A royal expert is speaking out this week to claim that Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s career plans in the United States have been thrown “completely out the window.”

This allegation was made by royal expert Emily Andrews in the new Channel 5 documentary titled “Meghan at 40: The Climb to Power.” Meghan is set to turn 40 next Wednesday.

“Because of the royal brand they can get all these multimillion dollar deals but the problem with that is they have to keep reminding everyone that they’re royal and to do so that involves giving more and more away,” Andrews said, according to GEO TV. “They have to talk about more private moments.”

Royal historian Ed Owens chimed in to add, “Harry and Meghan has consistently argued that they don’t have sufficient privacy, that they’re lives are difficult and burdensome because of the glare of the media.”

“Then they go to the US and this narrative continues until they suddenly open up about everything by agreeing to an interview with Oprah Winfrey,” Andrews stated in response. “Suddenly this idea of privacy goes completely out of the window. Instead they are opening up very publicly knowing that millions of people are going to see and get a glimpse of the inside story behind the separation of Harry and Meghan and the house of Windsor.”

This comes after royal expert Daniela Elser warned that Meghan and Harry’s “novelty value” is “no longer quite what it once might have been” in the United States after more than a year of the COVID-19 pandemic.

“When they landed in Los Angeles in March last year their value as a highly bankable, rare commodity was peaking,” Elser said, according to The Express. “Their brand was on the ascendant.”

“Their arrival in the US collided with the advent of the coronavirus pandemic, snuffing out a lot of the momentum around their arrival in the States,” she continued.”They might have been ready and open for business but the nation was not. Fast forward to this year and with the US reopening and life returning to normal and something of the novelty value of a real-life Duke and Duchess in Tinseltown’s midst is no longer quite what it once might have been.”
