Several analysts feel the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have gone too far in exploiting their royal titles, and there is “zero chance” of the couple regaining the king’s favor. While Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are “capitalizing on the Sussex name,” it is reported that even if Harry asked forgiveness from his father, “the best he could hope for would be crumbs from the royal table.”Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been developing an empire since they were cut off from cash after leaving their royal duties.

The Sussexes, who raise their two children, Archie and Lilibet, in Santa Barbara, California, inked a multi-year contract with Netflix and an agreement with Spotify through Archewell Audio. Doug Eldridge, celebrity branding specialist and head of Achilles PR, tells Fox News Digital that Harry and Meghan’s independent success is based on leveraging their royal status in commercial deals.

“If recent history is any indication, they’re not just likely to do so; their success is almost dependent on them doing so,” Eldridge says of the couple’s benefit from the royal brand. Before their separation from the royal family, Harry and Meghan had vastly different paths and levels of global renown. Everything they’ve done after [their royal exit] has been based on their royal connections. According to Hilary Fordwich, a royal expert, when the couple left the family, “they didn’t realize that the success of any service or product was determined by the power of its unique selling point (USP).”

Fordwich asks, “If it weren’t for his family, what would Harry’s unique selling point be? Furthermore, all affection, respect, notoriety, social acceptance, and demand bestowed upon any member of the royal family is predicated on their hereditary dignity and position. “He wanted neither but all of the former?”
