Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are facing ridicule after their absence from a highly-anticipated star-studded party.
Their non-appearance has been interpreted as a sign of Hollywood’s reluctance to embrace the couple.
The latest wave of criticism comes in the wake of reports that Beyonce, Kim Kardashian, Leonardo DiCaprio, Ben Affleck, Jennifer Lopez, Justin Bieber, and other A-list celebrities attended what has been dubbed the most exclusive party of all time.
Billionaire Michael Rubin hosted the extravagant event at his $50 million mansion in the Hamptons, marking a celebration of the 4th of July.
The event, which was captured on video and shared by sports merchandise billionaire Michael Rubin on Twitter, showcased glimpses of the iconic party.
Clips featured Jennifer Lopez and her partner Ben Affleck posing for pictures, while James Corden, former host of The Late Late Show and a close friend of Prince Harry, arrived with his entourage.
However, the Sussexes were notably absent from the festivities.
Michael Rubin’s guest list boasted an array of Hollywood’s elite, top-tier influencers, business tycoons, and sports stars, making it a truly star-studded affair.
The lavish white party took place at his opulent Bridgerhampton estate, according to News.com.
Meanwhile, because they were not invited to Rubin’s annual 4th of July weekend extravaganza at his beachside mansion, Meghan reportedly contacted Backgrid to photograph her children.
This latest blow follows the collapse of the couple’s $25 million deal with Spotify, leading to speculations that celebrities are distancing themselves from Harry and Meghan.
According to a source, Meghan had hoped to interview Taylor Swift for their Archetypes podcast, but the pop star politely declined, citing her busy tour schedule.
Meghan regarded Swift as a dream guest due to her embodiment of feminist values.
The source revealed that the news of Taylor’s refusal was a significant blow for Meghan, serving as a harsh reminder that others are attempting to undermine her and Harry.
The couple has also faced criticism for their Archetypes podcast, with The Guardian branding them talentless and the Wall Street Journal labeling them self-made Hollywood failures.
Despite this, Harry has been trying to reassure Meghan that they still have connections within the celebrity world, emphasizing that they do not need Taylor Swift to reinvent themselves or achieve success with Archetypes.
However, the snub remains a significant blow and a source of immense embarrassment for Meghan.
Insiders and royal sources now believe that Harry and Meghan will struggle to secure further opportunities in Hollywood, as they are increasingly viewed as con artists and scammers.
This damaging perception poses a threat to their aspirations for global domination and A-list status within the entertainment industry.
Showbiz Cheatsheet reports that it serves as a warning to other companies that the Sussexes may not be as genuine as they claim to be.
