In April, Meghan signed with WME for representation, a notable agency known for its representation of top artists across various entertainment fields, booking over 30,000 dates globally. However, a source close to former Dynasty star Joan Collins has confirmed that WME has indeed parted ways with Meghan. Joan Collins revealed that WME had only signed a six-month contract with Meghan as a trial period, which means the contract will expire in October.
Joan Collins also disclosed that WME had been hesitant to sign Meghan for four years. She speculated that Harry, being aware of Meghan's reputation, would have known the potential risks. Additionally, Joan warned WME that if they continued to represent Meghan, they could face the departure of their other prominent celebrities.
During an interview, Joan Collins was asked about Meghan Markle's pursuit of a blockbuster film deal. In response, she visibly laughed and proclaimed the question to be a joke. She expressed uncertainty about the accuracy of the rumors surrounding WME and Meghan, but if true, she believed it would be a significant loss for WME.
Joan Collins further commented on Meghan's career trajectory, noting that for nearly a decade, Meghan struggled as an actress, auditioning for various roles in movies, TV shows, and commercials. Despite the support from her father and ex-husband, Meghan's attempts in the entertainment industry, including podcasts, documentaries, and Harry's book, were perceived as failures. Joan emphasized that Megan's unfavorable reputation made it challenging for anyone to invest in her future projects.
Joan Collins, known for her long-standing career in the entertainment industry, having started at a young age and trained at Rada before signing a contract with 20th Century Fox, gained fame for her portrayal of scheming Alexis Carrington in the 1980s soap opera Dynasty.
The exchange between Joan Collins and the interviewer became a topic of discussion on social media in 2022. Users expressed their admiration for Joan's remarks, while some perceived Meghan as a joke and a laughingstock in Hollywood.
These comments from Joan Collins followed reports in 2020 that Meghan desired her agent to secure a superhero role in a Hollywood blockbuster film. Her agent, Nick Collins, was said to be actively seeking such opportunities for her. However, the recent turn of events and the perception of Meghan and Harry as talentless grifters by influential industry figures have made it challenging for them to secure financial backing for future projects.
With their association with the royal family no longer accessible, some believe Meghan and Harry's ability to generate significant revenue has diminished significantly. Their alleged talent of criticizing the royal family is seen as no longer profitable, leaving doubts about their financial prospects moving forward.
