Were the Sussexes just “really unlucky”?

After the end of Prince Harry (38) and Duchess Meghan (41) as working senior royals, the couple moved their center of life to the United States.

In fact, a number of projects have appeared in recent months and years, including an autobiography by Harry (“Spare”), a children’s book by Meghan (“The Bench”), a Netflix docu-series (“Harry & Meghan”) and Meghan’s podcast ( “Archetype”).

However, there were repeated prophecies of doom that the multimedia empire was not running as smoothly as one would apparently like. However, there were no official statements from the couple. However, the two are said to think that they have been “really unlucky” in recent years. According to a Los Angeles insider – Harry and Meghan live in nearby Montecito – to the UK Daily Mail.
