume and makeup ready ahead of a night of entertainment Credit: Getty 9 The women-owned business opens nightly - despite a strict 11pm curfew Credit: Getty Flash Dancers is a women-owned business which opens its doors every night - flouting the 11pm curfew. It offers exclusive, exotic entertainment to anyone who pays. Prostitution is illegal in Ukraine, so strip clubs find themselves in legal grey area. But the law was lightly applied before the war - and now the authorities seem to accept that momentary indulgence can be tolerated. Read more world news DIZZY HEIGHTS Inside world's craziest city where you never know which floor you're on Valeriya Zavadskaya, the club's co-owner, told Business Insider in 2023: "Our goal is to be a switch from what is happening." Her mother, a former professional Soviet dancer, opened the club a decade ago. The dancers arrive in the afternoon to practice their routines. By night time, they're dressed to the nines in ornate burlesque outfits to entertain their clients. The club is dimly lit in soft red glow as the doors swing open to welcome customers. There are never more than 20 in a night - and sometimes no one shows up. I went on holiday to UKRAINE - I fled £7-a-night hostel during air raid siren on first night…but it didn't spoil my trip More than a million residents have fled Kharkiv since war broke out, meaning fewer people are looking for entertainment. Drinks have also tripled in price since before fighting began. While the club is a haven for both staff and punters, the signs of war are inescapable. The windows on the three floors above the club are boarded up after an explosion in the city centre shattered every pane on the block. And Flash Dancers is underground, so it doubles up as an air-raid shelter. When the sirens sound, people scurry down to wait out rocket strikes in the red-leather booths surrounding the dance pole. But despite it all - the doors of Flash Dancers remain open. 9 Flash Dancers club owner Valeria Zavadksa trains a dancer before the club opens Credit: Getty 9 Zavadksa is a former professional Soviet dancer Credit: Getty 9 Pole dancer Nana performs at the club Credit: Getty Valeriya says: "It's something you can't say with words, but can tell with your body." Her founder mother Valeriia Kseniya now has a day job too as director of a small hotel. She told Business Insider: "For most of us in Ukraine today, it's difficult to earn a living in just one job." In 2014, she heard of a city-centre strip club closing down - and recognised her opportunity to bring her love of dance to the city she called home. With dreams of a modern-day Moulin Rouge, she hired a handful of women who could dance, and began crafting her vision. She says: "Everyone initially thought it was a club with happy endings. "Our position is that girls are not meat. Girls are about aesthetics, about femininity, about beauty." 9 Dancers Anny (left) and Nana share a drink as the club opens for business Credit: Getty 9 Ukrainian servicemen fire a Howitzer towards Russian troops on a front line in Ukraine's Kharkiv region Credit: Reuters
