They have cashed in since quitting as full-time royals, with rumoured £81million and £25million deals with Netflix and Spotify respectively.

Harry, 38, also got a £16million advance for Spare, his memoir, and Meghan, 41, is said to be working on hers, but they are believed to be seeking more ways to make cash.

They were introduced to Lilling, 53, by their US chat-show host pal Ellen DeGeneres at her vow renewal ceremony with partner Portia de Rossi, according to a respected website.

He works “at the intersection of celebrity and venture investing”, helping stars with start-ups.

A source told the Page Six website: “He’s worked with Ellen forever, as well as Matthew McConaughey and a bunch of A-listers.

"It is very possible Ellen introduced him to Harry and Meghan.”

Lilling and business partner Amanda Groves were named in The Hollywood Reporter magazine’s “top deal-makers of 2022” last December.

He said it was their mission to “take people who can affect change in the world and marry them with top operators and entrepreneurs”.

He is known to be fan of Harry and his former actress wife, who are also said to be considering making rom-coms for Netflix.

In August last year he praised Meghan’s “great” Spotify podcast with its chat with tennis ace Serena Williams.

He also re-tweeted a photo of Harry who spoke on therapy and mental health at a San Francisco summit, adding: “The happy ending he deserves.”
