Hollywood’s A-League celebrated Oprah Winfrey’s birthday, but Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were missing from the mega party. Apparently, the talk show icon is currently not in good spirits with the Sussexes.
Los Angeles – In March 2021, the interview by Megan Markle (41) and Prince Harry (38) with talk show host Oprah Winfrey for global headlines. The Duchess and Duke of Sussex were very familiar with US superstar Winfrey and proudly presented their chicken coop, among other things. Not only since then have Meghan and Harry Oprah been among their closest confidants in Los Angeles. But now Winfrey celebrated her 69th birthday with an absolute star line-up – only Harry and Meghan were far and wide nothing to see.
Without Meghan and Harry: Oprah Winfrey prefers to celebrate with Kim Kardashian, Heidi Klum and Jennifer Lopez
Oprah Winfrey celebrated her 69th birthday on January 29, while “Eyebrow Queen” Anastasia Soare (66) invited to the 25th anniversary of her US cosmetics company “Anastasia Beverly Hills”. Numerous Hollywood superstars posted pictures of the mega party on Instagram, including a beaming Oprah being celebrated with a cake and a birthday song.
Kim Kardashian (42), Heidi Klum (49), Sharon Stone (64), Jessica Alba (41), Jennifer Lopez (53), Priyanka Chopra (40), Sofía Vergara (50), Rita Wilson (66) – the guest list could really be seen. Successful power women celebrated together, Meghan Markle does not seem to belong (anymore) to this illustrious circle. “Snubs like this show that the tide is turning for the Sussexes – and that the gamble in which they traded the lifelong obligation of being a working royal for the money and fame of being a celebrity has not paid off have”writes royal expert Kara Kennedy in her column for The Spectator.
Meghan and Harry on Oprah – The Interview
On March 7, 2021, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s interview with talk star Oprah Winfrey was broadcast in the United States. In it, Harry and Meghan commented in detail on their withdrawal from the British royal family and their move to California for the first time. In the conversation, the couple accused the royals of racist tendencies and denounced the lack of support for Meghan Markle. The interview attracted a lot of media attention worldwide.
‘He made her look stupid’: Here’s why Oprah Winfrey isn’t on good terms with Prince Harry
Oprah Winfrey is said to be upset that Prince Harry stressed in a TV interview for the release of his biography “Spare” that he and Meghan had never claimed that the British royal family was racist. That contradicts one of the strongest statements in the interview Harry and Meghan gave Oprah Winfrey in 2021. “It’s easy to understand why Oprah didn’t want the couple at her birthday party after Harry’s latest revelations,” says Kara Kennedy. “During his promotional tour for his autobiography – almost three years after her scandalous interview – he made her look stupid.”
Too much drama for Hollywood’s A-League, which Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan removed from guest lists due to their “ability to share,” Kennedy explains. Strong headwind for the royal dropouts, because they too Netflix bosses reacted madly to Prince Harry’s bio and are now demanding a very private home story from the Sussexes. It is questionable whether further revelations would restore Meghan and Harry’s reputation in Hollywood. Sources used: express.co.uk, spectator.co.uk
