And staff at the Palace will reportedly be watching him “very closely”.

Royal Family ‘watching’ Prince Harry

Royal Correspondent Russell Myers told True Royalty TV’s The Royal Beat show that Palace officials will be “paying attention”.

“He’s going to be fabulously wealthy from things like this and attaching his brand,” said Russell.

“There is the argument that Harry could be trading off the royal brand. They said they wouldn’t do to uphold the values of the Queen?”

He’s going to be fabulously wealthy from things like this and attaching his brand.

“So it is very debatable at the moment,” he added. “People at the Palace will be watching this very, very closely.”

In a blog post, Harry revealed hopes to help people develop “inner strength, resilience and confidence”.

He said: “I firmly believe that focusing on and prioritising our mental fitness unlocks potential and opportunity that we never knew we had inside of us. As the Royal Marine Commandos say, ‘It’s a state of mind’. We all have it in us.

“Being attuned with your mind, and having a support structure around you, are critical to finding your own version of peak performance. What I’ve learned in my own life is the power of transforming pain into purpose.”

Prince Harry lands a second job

Just 24 hours after confirming his BetterUp job, Harry announced a second new role.

He is the commissioner at the Aspen Institute’s new Commission on Information Disorder.

However, he waited to make the announcement until after his and wife Meghan Markle‘s Oprah chat aired.

BetterUp CEO Alexi Robichaux said: “He’s been in the role for a couple of months, and we’re so excited to share the news with the world.”
