Meghan Markle Faces Setback as High-End Brands Turn Away from Crumbling Hollywood Career

Meghan Markle appears to be facing rejection from several high-end brands, as her Hollywood career encounters significant challenges. PR expert Mark Borkwoski shared insights on the Duchess of Sussex's recent red carpet appearance at Variety's Power of Women gala in November 2023, suggesting that such public displays are attempts to attract casting opportunities and bookings.

Borkwoski commented, "Look, if you’re appearing on red carpets and premieres, that means you’re putting yourself on show for the type of people who might cast you, book you, use you. That’s what Meghan’s been about."

The California-based couple, Prince Harry and Meghan, experienced financial setbacks in the previous year following the release of Harry's tell-all memoir "Spare" and Omid Scobie’s 'racist royals' claims in "Endgame." Meghan reportedly lost a potentially lucrative Dior contract to "The Crown" actress Meg Bellamy, and their foundation Archewell faced challenges with generous donors.

Reflecting on the couple's challenging year, Borkwoski remarked, "Netflix hasn’t really worked, Spotify hasn’t really worked, and that is because the sort of content that they feel they want to produce, the platforms don’t believe it has any value."

In 2023, the strained relationship between Harry and Meghan and senior members of the royal family further impacted their careers, contributing to their challenging professional situation.
