Hollywood A-list star Ryan Reynolds has once again caused a stir, but this time, it’s Meghan Markle who’s in the firing line. In a lighthearted exchange with talk show host Conan O’Brien, Reynolds jokingly poked fun at the Duchess of Sussex and her “tiny jams” business, leaving Meghan in an uncomfortable spotlight.
During his appearance on Conan, Reynolds shared a humorous anecdote about his father’s past as a “middleman for jars of jam,” before quipping about Markle’s business. He said, “Tiny jams. Harvestable jams. Made from the oils of Montecito,” while riffing on the business that Meghan and Prince Harry have promoted. To further drive the point home, Reynolds joked, “If Jimbo Reynolds wasn’t dead, I’d say he is Meghan Markle. Well adjacent. Many people have likened the two.”
A Sting for Meghan Markle
For Meghan, this public mockery by one of Hollywood’s biggest stars is a significant blow. Despite her efforts to integrate into Hollywood circles, she’s now facing ridicule, especially as she has worked hard to align herself with A-list celebrities in recent years. Ryan Reynolds’ comments, though lighthearted, could further fuel the ongoing negative narrative surrounding her in the entertainment world.
Hollywood’s Growing Distance from Meghan Markle
Reynolds’ mocking remarks are just one piece of a larger puzzle, as several prominent figures in Hollywood have distanced themselves from Meghan and her husband Prince Harry. A number of celebrities, including Meghan’s former friends Oprah Winfrey and Gayle King, have been keeping a low profile, avoiding public support for the couple. While the causes behind these actions are varied, insiders suggest that the ongoing royal feud between Harry, Meghan, and the British royal family is a significant factor in Hollywood’s hesitation to embrace them fully.
Meghan’s Struggles in the Spotlight
Though Meghan has yet to respond to Reynolds’ comments, it’s clear that her journey in Hollywood remains complicated. As she navigates her career in a new chapter, the backlash and the ongoing media storms around her and her family make it even harder to gain the support of Hollywood’s elite. It seems that no matter how much she tries, the weight of the royal controversies continues to overshadow her efforts in the entertainment industry.
The Latest on the Royal Family
While the world watches as Meghan Markle and Prince Harry navigate their personal and public lives, the tension surrounding them seems to grow. Stay tuned for more updates on everything related to the royal family and their ongoing journey in the spotlight.
