She’s giving up a lot to be married. Harry is estimated to be worth around $25 million, from his inheritance from Diana and his allowance from dad.
I'm quite impressed with her actually, she has done a fair amount of humanitarian work, and I think the couple have a good potential of achieving something in this field. I think Diana would have been pleased. :
