Meghan and Harry have made their first paid appearance
since quitting the royal family.
They showed up at the swanky One Hotel
in Miami South Beach for a private investor's summit
held by JP Morgan Chase Bank.
A published report says Meghan was introduced
by "CBS This Morning" anchor Gayle King.
Meghan said a few words about her love for her husband
and then Harry spoke about
the trauma of losing his mother, Princess Diana.
The theme of the speech was mental health
and Harry really opened up to the audience
of high-rolling Wall Street investors.
He reportedly said he had been in therapy for years
to recover from his traumatic childhood.
Magic Johnson posted this photo of himself
and Alex Rodriguez at the event.
The speech is a sign of how Meghan and Harry
intend to support themselves.
I'm sure it was a half-a-million dollar appearance.
It might have been even a $1 million appearance.
The runaway royals made the 3,000-mile trip
from their hideaway on Vancouver Island, Canada
to Florida in total secrecy.
Flight records show a gulfstream owned by JP Morgan Chase
took off from Vancouver at 12:10 p.m. Wednesday
and landed at 8:03 p.m. in West Palm Beach.
It was all very hush, hush with a lot of security.
The couple is believed to have stayed
at the Palm Beach mansion of Meghan's pal Serena Williams.
It may be the first of many big paydays.
Their earning potential is unlimited.
They can outearn the Obamas.
They can outearn Kim Kardashian.
They can outearn Jay-Z and Beyonce.
Today it's being reported that Meghan
and Harry turned down an invitation
to present the Oscar for Best Picture
at Sunday's Academy Awards show,
presented last year by Julia Roberts.
