Johnny Depp got $20M for a three-year contract. WME will get around 10% for its cut. The feds and CA will take about 45% in taxes. The leaves less than $4M/year for three years IF she’s able to secure a deal equal to what Depp made. See previous posts on expenses. They undoubtedly burn through more than $4M/year.


Perhaps they will have to adjust their lifestyle so they can live within their means.


Harry, like Andrew, knows he can always fall back on his family. He'll never be destitute or on his own. Meghan is in a much more precarious situation. She needs them to earn money now, in both their names, for her to have any long term financial security. The urgency has to be all on her side. Harry is set for life because even if the marriage blows up he has something to fall back on. They are very different in that regard which seems evident if they are having creative difference which led to the breakdown of the Spotify deal. They aren't motivated by the same things.


This. I notice that the press release mentioned that it was Meghan who was the WME's new client.

I think their exit from the royal family was rash and ill planned. And they’ve been scrambling ever since.

Worst timing ever because Covid hit just as they made their big exit. Everyone was sidelined for a few years and they lost all their momentum.

And they came across as privileged whiners when half the world was dying. Not a great look.

The Covid timing just a reinforced how out of touch they are. Going on TV in $2k dresses to complain about how terrible their lives were. Tone deaf.

No one ever asked if she was ok, and Waity Kaity was basically Jefferson Davis in a Jenny Packham dress, okay?

I love this thread.

They are toxic. Why would Dior give someone who is not aspirational a boatload of money? It would harm their brand. The gravy train is over. Their next gig will be a reality TV show on Bravo.


They hired Johnny Depp.


Depp has a long tenure with Dior. And Depp is a bonafide A-list movie star.
.

Excuse you! Meghan was the star of smash hit Suits! Kate and Baldemort were totes obsessed with her story arc and Dior knows that every woman in Canada bought out her items from Reitmans! Johnny Depp only made movies and was cute for a hot minute and Harry’s hair is totally there, if you think he has a tonsure going on get your eyes checked! If you think anything bad about them it’s because you’re a royalist and also respect the Duchess!

…I think I hit most of the talking points. I eagerly await the new faces of…Dior. I’m sure the September issues of all still in print fashion mags will be ever so slightly delayed in order to replace all of the 20something models with the most beautiful and compassionate woman currently alive. Ari Emmanuel totally thanks HIS lucky stars for the glory of getting to rep Meghan (and Harry). It’s all happening!


This is hilarious! You should write for Southpark 👍🏻.

I’m not surprised that they and Spotify are parting ways. They told Spotify it needed to clean up its act with the content it was allowing on the platform. I expected to hear an announcement then that were no longer working together.

I suspect they have been in talks since then to see if they can continue working together.

Indeed. That's the excuse for grifters.

Lol. I think Meghan truly didn't understand that Harry didn't have much money of his own (just the inheritance from Diana) and that everything he had in the UK was provided by Charles at his whims. The book mentions Harry didn't even have a credit card. She seemed genuinely shocked that W&K's housing and living allowances were significantly higher than Harry's.

I also disagree that Harry could just go back (without Meghan.) Maybe that was true before the docuseries and book, and maybe it was true when the Queen was still alive, but he publicized some pretty damning stuff about Camilla, Will & Kate and since Charles and William now control all the money, I don't see that going well for Harry.

Whether they are grifters or not have zero effect on my life.

Here you are, white knighting for these idiots who have gotten dumped and called out by someone who has actually met them and knows they are trash. Do you, boo.

He grew up royal, she likes to socialize with billionaires like Oprah Winfrey, Gwyneth Paltrow, Gorge Clooney, Tyler Perry and Serena Williams. How are they suppose to live within their mega millionaire means?


They will have to make new friends since they can no longer keep us with the Jones.

I’m sure they never dreamed Canada would say nope because it’s a commonwealth country and she’s friends with the PM’s wife. When that plan didn’t work, of course they moved to LA and had to pay for their own security. Marine thinking they could walk away from the royal family and still get the perks. I just think she’s so pathetic calling herself a duchess. Refuse to capitalize that for her! Prince Harry I understand, he was born a prince, but she was born meghan markle from the valley in California. Truly pathetic.


They really are grifters. That was one of her early conflicts with palace staff. She wanted all the freebie.

Is she from the Valley? I thought she was from Baldwin Hills or Culver City or something, no?

I know you get off on hating these folks that you’ve never met, but you’ve lost all perspective when you consider this “white knighting”:

”Whether they are grifters or not have zero effect on my life.”

Anyway, carry on jerking off in another Harry/MM hate thread. (This is my first and only post.)
