Harry and Meghan’s new Hollywood move shows how self-centered they are

nypost.com:

acquired the film rights to the New York Times bestselling novel “Meet Me at the Lake,” by Carley Fortune, which cost a cool $3 million.They’ll be developing it for Netflix who, back in 2020, inked the couple to a multi-year $100 million deal.

Is this pivot from focusing on themselves into fiction some sort of redemption? We all knew the juice had been squeezed out of the lemon after “Spare,” the gag-inducing “Harry & Meghan” docu-series and a failed $20 million “Spotify” deal — in which they failed to produce anything beyond Meghan’s podcast ode to her personal grievances, with bonus celebrity guests.Could this new move be proof that Harry and Meghan, who are in a rebrand effort under the hand of WME honcho Ari Emmanuel, are finally turning the corner after their high-priced, high-ego failures to launch?

Hardly. It simply underscores their narcissism.Choosing this romantic novel, which mirrors a fair amount of their own biographies, is yet another sign of the couple’s self-centered and boring devotion to the themes that keep them atop the throne of victimhood.According to Deadline, the book’s plot points include “childhood trauma, including losing a parent in a car crash” — shades of tragic Princess Diana — as well as “mental health challenges and post-natal depression.” The story, which is about two 30somethings falling in love, also has a broken friendship (hello, Jessica Mulroney, whoMarkle reportedly dumped “to look woke“) and takes place in and around Toronto, where Markle’s old TV show “Suits” was filmed.Sounds eerily familiar.

The only thing missing is a fight with a sister-in-law over flower girl dresses and a sit down with a talk-show host named Moprah Minfrey.This choice shows the Sussexes’ keen inability to.
