We all know that in most relationships, one partner usually has a stronger personality. When we see the members of the royal family, we often forget that behind closed doors, their marriages are typical in so many ways. Usually, when royals make appearances, we are seeing them in a different light, and they don’t really share the personal details of their relationships. 

For the past few years, all eyes have been on Prince Harry and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex. They are one of the most intriguing couples in the entire British royal family, and their huge fan base is always interested in everything that they do.

Unlike Prince William and Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge, the Sussexes have made many changes since they got married, and the one thing that is not always clear is how or why they arrived at a certain decision. The couple likely has serious discussions in private, but many fans are still left wondering — is Meghan or Prince Harry the dominant partner?

A marriage that was truly meant to be

Prince Harry dated quite a few people over the years, there is certainly no doubt about that. Although he had more than one serious girlfriend, it almost seemed as if he would never be ready to settle down.

When Prince Harry met American actress Meghan, however, things changed for the better. Soon after it was announced that the two were in a serious relationship, the entire world was on the edge of their seats, just waiting for Meghan to step out with a sparkling ring on her finger.

It was obvious to anyone who saw them just how in love they really were. Finally, in November 2017, fans were delighted to learn that Prince Harry had proposed to Meghan.

A few months later, in May 2018, the couple officially became husband and wife, and according to Marie Claire, their relationship is still going strong.

As we know, Prince Harry and Meghan grew up in what seems like completely different worlds. He was born into the royal family and has never known anything different.

Meghan, on the other hand, was raised in sunny LA, California, and didn’t grow up in the public eye as her husband did. According to Insider, her life changed drastically after marrying into the royal family, and the changes may not have exactly been what she had anticipated.

While Meghan’s future husband spent his entire life living in a lavish palace, traveling the world, and experiencing royal life to the fullest, she was thousands of miles away, and although her parents were divorced, she had a pretty typical life that millions of people can relate to. Meghan had a close relationship with her parents, attended an all-girls Catholic high school, and then went off to college before landing her big break on the legal drama Suits.

So, is Meghan or Prince Harry the more dominant partner in their marriage? Well, according to Newsweek, Meghan may be a little more dominant than her husband, although we seem to think that they play equal roles.

While an expert feels that body language shows that Meghan has a stronger personality, we have to say that the duke and duchess have a shared companionship and complement each other perfectly.Â
