Harry and Meghan 'held talks with streaming platform Quibi a YEAR before Megxit' despite telling Oprah they 'had no plan' when leaving the Royal family
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex were discussing projects with a billion- dollar backed US streaming service a year before they stepped down as senior members of the Royal family, it has emerged. The Sussexes had a series of meetings with Quibi, a now-defunct rival to YouTube, from early 2019 until after they dropped their 'Megxit' bombshell in January last year. The Duke returned from the so-called Sandringham Summit to meet executives from the short video platform in London as plans for him to provide content apparently reached advanced stages. In their interview with Oprah Winfrey, the couple said that they “didn’t have a plan” upon leaving the Royal family, but The Telegraph has learnt that they had talks with executives of the £1.3 billion start-up before their son Archie was born in May 2019. The discussions are understood to have led to tensions with Palace staff fearful they would be accused of “cashing in” on their status, and because the couple were predominantly consulting Meghan’s US-based team of advisers. A source with knowledge of the situation said: “There were well-developed proposals in place with Quibi from early 2019.” A royal source added: “A lot of it was orchestrated by Meghan’s people in America. It was a bit of a secret squirrel.” They told Oprah Winfrey they “didn’t have a plan”. Revealing that they had been “cut off” by the Royal family, Harry, Duke of Sussex, insisted that he and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, only signed deals with Netflix and Spotify out of immediate financial necessity. “Because you didn’t have a plan?” prompted Ms Winfrey. “We didn’t have a plan,” replied the Duchess, with the Duke adding: “We didn’t have a plan. That was suggested by somebody else by the point of where my family literally cut me off financially, and I had to afford . . . afford security for us.” https://www.telegraph.co.uk/royal-fa...m-year-megxit/ top DM comment to date: Meghan: I had no plans to leave, I just kept all of my American agents, lawyers, and PR and had constant talks behind the royals backs about how to monetize my royalty. Harry is literally the only one on the planet who doesnt see it. |

"The newspaper also reported Meghan Markle continued to consult her US-based advisors, including her lawyer Rick Genow, business manager Andrew Meyer, talent agent Nick Collins and PR Keleigh Thomas Morgan, while she was a working royal.
This frustrated aides in Britain, who found it difficult to keep track of commercial deals the couple were planning." told Winfrey "we didnt have a plan" |

self-oscillating

the big question is .... why does anyone care?
They are ex royals, why does anyone bother giving them attention. All these new threads do is perpetuate their relevance when they are a complete irrelevance |

Lying will never reflect well on their brand, it will follow them forever as it’s documented from their own mouths
