Despite Meghan Markle's prior ties to Hollywood, her and Harry's grip on the industry is reportedly slipping. After being snubbed in the Emmy nominations, the pair are reportedly seeing their empire fall around them. An insider believes Prince William and Kate may be the reason.
A source told Heat Magazine: "Nobody wants to risk their standing in the UK by not being seen as team William and Kate."
Celebrities and industry key players are recognising Meghan and Harry's depleting popularity and are scared of being seen alongside them. In fact, the source said they are actively pitching Will and Kate for new projects.
