TV presenter Nick Ede, who claims to have been friends with Meghan for a few years before she ever met Prince Harry, believes the Sussexes may have underestimated how much cache they would have in the world of Hollywood.
Mr Ede, who is the presenter of The Royal Agenda on Royalty TV and The Royal Box for Yahoo!, told the Express: “I think it’s quite interesting to have known her to now see what it’s like in LA for her. I’ve got lots of friends who live there, who know what their reputation is like and it’s changed a lot.”
He went on: “I think the thing is that you forget that in Hollywood royalty isn’t somebody with a title. It’s J.Lo, it’s Sharon Stone, it’s Beyonce, it’s the Kardashians. That’s their royalty.
“And also the Obamas or Clintons. If you’ve been in office, apart from Trump, then you’re seen as being a top dog. I think they have underestimated that in many ways.”
Nick said: “I think they came in and thought that the number one people on the block and they’re not really.
“They’re kind of quite far down really in that pecking order. And I think that’s been an issue with them, in that sense of stepping down.”
