The latest news about Harry and Meghan: Why the Duchess of Sussex never got her “big break” in Hollywood, even though her father supported her.

There has been a rift between Meghan Markle and her father since 2018. Thomas Markle, her father, once told her that she had always wanted to be a star.

Reports in Express, UK, say that Thomas Markle, Meghan Markle’s father, said that his daughter had always wanted to be “a star.” Firstpost previously wrote about how Meghan Markle’s father has always been very supportive of her dreams of becoming a celebrity.

Goals vs. Realities

People never thought of Meghan as an A-list actor. Before she married Prince Harry, she was seen as a “C-list” actress whose biggest role was in a supporting role on the TV show Suits, not a top-tier Hollywood movie star. She was never a star, and people always thought she wasn’t very good at what she did. So, even though her father supported and helped her, she never really got a big part.

Firstpost has written before about how Meghan Markle has always been nervous and crazy about attention. People often called her a social climber who tried to show she had many Hollywood friends until Hollywood started to avoid the Harry-Meghan couple and favour the William-Kate couple.

Express reports that Thomas Markle, who used to be a lighting director in Hollywood, took Meghan to a red carpet event when she was a child. Tom Bower, who just celebrated the release of his book Betrayal: Power, Deceit and the Fight for the Future of the Royal Family, was there. However, despite her father’s connections, her career in Hollywood never really took off. Many experts think that this was likely because she was very jealous.

Why did Meghan’s job in Hollywood never take off, even though her father is connected in the business?

Firstpost recently wrote about how Meghan Markle used to have connections in Hollywood, but now those connections are going to Kate and William. A story in the Daily Mail says that Meghan Markle wanted to work in Hollywood as a child, just like many other girls her age who grew up in Los Angeles. The future Duchess was lucky that her “famous” father, Thomas Markle, worked in the business as a lighting director and gave her an edge that other actors could only dream of. Still, Meghan’s job in Hollywood wasn’t as successful as those of Angelina Jolie or Leonardo DiCaprio, who are both from Los Angeles.

The Netflix failure of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle tried to place the blame on others when their Netflix project didn’t work out. On the Royalist show, Tom Sykes of the Royalist talked to Matt Donnelly, top reporter for Variety Magazine, about Harry and Meghan’s deal with Netflix. Skyes said, “He tells me that the Sussexes have ‘tried to shift blame’ for some of the failures that have happened under their watch. He tells me that top talent doesn’t want to work with them because they don’t need ‘an extra layer of headache.'”
