Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s Hollywood influence reportedly declines as insiders claim there is "no appetite left for them"

Once upon a time, everyone wanted to know what Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were up to. Now, it looks like people have had enough of the royal couple. According to a Hollywood source, they told Page Six:

"There is not only no appetite left for them in LA, but they've also worn through any good will they had."

Another source added that not only are people tired of them, but they are "sick" of them. In their words:

"People are sick of them, the act has gotten stale."

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle in the entertainment industry

Over the years, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have appeared on television shows and even had their own documentaries. Some of the television shows the couple has been on after getting married are:

• Queen of the World
• Harry & Meghan: An African Journey
• Rising Phoenix
• Oprah with Meghan and Harry
• The Me You Can't See
• Harry & Meghan
• Harry: The Interview
• Prince Harry: In His Own Words
• With Love, Meghan

However, according to the source, the royal couple is not very skilled when it comes to business. The source said:

"They’re just hopeless in professional settings."

Netflix recently changed its deal with the couple. They first signed a $100 million multi-year contract, but it has now been renewed as a first-look deal instead.

Furthermore, the source also revealed a few incidents in the past that made Prince Harry unprofessional. One time, he arrived late to a Netflix meeting and asked one of the executives to fetch him a hot chocolate. This was not the first time this has happened, and it seems to be his favorite beverage.

Another source that supports this is a Spotify employee, who told Vanity Fair that the prince asked for the same drink, but:

"There was none in the office, so employees scrambled to obtain some."

Additionally, an idea formed from this interaction, which the source elaborated on:

"An idea was pitched to Harry — what if he reviewed a hot chocolate every week while chatting with a different friend… which he and his team considered and rejected."

There are similar stories of Meghan Markle in business settings as well. The source commented on how Meghan seems to wear the pants in the relationship, by saying that she is the one who "controls everything."

They also mentioned:

"She's convinced she's smarter than everyone and dismissive."

Vanity Fair published a story where an anonymous person who worked with the Duchess of Sussex said that their experience was:

"really, really, really awful. Very painful."

Furthermore, the source told Page Six:

"She belittles people, she doesn't take advice. They're both poor decision-makers, they change their minds frequently. Harry is a very, very charming person — no airs at all — but he's very much an enabler. And she's just terrible."

In the end, it seems like public interest in Harry and Meghan has faded. While the couple has tried to build a strong presence in the entertainment world, industry insiders say they still struggle professionally.
