There have been numerous comments surrounding Meghan Markle, with many suggesting that she is finding it difficult to control her unfavorable image.

It appears that the public perception she has cultivated has hindered her chances of earning respect for her true self.

Once again, she was not invited to a star-studded awards ceremony.

The 33rd Gotham Awards took place in Manhattan, where the debut film “A24 Past Lives” directed by Selena S. received the prestigious award for Best Feature.

This event, which marks the beginning of the awards season, celebrates outstanding and groundbreaking voices in storytelling within independent projects.

Charles Moulton was recognized for his supporting performance in “May-December,” and his co-star Julianne Moore took to Instagram to celebrate his achievement during the ceremony.

Lily Gladstone, known for her role in “Killers of the Flower Moon” alongside Leonardo DiCaprio and Robert De Niro, also attended and won for her outstanding performance in “The Unknown Country.”

Rumors have been circulating that Meghan Markle approached WME, a talent agency, in an attempt to purchase an award for a Netflix movie after being snubbed by the Oscars and Emmys.

She hoped that this award would help her establish more connections as a producer.

However, the significance of the award led to the decision not to sell it to Meghan.

Despite the CEO of WME having numerous connections in Hollywood, he chose not to get involved.

These rumors come after a source suggested that Meghan Markle may face challenges in her Hollywood career due to her age, being a woman over 40.

Recently, Meghan was not invited to the Variety Power of Women Gala.

While Meghan may see herself as a serious Hollywood power player who doesn’t require an invitation to such an event, it seems that no one in Tinseltown shares her views.

As a result, both Meghan and Harry face a perception problem.

Furthermore, Meghan and Harry must find new types of projects that go beyond bashing the royal family or highlighting their own interests.

Meghan’s appearance at the Variety event was seen as an attempt to rebrand herself as an entertainment power player in her own right.

However, her exclusion from the official guest list only fueled persistent rumors that Netflix is planning to quietly end its $100 million deal with the Sussexes when the contract expires in 2025.

Instead of improving her image, Meghan’s uninvited presence at the Hollywood event may be seen by some as pitiful, considering her previous role as an official representative of the British royal family.

An insider at a Hollywood studio revealed that many people believe the couple has made significant missteps.

In Hollywood, Harry is perceived as someone stuck in the past and consumed by grudges, while Meghan still manages to attract attention.

However, the challenge for her now is to convert that attention into tangible financial success.

Harry and Meghan face different obstacles, as Harry still maintains his connection to the royal family and could potentially find a way to return.

However, the question remains: Can Meghan find her own path in a project that doesn’t involve criticizing the royal family?

And if they do choose separate professional paths, what role would Harry play?

These are the challenges they must confront as they navigate their careers in the entertainment industry.
