As per a prominent Royal expert, Harry and Meghan endured a tumultuous year and have become a subject of global ridicule.
The year commenced with plummeting ratings for their Netflix docu-series and the controversial release of Harry's memoir, "Spare." Subsequently, they faced a near-catastrophic car chase incident in New York, and Spotify confirmed the termination of their agreement.
Despite some positive moments, such as the success of the Invictus Games and Harry's victory in a phone hacking case, the release of Omid Scobie's "Endgame" dealt a severe blow to hopes of reconciliation with the royal family. Rafael Manu expressed on GB News that this has been a disastrous year for the couple, marked by two disastrous books and a privacy tour that turned them into a global laughingstock.
Harry and Megan encountered backlash for not addressing the controversies in Scobie's book, with many experts advising them to distance themselves from the author. Recently, Megan was branded a narcissist by US radio host Kim Commando, who emphasized the growing realization in American media about the couple's true nature.
The couple's move to California, aspiring to become American Royals, has backfired, with them now being compared to Thanksgiving turkeys, according to PR Guru Mark Bowski. He suggests that the couple needs to reconsider their tactics for the new year to stay relevant, highlighting the critical juncture they find themselves in. Bowski foresees 2024 as either the best or worst year for Harry and Megan, urging them to either recover and adopt a new positive approach or risk the undoing of their brand.
The ongoing scrutiny surrounding the couple is deemed detrimental, creating a negative image in Tinsel Town. Bowski emphasizes the need for a significant shift in tactics, as the current approach clearly isn't working, and the couple's standing in the industry might be at risk. The choice for Harry and Megan in 2024, according to Bowski, is between recovery and a new positive strategy or the potential unraveling of their brand.
