Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have allegedly been talking with Barack and Michelle Obama about how to build a successful career.

"They have found huge commercial success without actually looking like they are getting their hands dirty, to put it bluntly, and retaining their popularity," a source told the Daily Mail about the couple's fascination with the Obamas. "In fact, it is fair to say that their star has soared since leaving the White House, particularly Michelle’s, and this is something Meghan admires very, very much."

The source said the Obamas are advising Harry and Meghan, and they consider each other "friends." Public relations guru Howard Bragman said the Obamas are an example for the couple of how to "make money and keep it classy."

Harry and Meghan announced Wednesday their decision to step back as senior royals. The pair signaled they want to keep their titles despite their desire to give up their royal duties.

The majority of the British public wants the couple stripped of their titles and thrown off the taxpayer dime. Senior courtiers have also said there will be consequences over the pair's decision.
