Breaking News: Royal Family LIVE: Hollywood ‘done with’ Harry and Meghan after ‘wrecking ball’ moment….See More

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are said to upset after they were severely criticised in a Vanity Fair article.

A royal expert has described where the Duke and Duchess of Sussex now “stand in Hollywood” following the publication of a scathing Vanity Fair article about the couple.

The US publication did not hold back from reviewing the couple’s life in America as part of a feature marking Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s five-year anniversary since quitting royal duties.

Daily Mail columnist Maureen Callahan discussed the criticism alongside podcast host Kinsey Schofield on ‘Recollections May Vary’: “This cover story has a lot of teeth which is something most publications no longer have.”

She added: “Vanity Fair thought that they could take a wrecking ball to these two and just obliterate them, it tells you everything we need to know about where they stand in the industry. Whether it’s publishing, podcasting, streaming. It followed the Hollywood Reporter story, which basically said Hollywood is done with them.”

As well as taking a look at various deals they have had commercially since setting up home in Montecito, the article also did a behind-the-scenes take of interviewing a number of people, including those that have worked with the couple.

It comes as Meghan Markle’s latest Netflix project ‘With Love, Meghan’ has been pushed back, with the launch date now set for March 4, because of the devastation caused by the California wildfires and the original timing of the show.
