Renowned royal commentator Jan Moir voiced her critique in an article for Perth Now, delving into the perceived parallels and contradictions within the project.
Moir acknowledged the character similarities, noting that one central figure named Will, described as tall and aristocratic, wears a distinctive gold signet ring. However, she humorously pointed out that any resemblance to real individuals is likely more detrimental than flattering, given that the character is later described as a 's^^ dream'.
Amidst these musings, Moir pondered the underlying motivations, expressing, "'What is going on here?' It's like the Kardashians launching a credit card after their Dash boutique and that whimsical souvenir shop in Las Vegas faced setbacks. It appears to be an all-hands-on-deck effort to keep the momentum going."
Interestingly, Moir's observations emerge even as she acknowledges that Harry and Meghan "find themselves in a rather desperate need for a hit." Despite this urgency, she playfully speculates that their next endeavors might involve launching their own brand of tequila or even casting their rescue chickens in unconventional roles.
This commentary unfolds against the backdrop of Prince Harry's literary success with his autobiography, "Spare," which achieved global sales in the millions. However, Moir highlights that achieving success beyond this realm has proven challenging for the couple.
In essence, the forthcoming rom-com has triggered discussions that span from character analysis to satirical parallels, revealing the complex intersection of celebrity, creativity, and public perception.
