Meghan Markle and Prince Harry 'are focusing on future projects' after Emmy snub
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry will have been "disappointed" at being snubbed for an Emmy Award, but they will move on to "focus on future projects".
The couple had been expected to receive a nomination for their Netflix docuseries, in which Meghan and Harry made a number of explosive claims about the Royal Family. Despite being eligible, the show wasn't shortlisted.
According to a PR expert, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex will ignore the Emmy snub as they focus on their future careers.
Speaking exclusively to The Mirror, PR to the stars Mayah Riaz said: "The thing with awards is that there are so many of them. As anyone who is nominated for them (or not) know you'll win some and some you won't get nominated for. C'est la vie.

"Sometimes award snubs, such the Emmy are a bigger deal for everyone other than Harry and Meghan. This has no impact on their career at all."
The PR expert said it's unlikely Meghan and Harry made their documentary in the hopes of winning awards.
"Yes, award nominations and wins would be great but their reasons for doing the Netflix docuseries aren't for these nominations. They have their own reasons for it, which are bigger," Mayah told us.
