"Whatever he does, no matter how good he is doing with the Invictus Games or whatever prestigious awards he's winning, there's always going to be people at the moment who are going to chastise him for that and get very angry about that," he added. "Whatever he does or whatever Meghan does, they can't win."

In recent news, the pair were dropped by Spotify in June 2023, but the former royals are struggling to move past being labeled "f------ grifters" by Bill Simmons, an executive at the streaming giant.

"It all started to change through so many factors, and then you have executives in Hollywood calling them... 'expletive' grifters," U.K. policy adviser Lee Cohen shared. "Now that [was] just broadcast everywhere and social media created hashtags calling them 'Harry and Meghan are grifters' — what a terrible label to have."

He then added how "grifters is so at the other end of the spectrum from, you know, the royal family. It's unbelievable. But that 'grifters' comment will stay with them forever, and they're now the butt of Hollywood jokes by comedians and [in] cartoons... Everyone has their number, which is that they're whingers, complainers, hypocrites, all of this."

This follows reports about Meghan and Harry's four-year-plus attempt to reign supreme in Hollywood has reportedly failed. In her "never-ending" bid to become a Hollywood A-lister, the Duchess of Sussex may have to settle for "D-list" notoriety.

The royal rebels thought, "'We'll be at the center of this sort of royal court, and everyone will come to see us,'" royal expert Richard Eden dished. "But it never seems to be working out like that."

Harry and Meghan's attempt to transition into Hollywood has been met with varying degrees of scrutiny and challenges. Moving from the structured world of British royalty to the competitive and often unpredictable entertainment industry presented hurdles to the pair, even with Meghan's past acting experience.

Their shift involves not only adjusting to different roles and public expectations but also competing with established actors and personalities already entrenched in Hollywood. Furthermore, the public's perception of their move from royalty to entertainment figures adds another layer of complexity, with their motives and abilities frequently questioned.
