A royal expert has laid bare Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s plans and how they are having a tough time getting attention from the general public.
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are reportedly “struggling for content” following their departure from Royal Family drama, an expert has suggested.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex stepped down as senior working royals in 2020 before opening up about life behind the Palace walls.
In their Netflix docuseries and during the much-talked-about interview with Oprah Winfrey, Meghan and Harry have been critical of their former life, expressing strong opinions against the Royal Family.
The duke also criticised his family in his debut memoir, Spare, referencing his brother Prince William, and father King Charles.
Despite their efforts to move beyond the feud, the Sussexes’ attempts seem to be falling short, according to royal commentator Andrew Pierce.

During an appearance on GB News, Lord Kulveer Ranger said: “They’re really struggling to get the content. It’s all about content. If you want people listening to your podcast and the clicks, you’ve got to have something to say.”
Andrew added: “Is the point here that unless they’re b**ching about the Royal Family, there’s no way they can monetise?” Lord Ranger agreed, but said, “monetisation of the family only had so much room”.
However, over the last few months, Meghan and Harry have stopped talking about the Royal Family.
The Duchess of Sussex has started her new lifestyle brand, American Riviera Orchard, while Harry is producing a new Netflix show about polo.
She will also be producing a new Netflix show, focusing on “the joys of cooking, gardening, entertaining, and friendship”.
Andrew suggested Meghan might struggle to make a success of her show, saying: “Nobody is going to tune into Netflix to see her making a pot of jam.”
Harry and Meghan’s new shows are still being worked on, but we should hear about when they will be out in the next few months.
Harry’s show is being made by Boardwalk Pictures, the same company that made Chef’s Table and Pepsi, Where’s My Jet?.
Meghan’s show, on the other hand, will be made by Sony Pictures Television’s The Intellectual Property Corporation, and she will be the face of it.
For Harry’s polo series, Miloš Balać, who worked on Welcome to Wrexham before, will be in charge. And for Meghan’s show, Leah Hariton and Michael Steed will be running the show.
