Meghan, Harry underestimated how low in Hollywood 'pecking order' they'd be: ex-pal
[NYPOST] Prince Harry
...That guy who married Meghan Markle. You know. The ones that didn't get invited to Michelle Obama's party?...
and Princess Meghan Markle
...unlikable American former starlet married to the formerly likable Prince Harry. Chock full of lefty political opinions and not many brains, Markle's most important characteristic is that she is Black, even though she doesn't look it. Her mother, y'see, is half black and her father is white, which would make her a quarter Black. Once married, she was too classy for the Royals and she and Harry decamped to Beverly Hills, kind of like the Clampetts did, because she was so much classier than the Winsdors....
were ill prepared for just how low down the Hollywood "pecking order" they’d be, according to a former friend of the actress.

TV presenter Nick Ede, who says his friendship with the former "Suits" star started years before she had her sights set on the palace, claims that the pair didn’t realize they wouldn’t be known as "Hollywood royalty" when they moved across the pond to Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party,.

"I think they came in and thought that the number one people on the block and they’re not really," Ede, who says he lost contact with Markle when she started dating the Duke of Sussex, told the Express.

"They’re kind of quite far down really in that pecking order. And I think that’s been an issue with them, in that sense of stepping down."

Ede, 49, claims the royals don’t carry the same prestige in Hollywood as other stars like the Kardashians, for example.

"I think the thing is that you forget that in Hollywood, royalty isn’t somebody with a title," he explained. "It’s J.Lo, it’s Sharon Stone, it’s Beyoncé, it’s the Kardashians. That’s their royalty."
