The Duke and Duchess of Sussex Struggle to Gain Support in the Entertainment Industry
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have faced another significant setback in the US as Hollywood insiders reportedly distance themselves from the couple. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, who have been trying to establish a foothold in the entertainment industry, are not being taken seriously by the Hollywood elite, according to a recent report.
Their absence from last week's prestigious WME Emmy bash in Beverly Hills has fueled speculation about the industry's "genuine dislike and distrust" towards them. While it remains unclear whether they were not invited or chose not to attend, their noticeable absence has raised eyebrows.
WME, one of Hollywood's top talent agencies, signed Meghan as a client last April with a focus on expanding her business ventures across film, television, and brand partnerships. However, it seems that the couple is struggling to gain traction within the industry.
A senior Hollywood figure commented on the situation, stating, "Harry and Meghan seem to be reaping the kind of 'schadenfreude with extra venom' at which the entertainment business excels." The source added that the couple's film and television credibility is being questioned, and it is increasingly difficult to find anyone speaking positively about their potential in the industry.
This development suggests that mainstream Hollywood may never have fully embraced the Montecito-based couple, who continue to face challenges in solidifying their presence in the competitive world of entertainment.
