Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been married for over a year. But royal fans are wondering if they are really happy together.

On the online forum site Quora, one royal fan asked if the Duke of Sussex is really happy with the Duchess of Sussex. But those who responded to the question couldn’t help but feel upset.

Pamela Harvey, a former expat in Britain and the Cayman Islands, said that she can’t speculate on Prince Harry’s happiness or the happiness of another person.

“Of course, 'happy' is a vague concept and difficult to define. Most of the time, it can only be experienced. You know when you have it, and you know when you don’t. I like this definition: 'happy' is not necessarily having what you want, but wanting what you have. This doesn’t mean you don’t want to change things, but you work for change without drawing attention to yourself, and you never use a platform or program to promote yourself. It’s about your work, and not about you,” she said.

Anni Selby, a company head, said that no one could answer the question with certainty. And even though the Duke of Sussex doesn’t look very happy in recent weeks, this may not have anything to do with his wife.

“I think he thinks Meghan is older and more sophisticated, therefore he defers to her even though royal protocol says that she should take her lead from him because he is the one with the senior title, she merely holds a mirror image of his title. They're doing it the other way around hence the motherly back rubs all the time,” she said.

Mary Maclaughlin made fun of the question by saying that the only way to know the answer to the question is to ask the crystal ball. After all, only Prince Harry knows the real answer to the question.

Kimberly Jones, a former salesperson, said that Prince Harry seems happy to her.
