Back to the Old Gutter: Meghan’s Risky Move to Return to Hollywood Exposed

Meghan Markle, the former member of the royal family, has made a surprising appearance at a big Hollywood event, showcasing a bold move that we haven't seen from her in years.

Welcome back to the Kate Middleton and the Queen YouTube channel, where we bring you the latest news and updates.

While being a part of the royal family entails various responsibilities such as tree-planting and ribbon-cutting, walking the red carpet is also among the tasks expected from them.

Since 1946, when King George VI attended the premiere of “A Matter of Life and Death,” members of the royal family have regularly graced fancy opening nights to represent Britain and enjoy some complimentary popcorn.

However, Meghan Markle has recently demonstrated a departure from the traditional royal behavior.

Ever since she and Prince Harry relocated to Montecito, California, she has been quietly immersing herself in the Hollywood scene.

Reports suggest that she has acquired an A-list agent, Aria Manuel from WME, and has been establishing connections with A-list personalities like Cameron Diaz and Kris Jenner.

It seems that Meghan is determined to expand her network of influential contacts within the industry.

Over the weekend, Meghan attended Vanity's Power of Women event, where she continued to mingle with Hollywood elites.

But it was her actions on the red carpet, or rather, the navy carpet, that truly showcased her complete transformation from a palace-dwelling royal to a full-fledged Hollywood figure.

She followed the customary practice of pausing at different points on the red carpet to strike poses, engaging with reporters from Entertainment Tonight and Variety.

This marked a significant departure from her previous approaches to red carpet events.

In the past, whenever Meghan and Harry attended similar events, they either refrained from posing altogether, as seen during their appearance at the Intrepid Museum's annual Salute to Freedom Gala in 2021, or quickly posed front-on, as witnessed at the Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights Ripple of Hope Awards in 2022 and the Ms. Foundation Women of Vision Awards this year.

However, Meghan's recent behavior at the Variety Pose-a-thon indicates a drastic shift.

It is evident that she no longer aspires to be a royal, but rather, aims to establish herself as a Hollywood star.

Let's compare Meghan's actions with those of Prince William and Catherine.

At the BAFTA Awards earlier this year, Catherine playfully patted William on the bottom, and they hurried past the photographers as if concerned about securing good seats.

This pattern was also observed at the Top Gun Maverick premiere last year, where they refrained from any public displays of affection.

Additionally, they left their children in the care of their nanny, housekeeper, and staff to attend the No Time to Die premiere in September 2021, alongside King Charles and Queen Camilla.

The group briefly paused at the top of the steps before swiftly proceeding, without turning back.

Even at Catherine's own events, she typically avoids engaging with the media, exemplified by her recent Shaping Us National Symposium and the Together at Christmas Carol service at Westminster Abbey.

The underlying message in all of this is that they are royals who do not seek attention.

However, Meghan and Harry find themselves in a unique position, straddling the realms of royalty and celebrity.

They do not fully belong to either world.

Nevertheless, Meghan has made her choice clear, aligning herself firmly with the entertainment industry.

Her deliberate actions on the red carpet at the Variety event serve as a definitive signal of her allegiance.

She has abandoned any remnants of her palace identity and is fully committed to her Hollywood aspirations.

This recent red carpet incident is just one of many occurrences over the past few months that indicate Meghan's efforts to expand her network within Hollywood.

For instance, she attended a Beyoncé concert in the VIP section alongside notable figures such as Kris Jenner, Kim Kardashian, Jeff Bezos, Lauren Sanchez, and Ted Sarandos, the head of Netflix.

Reports also suggest that Meghan and Harry socialized with Marvel star Chris Evans and his wife, Alba Bautista, during their time in Portugal.

In early October, they attended Kevin Costner's charity party, where they mingled with Oprah Winfrey and Adam Levine from Maroon 5.

Moreover, during a Saturday night trip to Las Vegas in November, Meghan and Harry were accompanied by Cameron Diaz, Benji Madden, Whitney Wolf Hurd, and her husband Michael Hurd, an oil heir.

Harry was even photographed conversing with Wall Street billionaire and Republican donor Ken Griffin.

Their presence at these events not only indicated their desire to be seen but also highlighted their growing circle of influential acquaintances.

It begs the question: is this the life that Harry and Meghan envisioned all along?

Are they finally pursuing their original aspirations, or are their current endeavors driven by necessity?

As celebrities, they require careful cultivation and management, especially considering that their royal status has significantly diminished.

Perhaps they have no choice but to play the Hollywood game and pretend to enjoy such events.

However, we cannot overlook the role of Prince Harry in all of this.

Did he opt out of attending due to his aversion to Hollywood small talk, or might he make an appearance soon?

After all, love may not cost a thing, but electricity bills and private jet flights can be quite expensive.
