Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have almost become synonymous with controversies, and whether they’re the ones stirring it up or not, you can bet that it’s helped them strike a few deals.
But with their Spotify deal cancelled and Netflix deal almost over – insiders claim there’s no interest to renew it on either side – where will the Sussexes go from here?
Some think branding themselves as an alternate Royal Family might be an interesting direction for the couple, but, unless they can monetize their appearances, that idea may not really take off.
Perhaps that’s why Meghan Markle is invested in building her lifestyle brand American Riviera Orchard.

Cynthia McFadden, the TV-news veteran whose career has taken her from co-anchoring ABC News’ “Nightline” to a senior perch on NBC News’ investigations team, is stepping away from broadcast journalism.
“It is hard to leave a job you love but this is the right time — I have a list of things I have often said I wanted to do ‘someday’. Well, someday is now, while I am still raring to go — and playing with a relatively full deck,” McFadden said in a note to colleagues Friday. Maybe I’ll even surprise you (and myself!)”
Her work at NBC News has taken the veteran correspondent to Central Africa to report on a humanitarian crisis to Camp Lejeune, where she probed why veteran U.S. Marines and wives and daughters stationed at the North Carolina training facility lost babies after being exposed to toxic water. A one-hour special report on that topic appeared...

CNN aims to return to the recipe that gave its viewers explorers of international cuisine such as Anthony Bourdain and Stanley Tucci.
After announcing in October of 2022 that the Warner Bros. Discovery-backed outlet would pull back on the efforts that made it a name in original documentary series and films — ostensibly to cut costs at a time when its corporate parent was grappling with significant debt — CNN wants to get back into the business of developing original non-fiction series and movies.
“I think we are very much in the rebuild phase,” Amy Entelis, executive vice president for talent and content, tells Variety during a recent interview.
Mark Thompson, named in August to oversee CNN following a tumultuous run under predecessor Chris Licht, has articulated a strategy of building out new areas and verticals that can help the company win more customers and viewers. Original series would seem to be one of them.

Meghan Markle is busy working hard behind-the-scenes to make her new brand American Riviera Orchard the best and biggest it can be.
However, a brand strategist believes there could be challenges to its success despite Meghan hoping to support it with a show on Netflix.
Meghan Markle Faces Tough Decision On Whether To Make Brand Expensive or Accessible
According to brand expert Lucie Green, Meghan could choose to lean into her royal connections to make the brand high-end.
The downsides to this is that she is sure to be faced with criticisms every time she does this, so for now, we’ve got Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex as the name she legally went with when launching the brand.
How much she could lean into the royal side down the line is something we can’t yet see.

Is there a rule book for comedy? It’s a question igniting fiery debates, especially in today’s era of “cancel culture” dictating the dos and don’ts of stand-up. But for Tony Hinchcliffe, the idea of conforming to these restrictions is as likely as finding a unicorn at a rodeo.
“There’s no room for victim mentality here,” Hinchcliffe tells Variety. “When you step into a dark, dingy comedy club, what do you want to see? Think about it like a strip club. Do you want to see girls in a dress? Or do you want to see nasty fucking shit? You want ping-pong balls flying at your head.”
Hinchcliffe sits back in a golden chair for his Zoom interview, rocking a plain white T-shirt and basketball shorts, reminiscing about his days as the class clown. He was born and raised on the rough and tumble streets of Youngstown,...

Founder of the Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia, she rose to prominence after excelling in the segment of lifestyle products in the ’70s and has been synonymous with everything domestic since.
Now, with the Duchess of Sussex set to step into the lifestyle business with her brand American Riviera Orchard, reasonably, Meghan Markle is now being compared to Stewart. But apparently, the TV personality isn’t too enthralled by the matter.

British royal family news reveals that Meghan Markle has sent 50 lucky people a jar of strawberry jam in an effort to rebrand herself as a domestic doyenne like Gwyneth Paltrow and Martha Stewart.
The product is the first offering from American Riviera Orchard and was sent to influencers and friends. So far only three people whose names you’ve never heard before have admitted on social media to being one of Meghan’s giftees.
Royal Family News: Meghan is Selling Jam
PR expert Mark Borkowski is not impressed with the launch: “It’s either hubris or else very weird strategy. What’s in it? What does it taste like? There’s no story there, nothing on the back, just a label – and even that looks like it’s peeling off.” Stay classy Meghan.
Meghan is a latecomer to the jam game, as decades ago her father-in-law King Charles sold jam from the Duchy of Cornwall.

QVC is bowing to the prevailing demographic trends with the launch of a massive business and programming initiative targeted women over the age of 50.
The home shopping stalwart steered is introducing “The Age of Possibility” marketing and programming campaign highlighting female celebrities and leaders age 50 and over who are demonstrating the third act that modern women are experiencing.
The list includes such boldface names as Martha Stewart, Queen Latifah, Naomi Watts, Christina Applegate, Billie Jean King, Patti Labelle and Sherri Shepherd and prominent executives such as Dentsu’s Diane Epstein and Liberty Media’s Renee Wilm. John Malone’s Liberty investment group owns QVC through its Qurate home shopping media unit.
QVC’s whole-hearted embrace of women who are edging outside of the 18-49 and 25-54 demographics, the two primary targets for primetime network TV in the U.S. for the past 40-plus years, comes amid a growing Gen-x population bubble among this age group.

However, royal reporter Kinsey Schofield had a less-than-positive response to the news. She shared her thoughts in commentary on Talk TV.
“I want to stress this is a PR push for Meghan,” she begins. “I think people really dislike Meghan Markle, and it must absolutely destroy her; otherwise, she wouldn’t be fighting so hard to be relevant.

Celebrities and influencers could help Meghan Markle make American Riviera Orchard, her new lifestyle brand, a big success. An entertainment expert says the Duchess of Sussex, 42, could even see some of her products “go viral and sell out” because of it. Spoiler: Meghan’s done something similar before.
Getting celebrities and influencers involved will make American Riviera Orchard financially ‘worthwhile’ for Meghan
Meghan hasn’t officially launched — or even formally unveiled — any American Riviera Orchard products she plans to make available, but when the items do go public, she’d be wise to turn to celebrities and influencers, Mark Boardman, an entertainment expert, told Newsweek.
“The trademarked brand could see runaway success with items that consumers believe that Meghan uses,” the MarkMeets founder said. “From a PR perspective, I believe that sending out items to celebrities and influencers could make the brand go viral and sell out some lines, thus...

Bethesda Softworks launched Fallout 76 in 2018. Introduced as the franchise’s first foray into online shared worlds, with a focus on reclaiming a ruined Appalachia with more problems than just radiation, the response from fans was controversial. It was not moddable, and its buy-once-play-forever servers remain supported by a cosmetics shop and optional monthly sub similar to The Elder Scrolls Online. Driven by caution and curiosity, Fallout fans nonetheless picked at the new game and came up with an equally leery response.
While it was definitely a Fallout game, with eerie environmental storytelling about an empty world left behind after the bombs dropped (complete with janky code and screwy pre-order bonus controversies), the game tried its best to play on bad assumptions about humanity’s natural behaviors. It encouraged Pvp, from workshop battlegrounds to tense encounters in the wild. Though you could group up for bonuses, it felt… weird to run into others.

Beyond the vast windows of Palm Beach’s iconic Breakers resort, the ocean sparkled as women in designer florals paraded under the lobby’s vaulted, hand-frescoed ceilings. They were headed to network with Martha Stewart and Tommy Hilfiger and swap Hermès and Gucci purses for charity at a $600-per-ticket “Old Bags” luncheon.
Later, many of them joined the daily flock gathered poolside at the historic Colony Hotel, sipping cocktails served by young men in pink shirts. Apart from the rose-hued hotel’s interior update, including a new Goop-designed bungalow, similar scenes could have unfolded a half-century earlier — which is why the new Apple TV+ show Palm Royale, set in 1969, doesn’t seem very dated. The characters played by Kristen Wiig, Laura Dern and Allison Janney could have easily mingled among this crowd, and when the show incorporated shots of The Breakers, the only thing they had to adjust for historical accuracy was the cars.

When it comes to psychological horror films, few have achieved the chilling impact and critical acclaim of Anthony Hopkins‘ The Silence of the Lambs. With its gripping narrative and spine-tingling atmosphere, the film has rightfully earned its place among the greatest in cinematic history, earning five Oscars and widespread acclaim.

Yet, amidst the crowd of horror classics, there exists a film that goes beyond mere scares, into the realm of controversy and legal turmoil that few filmmakers dare to tread. Released in 1980, Ruggero Deodato’s Cannibal Holocaust seemed too realistic and authentic when it came to the gory scenes that the filmmaker would end up being arrested and charged with murder.

Who will be the first Golden Bachelorette is a question that’s on everyone’s mind.

Golden Bachelorette fans did a poll to see which of Gerry Turner’s Golden Bachelor contestants they wanted to see as the lead. Actually, the results might shock you a bit. While the show’s been given the go-ahead, the name of the lead hasn’t been revealed. So, it might not be one of the cast members from The Golden Bachelor.
Jesse Palmer Had Ideas On The Golden Bachelorette Lead
Bachelor Nation host Jesse Palmer felt that the lead for the new spinoff should come from Golden Bachelor contestants. While he thought that any of the women from the Askn group would work, he only mentioned Leslie Fhima as a second thought. Remember, she came in second place after Theresa Nist. However, not everyone is wild about Askn’s April Kirkwood, Susan Noles, Kathy Swarts, and Nancy Hulkower.

James and Jane Ginsburg, the children of late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, responded negatively to Elon Musk and Rupert Murdoch receiving the 2024 Rbg Leadership Award.
In addition to Musk and Murdoch, Martha Stewart, financier and convicted felon Mike Milken and Sylvester Stallone were the recipients of this award.
This invitation-only celebration at the Library of Congress on April 13 had been organized to bestow the Award on the tech, media, finance, food and film leaders.
“The original purpose of the award was – I have it right here – ‘to recognize an extraordinary woman who has exercised a positive and notable influence on society and served as an exemplary role model in both principles and practice,'” James told CNN.
“And whether you want to discuss the wisdom of opening up that to men or not is one thing,” he continued. “But I think you would be hard-pressed to apply that...

The family of former Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg is calling out an organization which had been entrusted to hand out a yearly award in her name.
Last week, the Dwight D. Opperman Foundation announced that Elon Musk, Rupert Murdoch, Martha Stewart, Michael Milken and Sylvester Stallone would be the 2024 recipients of the Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg Leadership Award which, until this year, was called the Ruth Bader Ginsburg Woman of Leadership Award and dedicated to “women of distinction.”
This year, however, the foundation announced it was refocusing the award on honoring “both women and men who have changed the world by doing what they do best.” Unfortunately, it seems someone forgot to tell the Ginsburg family.
The family’s statement, released to Mother Jones, reads as follows:

Elon Musk, Rupert Murdoch and three other individuals will no longer receive Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s namesake leadership award, presenting organization Opperman Foundation announced late Monday.
The awards’ cancellation came hours after singer and former Rbg award recipient Barbra Streisand slammed the decision to honor Musk and Murdoch, and several days after the late justice’s daughter spoke out against the award as well.
“The last thing we intended was to offend the family and friends of Rbg,” said Julie Opperman, chair of the Opperman Foundation, in a statement.
Earlier Monday, Streisand wrote on Instagram that she was joining “the Ginsburg family in condemning the choice of honorees this year. I had the privilege of meeting Justice Ginsburg on several occasions, and I strongly doubt she would approve of these awardees.”
First presented in 2020, the Opperman Foundation changed the title of the Rbg honors from the Women of Leadership Award...

Barbra Streisand joined the family of Ruth Bader Ginsburg on Monday in condemning the choice of a leadership award previously named after the late Supreme Court justice going to Elon Musk and Rupert Murdoch, among others.
Streisand, who accepted the honor formerly known as the Ruth Bader Ginsburg Woman of Leadership Award last year, wrote on Instagram she was “proud” to have done so “in memory of one of the most esteemed public figures in American history.”
The Dwight D. Opperman Foundation, the organization which delivers the award, changed the title this year from the Women of Leadership Award to just the Leadership Award, citing a pursuit of gender equality, and four of the five recipients are men.

Beyoncé sent her fans a shocker on Super Bowl Sunday, using a Verizon ad to announce “Renaissance Act II” and drop two brand-new country songs. But members of the BeyHive with a penchant for half-hour comedies got a two-for-one deal, as the pop star appeared in the commercial opposite an unexpected partner: “Veep” and “Arrested Development” star Tony Hale.
