The royal renegades, known for their headline-grabbing exits, faced a cold shoulder at the prestigious 2024 Grammys.

Trevor Noah, the bold host of the night, made sure they felt the sting of their fall from grace in the celebrity hierarchy.

Despite their efforts to mingle with Hollywood’s elite and reclaim their A-list status post their dramatic departure from the royal scene, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were conspicuously absent from the music industry’s biggest night.

Reports suggest that the real reason behind the Sussexes’ absence was Trevor Noah’s scathing remarks aimed directly at them.

It seems the couple chose to skip the event to avoid becoming the targets of Trevor’s sharp-tongued humor.

Looking back at the previous year’s Grammys, Trevor had humorously referenced Harry’s revelation about suffering frostbite during a polar expedition, contrasting it with James Corden’s move to Los Angeles without broadcasting such personal mishaps to the world.

The twist of fate was hard to miss – Meghan had previously featured Trevor on her now-defunct Spotify podcast, Archetypes, shortly before its abrupt end.

During his guest appearance, Trevor shared anecdotes about life lessons from his mother, unknowingly paving the way to his eventual exclusion from the Sussexes’ inner circle.

Trevor’s history of poking fun at the royal family, including King Charles III and their colonial legacy, should have served as a warning sign for Harry and Meghan.

Fast forward to this year’s Grammy Awards, and the Sussexes were notably absent from the star-studded event.

While Harry wasn’t in the running for any awards (unless there’s a category for most buzzed-about prince memoir), their no-show spoke volumes.

Their absence underscored the harsh reality of celebrity status – there are stars, superstars, and then there are those who become punchlines at the Grammys, courtesy of Trevor Noah.

As the music industry glittered with excitement, Harry and Meghan found themselves nursing wounded egos away from the glitz and glamour, reflecting on where their path had veered off course.

Despite their efforts to distance themselves from the spotlight, being the subject of a Grammy night roast served as an unexpected acknowledgment of their place in the celebrity landscape – a bittersweet validation of their journey, albeit not in the manner they had envisioned.
