Harry and Meghan have never exactly been short on headlines, and now there’s a whole new way to speculate about what the couple might get up to next. Forget the royal gossip column. The controversial couple now have their own betting market.
The latest specials on the Duke and Duchess of Sussex cover everything from Meghan potentially appearing in The Gentlemen Series 3 to Harry turning up at an Aston Villa match with his brother William. There are even markets on a pregnancy announcement and the couple separating.
It’s a pretty wild mix of potential developments. And considering that the couple have a habit of keeping themselves in the headlines, there’s no shortage of possibilities. So, what exactly can you bet on? Let’s take a look.
Could Meghan Join The Gentlemen?
Of all the betting options being offered, this one might have the most obvious Hollywood-to-Britain storyline. The Gentlemen is Guy Ritchie’s distinctly British crime comedy, following an aristocrat who inherits an estate and discovers it comes with a rather unexpected cannabis operation. The Netflix series became a hit with audiences, and the streamer has now confirmed a third season.
For Meghan, it would also be a neat way to revisit her acting career. Her best-known role was, of course, Rachel Zane in Suits, and The Gentlemen would put her back into a British production with plenty of star power behind it. Reports that she was in talks for Season 3 have already circulated, although those reports have since been followed by claims that her casting was withdrawn.
The odds currently have Meghan at +300 to appear in the third season, making it one of the more intriguing specials on the board.
Will Harry Join William at an Aston Villa Game?
If Meghan returning to acting sounds plausible enough, the next one takes us into slightly more unexpected territory. One of the specials has Harry priced at +2500 to attend an Aston Villa game with Prince William.
The choice of Villa is no accident. William has been a lifelong supporter of the Birmingham club, having picked them over the bigger teams his school friends followed. He has regularly been spotted in the stands, including alongside Prince George for a Champions League match in 2025.
That makes the real talking point less about football and more about the brothers sharing a few hours together in the stands. Given their complicated relationship in recent years, a shared day out at Villa Park seems unlikely. But with Harry having recently returned to Britain, a reunion isn’t completely out of the question.
Another Royal Baby on the Way?
This one would certainly get people talking. Harry and Meghan are already parents to Archie and Lilibet, who were born in 2019 and 2021 respectively. A third child would obviously be a major family announcement, which helps explain why it has made its way onto the specials.
There’s also plenty of history behind the public fascination with royal baby news. Meghan’s first pregnancy generated huge interest, with even the timing of the birth becoming a topic of speculation.
As things stand, there’s no indication that another baby is on the way, so this one is firmly in the “you never know” category.
But with the odds sitting at +1200 for Harry and Meghan to announce a pregnancy, that’s enough to make this a tempting long shot for anyone who thinks the Sussexes might have one more surprise up their sleeves.
Are Harry and Meghan Heading for a Split?
Harry and Meghan announcing a separation is also on the board, because apparently a royal betting market wouldn’t be complete without the possibility of a dramatic split. The prospect of Harry and Meghan ending their marriage is currently priced at +3000.
Predicting what happens behind closed doors is a tricky business, particularly when it comes to the royals. Few people could have predicted the breakdown of Charles and Diana’s marriage before their separation was announced in 1992, so it’s probably wise not to rule anything out completely.
To be clear, there’s no indication that the couple are planning to split. They continue to appear together publicly and have maintained their family life in spite of constant media attention. But given the amount of speculation that has followed their relationship over the years, it’s perhaps no surprise that oddsmakers have decided to put a price on it.
Will Harry and Meghan Move Back to the USA?
Harry and Meghan just returned to Britain, but apparently that’s not stopping the betting market from asking: could they already be planning a move back to the USA?
After stepping back from royal duties, the couple first settled in Canada before moving to California, where they spent several years building a new life in Montecito with their children. Their recent return to Britain makes this market particularly intriguing, as a move back to the United States would mean yet another chapter in the Sussexes’ rather eventful transatlantic journey.
At +4000, this is the longest-priced market on the board, so bookmakers clearly see a return to the USA as a pretty unlikely development. But that’s also what makes the potential payout so lucrative. If Harry and Meghan really do decide that Britain isn’t quite working out and announce they’re returning stateside, anyone who took the long shot could be looking at a very healthy payout.
