Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, facing challenges in securing significant deals outside the royal family's influence, appear to have fallen short of their ambitions despite various endeavors.
The Sussexes, who signed lucrative deals with streaming giants and sought connections with A-listers upon their move to the US in 2020, found themselves notably absent from the 2024 Golden Globe Awards. Royal author Angela Levin expressed her thoughts on their exclusion, noting that the couple wasn't invited to the prestigious event, potentially subjecting them to criticism, particularly aimed at Meghan.
The Hollywood Insider suggested that the Sussexes might be grateful for not receiving an invitation, anticipating potential mockery and jokes if they had attended.
Levin remarked on the conspicuous absence of Harry and Meghan from the Golden Globes, contrasting it with the presence of other notable figures like Oprah Winfrey and Gail King. The Hollywood Insider added that the Sussexes might have foreseen the potential scrutiny and humor they could face at such high-profile events.
Notably, comedian Jim Gaffigan made a controversial joke referencing pedophilia at the Golden Globes, leaving the audience taken aback. The joke came amid recently unsealed records related to Jeffrey Epstein, implicating more than 100 celebrities with some connections to the late sex offender.
Amidst the unfolding controversy, Meghan Markle faces scrutiny for her ties to Jeffrey Epstein. Reports indicate that Meghan attended a lunch at Epstein's New York home in 2010, just months before his arrest on sex trafficking charges.
While there is no evidence suggesting Meghan was aware of Epstein's illegal activities, her association with the convicted sex offender has raised questions. Megan's rumored past as a yacht girl and an alleged connection to Prince Andrew and Epstein have fueled speculation. Kirby Summers suggests that Markle may have been involved in trafficking and controlled by the same forces as Epstein.
Accusations of Meghan being a former yacht girl stem from an old photo on a yacht and her close friendship with actress Priyanka Chopra. Despite an invitation to join a yacht week in Croatia in 2016, Megan did not respond, and it later emerged she had visited Croatia two years prior.
The suggestion that Markle may have been involved with Prince Andrew and Jeffrey Epstein aligns with Virginia Roberts's lawyers' desire to subpoena her due to evidence placing her on Epstein's yacht at the same time as Prince Andrew. The intricate web of allegations and connections continues to cast shadows over the Sussexes' attempts to navigate their post-royal endeavors.
