I like them just fine but I think it's becoming clear that they are pretty ordinary once you peel back the fame and title. Harry should continue his service work. He seems good at it.
Agree, I think they need to recognize that they are probably at peak public interest right now and they should make as much hay as they can with their memoirs and the Netflix deal, but it's going to dry up.
I think Megan's longterm scheme is probably some kind of production company akin to what Reese Witherspoon does, using capital from what they are doing now to invest in other projects, perhaps with a bent of promoting certain kinds of voices (Witherspoon makes an effort to make projects with women creators or based on books by and about women) that ties in with their advocacy work. Not sure if she can pull it off -- it will have to be mostly her because I don't think Harry brings much to the table there. But they can use his name recognition and personal story to built equity and bring attention.
But yes, they will need to be careful about money because the current spigot (the content deals specifically for their story) is already slowing to a trickle, and they have a lifestyle that could easily bankrupt them if they are not careful, until they can pivot to other revenue streams.
I do think they'll figure it out because we're talking about people who have the support and ear of people like Oprah and Tyler Perry. Whether you like H&M or not, t
hey are positioned to be very successful in Hollywood if they play their cards correctly.
