Harry’s Memoir Sparks Public Roasting in the US

Prince Harry's media blitz promoting his memoir, Spare, has resulted in a degree of public criticism he may not have anticipated in the United States.

Since the release of the royal's 400-page book on January 10th, along with various TV interviews promoting it, he's been the b*tt of jokes in American late-night talk shows.

Despite being a close friend of Prince Harry's, James Corden didn't hold back from poking fun at the royal on the Late Late Show.

Corden seized on the story of the prince losing his virginity at 17 in a field behind a pub to an older woman.

The royal had previously dismissed the section as only four lines and not worth elaborating on in his British promotional appearance for the book.

Corden joked that “it happens to a lot of guys the first time” and that losing one's virginity in a field or a pub was not great, but doing so in a field behind a pub was terrible.

The release of Harry's explosive memoir has caused a considerable drop in popularity for the Sussexes in the United States.

A royal commentator noted that Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are now seeing how the loudmouths that helped them open doors in the US have turned against them.

The couple's omission from Oprah Winfrey's birthday party, which was attended by A-list megastars, could be a signal that they are falling out of favour in Hollywood.

Harry and Meghan have repeatedly boasted about their famous friends while transitioning from royals to celebrities.

The Duke even dedicated a section of his memoir to paying tribute to pals James Corden, Chris Martin, and even snubbed talk show host Oprah Winfrey.

However, this could backfire as the Harkles continue to share details of their conversations or backtrack on previous claims, potentially alienating their so-called friends.

The Today 4 podcast host, Kinsey Schofield, pointed out that while having Tyler Perry and Oprah in their corner is a huge help, most individuals don't want to pick a side and prefer to avoid drama.

Schofield believes that Harry and Meghan's memoir and Netflix documentary will ultimately hurt their relationships with the Hollywood elite.

The Harkles' use of their friends' names in their memoir and interviews has caused discomfort for some, including intensely private Beyonce, who may not have given Meg permission to read a text message she sent the Duchess verbatim to millions of Netflix subscribers.

Additionally, Courtney Cox probably didn't expect to be called out for a magic mushroom chocolate party in Spare, and Gayle King faced backlash from the internet when Harry denied the existence of a royal racist after she claimed that her friends, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, had receipts.

According to a Hollywood insider, the Sussexes equal drama, and everyone is starting to realise that they never intended to have a quiet life.

The couple's repeated attempts to use their celebrity status and famous friends to promote themselves have resulted in a considerable backlash.

It remains to be seen whether the Harkles can recover their popularity in the United States or if their attempts at transitioning to celebrity life will backfire.
