Prince Harry reportedly harbors hopes for his wife Meghan Markle to return to acting and achieve Hollywood stardom.
According to In Touch Weekly, Prince Harry is actively pursuing opportunities for Meghan, convinced that she has the potential to reach A-list status in the entertainment industry. The couple recently celebrated their sixth wedding anniversary with a dinner at Lucky's Steakhouse in Montecito, California, accompanied by friends from the entertainment industry.
This event underscores Harry's continuous efforts to introduce Meghan to influential Hollywood figures. A source revealed that within Harry and Meghan's circle, it is well-known that he would love for her to get back into acting. He thinks it's unfortunate that she is not a superstar like Jennifer Aniston or Julia Roberts, and he's doing everything he can to change that.
Harry's deep investment in seeing Meghan's career flourish in the entertainment world is evident. However, the source also noted that Meghan may not share the same enthusiasm for a return to acting. According to the source, it's a bit cringe for the Duchess of Sussex. After marrying Harry, she always envisioned her life being more aristocratic, rather than dealing with the day-to-day grind of Hollywood.
While Harry believes that Meghan's return to acting could be beneficial for them, Meghan has different ideas. She is more focused on philanthropy work and the launch of her new lifestyle line, American Riviera Orchard. Meghan is more motivated by the type of service and activism that Princess Diana was known for. She's flattered by Harry's enthusiasm but is currently more focused on other pursuits.
Despite Harry's efforts to secure work for Meghan, there appears to be little interest in her talent. Meghan has faced criticism for her acting abilities and perceived lack of work ethic. Her career, which was centered in Toronto with the show "Suits" on a minor cable channel, has faced challenges.
As they navigate the fallout from their split with the royal family, Harry and Meghan may face another setback as Netflix reportedly loses interest in the couple. Their upcoming projects, including Meghan's cookery show and Harry's polo documentary, might not be sufficient to maintain Netflix's interest.
In summary, while Prince Harry may dream of Meghan's Hollywood success, reality seems to be presenting challenges that they must navigate together. Harry's efforts might be hindered by his lack of substantial connections or friends in the entertainment industry, making it difficult for him to pull the necessary strings.
