Harry and Meghan's Hollywood Struggles: Bad Luck, COVID, and Reputation Woes

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle attribute their struggles in achieving commercial success to bad luck and the timing of events, including the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic shortly after they left the royal family. The couple had hoped to capitalize on their fame with lucrative deals but were forced to wait due to the pandemic's disruption to business. While their Spotify deal has been canceled, Netflix remains positive about their partnership and is considering Harry's proposal for a new solo film about Africa. The couple also feels that unfortunate timing, such as Prince Philip's death and the queen's overshadowing of Meghan's podcast, has affected their projects. However, the Hollywood writer's strike is currently impacting their ability to develop further program ideas.
