Meghan Markle and Prince Harry Struggle to Make Friends in LA

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry, seem to be struggling to make friends in Los Angeles.

After distancing themselves from many of their previous acquaintances, the couple is now left with few friends.

In their desperation to create content for Netflix and Spotify, they have turned to actors Tom Holland and Zendaya for help.

According to a source, “Harry and Meghan are struggling to find the right mix of celebrity and genuine friends, so they're having to widen the net and approach new people.”

However, it appears that their attempts at making new friends have not been successful, as even their neighbors are selling their mansions to get away from them.

Rich neighbors such as Peter Sperling and Rob Lowe have sold their properties since Markle and Harry moved into town.

“You'd think property values would skyrocket when royalty moves in, with people eager to buy in and brag they're living next to a Duke and Duchess,” an insider said, “but the opposite seems true.

Even the super-rich were anxious to get out of Dodge now that the Sussexes were in town.”

Moreover, the couple is allegedly cutting their list of friends based on money, power, and influence.

They want to cut ties with A-listers that don't do them any good and only remain friends with the Obamas, the Clooneys, Catherine McPhee, and David Foster.

“At this point, it's quality over quantity,” the source said.

“It comes down to selecting those who are most compatible with their lifestyle, views, and philosophies.

And then shunning the people who don't make the cut.”

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle did extensive research on which A-listers they should keep in their circle.

The couple allegedly came to the conclusion that they cannot be associated with anyone whose reputation has been tainted by any form of scandal.

The couple's neighbors in Montecito have allegedly been fleeing the area because they don't want to live close to them.

At least three A-listers residing in the neighborhood have already sold their properties since Prince Harry and Markle moved in.

One of the three properties was sold to a trust, which means that no one might ever move into the home.

“A lot of people thought that more people would buy a property in the area because they want to live close to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.

But to everyone's surprise, the exact opposite was what happened,” a source claimed.

“The way people seem to be in a rush to move away from Harry and Meghan is a real black eye for the couple.

It shows that instead of being viewed as classy, they're looking like they're tacky.”

The insider also claimed that everything that Prince Harry and Markle have been doing is painting them negatively.

“So, even the wealthy people that they know don't want anything to do with them.

Everything they do paints them as crybaby, money-grubbing, snooty show-offs.

Now, even wealthy people who normally fawn and gush over royalty, apparently can't wait to move out of their neighborhood,” the source said.

This isn't the first time that Prince Harry and Markle were rumored to be neighbors from hell.

Shortly after they relocated to Montecito, tabloids claimed that the couple's neighbors were upset because of all the noise that they brought into the neighborhood.

Since a lot of people wanted to catch a glimpse of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, there were allegedly cars and tour buses everywhere in the neighborhood.

There were also, allegedly, renovations and some areas had to be closed down to prevent visitors from entering.
