Meghan Markle is 'stressed as deals keep falling through', according to a source.
The Duchess of Sussex is struggling to secure her next lucrative deal.
Harry and Meghan signed lucrative contracts with streaming giants Spotify and Netflix after they stepped down as working members of the Royal Family in 2020.
However, Spotify dropped the couple last year after executives were left underwhelmed by their podcast.
An insider has claimed the Duchess of Sussex wants to take a step back and is expecting Prince Harry to make major moves in 2024.
The source told Heat magazine: "This year is make or break for them, and Meghan's told Harry to step up.
“So far it's been her doing the lion's share of the networking, and she's stressed - largely because so many deals have fallen apart.
“She wants to take a step back and feels it's time for Harry to get his game face on."

"I think she’s looking desperately for an endorsement with something like Dior and that’s been a disappointment because she hasn’t landed one contract."
However, an insider close to Dior has dismissed reports that talks with the Duchess of Sussex took place.
A source told the Telegraph: "The Duchess of Sussex is not in talks to sign a deal with Dior.
"There is no truth to the claims that she will partner with the French fashion house."
