HOLLYWOOD’S NOT WILD ABOUT HARRY

Sussexes squirm as they go from royal to rubbish heap

-

PANICKED Prince Harry’s dream move to America with wife Meghan has become a real-life nightmare — because he went from being the toast of England to the bottom of the Hollywood social circuit, sources snitch.

“Harry was so excited to move to California and assumed he’d be dining at the top table with all the big players,” an insider squeals.

“In London, he only needed to click his fingers and people would line up to invite him to their upscale bashes. But that’s just not happened for him and Meghan — and that’s a real kick in the teeth.”

As GLOBE reported, the royal renegades ditched palace duties in 2020 to chase fame and fortune in Meghan’s old Tinseltown haunts. But sources spill as the Duke and Duchess of Sussex struggle with the toxic fallout from their split with 38-yearold Harry’s blueblood kin, they’ve been snubbed by showbiz elite — and have seen themselves sink to C-list territory!

A mole dishes, “It’s hitting home hard that the oldschool types aren’t willing to let them into their circles. So, hangouts with the likes of Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks aren’t in the cards — in the same way they've been blanked by Beyoncé and A-listers like Julia Roberts, Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt. For Harry, it’s all so lame!”

Sources whisper former Suits starlet Meghan, 41, is desperate to pump up their standing by interviewi­ng celebs on her podcast Archetypes — but she was recently reduced to hosting hotel heirhead Paris Hilton!

And that backfired big-time when she triggered Bimbogate by complainin­g about being treated as a sex object during her stint as a briefcase model on the game show Deal or No Deal — but admitted lumping Hilton into the same category!

Meghan apologized but caught fire anyway from

A-listers including Whoopi Goldberg, who insists Harry’s wife didn’t recognize the game show was just another acting gig, not a reflection of her personal worth.

But now there’s another firestorm brewing.

Spies say the pair — who are attempting to tone down their upcoming Netflix docuseries about royal life to minimize the bad blood with Britain’s ruling family — have also been spending much less time with Santa Barbara neighbors Orlando Bloom, Katy Perry, Katharine McPhee and David Foster. As Harry and Meghan scurry to shore up their connection­s, sources say they’re eyeing other options and are slated to attend a Dec. 6 charity gala with beleaguere­d outcast actor Alec Baldwin, who killed Rust cinematogr­apher Halyna Hutchins in a 2021 set shooting.

An insider adds, “Harry hates how they’ve gone from hobnobbing with the Obamas and the Clooneys to planning powwows with Baldwin and Hilton — and while he means no offense to these celebritie­s, it’s just all getting a little desperate.

“The big A-listers are seeing the Sussexes as reality TVtype fodder now, and it’s got Harry rattled and red-faced. He wants Meghan to think big — but of course it’s her way or the highway, so communicat­ion is awkward.

“Harry’s learned the harsh truth — he made his bed and now has to lie in it!”
