The Fall from Grace: How the Sussexes Became Tinseltown’s C-List

After relocating from the UK to Los Angeles in 2020, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were initially embraced by Hollywood.

They seemed poised to become the golden couple of Tinseltown.

However, as time went on, their relationship with the A-list crowd took a nosedive, leaving them struggling to regain their former status.

Their repeated critiques of the British monarchy have pushed them down to the C-list, and it's been quite a blow.

Back in London, Harry was a hot ticket.

With just a snap of his fingers, he could have had invitations pouring in for exclusive events.

A source revealed that this is a stark contrast to their current situation in America, which has left the couple feeling disheartened.

Once the darlings of the royal scene, they are now facing a harsh reality in their new home.

When Harry and Meghan first tied the knot, they rubbed shoulders with powerhouses like George and Amal Clooney, as well as Barack and Michelle Obama.

Those days, however, seem long gone.

Their former friends have distanced themselves after the couple aired family grievances in their Netflix docuseries.

Even Oprah Winfrey, often seen as a staunch ally, opted not to defend them in their time of need.

Reports indicate that many A-listers, including Tom Hanks, Julia Roberts, Jennifer Aniston, and Brad Pitt, are steering clear of Harry and Meghan.

The perception has shifted; they're now viewed as more akin to reality TV stars than respected figures in Hollywood.

This shift was glaringly evident when Meghan attempted to gather a star-studded lineup for her Archetypes podcast.

Meghan's ambition to feature Reese Witherspoon on her show hit a wall when the actress chose to prioritize her friendship with Kate Middleton instead.

This snub highlights how far Meghan has fallen in the eyes of her former peers.

Moreover, her comments about Lucy Liu, labeling her a “dragon lady,” sparked backlash and further alienated her from the entertainment community.

In another awkward moment, Meghan embarrassed Mariah Carey during a podcast discussion meant to celebrate the term “diva.”

When Carey complimented her, Meghan quickly dismissed it, creating an uncomfortable atmosphere.

This pattern of missteps has made A-list celebrities wary of associating with the Sussexes, fearing their private conversations might end up on another reality show.

Meanwhile, other stars have shown their loyalty to the British royal family.

David Beckham, after paying his respects to the late Queen, made headlines by supporting Prince William and Kate at the Earthshot Prize Awards.

Their friendship remains solid, with Beckham describing it as a normal relationship built on shared experiences.

Ryan Reynolds also expressed his excitement upon meeting King Charles during a recent visit to Wrexham.

In a surprising twist, Charles even made an appearance on Reynolds' Disney Plus reality series, “Welcome to Wrexham.” This move has reportedly rattled Harry, who now sees himself overshadowed by his estranged father.

As the Sussexes grapple with their dwindling popularity, whispers suggest that senior royals, including William and Catherine, have not watched their Netflix series.

While aides have briefed them on the content, the couple is unlikely to cozy up with popcorn for a viewing party.

This ongoing saga illustrates how quickly fortunes can change in the world of celebrity, especially when personal decisions lead to public fallout.

The Sussexes' journey from beloved royals to sidelined figures in Hollywood serves as a cautionary tale about the fragility of fame and the importance of maintaining relationships.
