Royal commentator urges Harry and Meghan to pause ventures after box-office flop
Royal analyst Kinsey Schofield advises Prince Harry and Meghan Markle to step back from public projects following the poor performance of their documentary “Cookie Queens.”
According to royal commentator Kinsey Schofield, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle need to withdraw from the spotlight for a period after their documentary “Cookie Queens” earned only $735 per screen and opened at No. 15. Schofield recommended dramatically cutting public announcements and concentrating on one compelling project backed by experienced collaborators. She argued that their frequent references to the royal family are eroding credibility and that true reputation recovery will come from delivering undeniable success rather than another publicity push.
The analyst also suggested the duo let industry experts make key decisions and avoid treating their celebrity status as a product. Schofield noted that recent signs of reconciliation with King Charles may reflect an awareness that their strained royal ties have become a business liability. The couple recently appeared at a David Foster Foundation gala in Canada, where Meghan Markle wore Princess Diana’s diamond and sapphire earrings.
