Prince Harry will be a bald 50-year-old has-been – a bit-part ex-royal with NO money, expert says

AS Prince Harry and Meghan Markle lose their $100 million Netflix deal, royal experts say the future looks dire for the couple's prospects. Since departing from the royal family, the pair have had countless media contracts together and separately to share their life in California. 4 4 4 But Netflix insiders say none of the projects have performed well and future shows will let the five-year, $100million deal they inked with Meghan and Harry for 'With Love, Meghan, and a host of other shows quietly lapse when it is due for renewal in September. It was once seen as a secure form of income for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, but now experts say it's a sign that their time is running out. Speaking on The Sun's Royal Exclusive show, Robert Jobson said Prince Harry's popularity is dwindling as the public focus their attention on the younger royals, Prince William 's children, George, Charlotte and Louis. He said: "I think the show's moving on. When we're talking about when we were in New Zealand all those years ago, he was a big noise then. "The vibe was all positive about him. The vibe isn't positive about him now." Footage showed Prince Harry scold Rhiannon back in 2019 while he visited a health clinic in a remote village in Malawi as part of the Sussexes' African tour. As he walked past her, she asked 'oh, why is it so important for you to come here?' "And he looked at me and said 'oh, well just go and ask those people over there'. And I probably inside thought, hang on a minute, I'm not gonna leave this one," she revealed. "I said, well, is that why it's so important for you to come here? And then he turned around and just said, 'Rhiannon, don't behave like that'. 4 Harry & Meghan peace talks motive EXPOSED - they'll beg for handouts now Netflix deal's scrapped "And then got in his car and drove off. I felt like I'd looked like an idiot. "He looked really patronising. Nobody came out of it looking good." Robert added that the couple were trying to monetise on their celebrity status as they know other royals will soon take the limelight. "They're 40 year olds. They're not young royals," the royal expert explained. "They're different now. The vibe is different. The whole mood and shift will now go on to George, Charlotte, and Louis. And they will become really, frankly, bit part players. "Now they won't like that. And that's probably what this is all about, making sure they've got a presence, a brand to monetise, because pretty soon they're going to be really so far removed from the main game, they're not going to be able to get as much money out of being royals." The Times' royal correspondent Valentine Low wrote the book Courtiers: The Hidden Power Behind The Crown, and revealed Prince Harry feared he was becoming irrelevant. An insider told the author: "He had this thing that he had a shelf life. He was fixated [on] this. He would compare himself with his uncle [Prince Andrew]. 'He would say, 'I have this time to make this impact. Because I can,' until Prince George turned 18. Speaking on The Sun's royal show, Robert agreed, adding: "You know, he'll be a bald 50-year-old prince. Someone formerly known as Prince, that's what he will be." Once popular with the younger generation, Prince Harry will lose his spot to the future king, Prince George. "They'll be thinking, who is this guy? They won't even know who he is," Robert added. The Lifestyle and cookery show With Love, Meghan only ranked at number 383 in Netflix's six-monthly engagement report this year, with just 5.3million viewers across the globe. While Prince Harry's docuseries Polo, attracted a disastrous 500,000 views globally in the first six months of release. And it is not the Sussexes' first media deal that has gone south. Their reported $20million podcasting deal with Spotify was terminated in June 2023, with senior Spotify executive Bill Simmons labelling the duo 'f***ing grifters'. How Meghan and Harry are investing their Netflix millions HARRY and Meghan have begun investing their Netflix millions in a property portfolio. They have bought a new home in Portugal, around the corner from Harry's cousin Princess Eugenie and her husband. But the Sussexes, who have been spending an increasing amount of time apart, do not plan to live in their new pad, The Sun understands. It is not known if the property will be rented out, used for Airbnb-style holiday lets or used purely to park money. But it is seen as the first step of putting earnings from their TV and book deals into a global property empire. 'They're being smart with their money,' a source said. They pocketed £75million from streaming giant Netflix where they laid into fellow royals in a six-part series. Meanwhile Harry, who got a £15million advance for his autobiography Spare, also inherited £8million from the late Queen Mother after turning 40 in September. Palace insiders have been concerned about what will happen when the Sussexes run out of cash. They have huge overheads, forking out a fortune on security in the US and for when Harry visits the UK. And they are still paying a mortgage on the £11million Montecito mansion they bought after quitting as working royals in 2020. Insiders say the Portugal home will be part of a financial portfolio which will include more real estate.

1000lb Sisters star Tammy Slaton's new shrinking body on full display in shocking home video after 500lb loss

Tammy Slaton left fans stunned yet again—less than 24 hours after they did a double take over her jaw-dropping weight loss transformation. The 38-year-old 1000-Lb. Sisters star, who underwent bariatric surgery in 2022 followed by extensive skin removal procedures, gave a closer look at her shrinking frame in a brand new TikTok video on Wednesday. Lip-syncing and dancing to a viral meme about self-worth, Tammy showcased dramatically slimmed-down figure in a bright pink tee tucked into blue jeans. Fans were blown away by the full-body view of the TLC star, whose smooth moves showcased her 500-pound weight loss and freedom from the wheelchair and oxygen tank she once needed. 'Girl— you keep living your best life!! So happy for you and proud of you!!' one fan gushed, as another added, 'TAMMY!!! Such a queen!' Tammy captioned the video with a powerful affirmation: 'Forget about depression. Forget about stressing out and start counting your blessings you're amazing the way you are never forget that.' She was also adorably self-deprecating, admitting, 'I absolutely love this song and I know I can't dance — I'm just trying to have fun.' The TikTok comes just days after Tammy gave fans a full-body glimpse of her transformation by posting a photo of herself in a form-fitting black shapewear one-piece. With her hands behind her back and a subtle smile, Tammy looked like a completely different person — and fans couldn't believe their eyes. Captioned 'I knew the assignment,' the post made it clear she's not only owning her transformation, but thriving in it. 'Absolutely loving this era of Tammy,' one fan gushed, while another wrote, 'Brought a tear to my eye. It's been honestly so inspiring and amazing to watch your journey.' Tammy's weight loss journey has been front and center on 1000-Lb. Sisters, and in April, she shared her proudest milestone yet: a loss of 500 pounds. 'When I was at my heaviest, I was 700-plus pounds,' she shared on the TLC series. 'Right now, I'm weighing in at 238.' Tammy even compared her progress to that of her sister, 37-year-old Amy Slaton, who's lost 176 pounds. 'Everyone is telling me I look smaller than Amy,' she said. 'That's kind of hard to believe. I can't believe I did that.' Following her massive weight loss, Tammy revealed in June that she had finally gone under the knife for long-awaited skin removal surgery earlier this year. 'I was just overwhelmed with excitement,' she told People, recalling the moment she was approved. 'I worked really hard for this, and now it's here. I'm pretty sure it was noticeable on my face how immediately shocked and then overwhelmed with joy I was.' Tammy spent over a year—14 months total—at Windsor Lane Rehabilitation Center in Gibsonburg, Ohio, where she dropped more than 400 pounds thanks to intensive treatment and bariatric surgery. It was during her time there that she met Caleb Willingham, who would become her husband. Known affectionately as 'Double K,' Caleb joined Tammy on 1000-Lb. Sisters as the pair worked side by side to tackle their struggles with obesity. They eventually exchanged vows in an intimate ceremony with roughly 30 attendees, with their home care nurse stepping in to officiate. Sadly, their newlywed bliss was short-lived. Caleb passed away just months later at the age of 40 and a cause of death was never publicly disclosed. Tammy had previously addressed the state of their relationship before his death during an earlier season of the show, revealing that things had shifted between them. She said they had begun to 'feel like roommates.'

ESPN anchor unapologetic for her crass penis joke live on air at WNBA All-Star weekend

ESPN's Elle Duncan isn't backing down or apologizing for the suggestive joke she made during the WNBA All-Star Game last weekend. Duncan was on the desk at halftime of the contest, with the score at 80-62 highlighting the severe lack of defense. So Duncan decided to crack a lighthearted joke: 'We hope it gets a little bit more competitive, because like a girls trip to Cancun, right now, there's no D.' It's a funny joke, if not a slightly blue one, and it's in line with others have made on ESPN's airwaves in the past (just ask anyone who's seen Diana Taurasi broadcast a South Carolina women's basketball game). But this joke got more attention - and scrutiny - than others as a new wave of WNBA fans didn't find the humor in Duncan's remark. Appearing on The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz on Thursday, Duncan addressed the criticism while also appearing completely unwilling to apologize. 'My thing with the Cancun joke is, I feel like whenever I say something, it's like sometimes a reintroduction for some people who clearly don't know me or my work over the last 10 years,' Duncan said. 'I'm like, 'bro, I said on air one time that if you celebrate too early, it's called premature I'm-Jacked-Elation.' Like I can't actually imagine this is worse than that. 'Like I feel like I constantly have to remind people, I have been saying things like this for the 10 years I have been at ESPN. 'So I thought it was silly. I thought it was funny. Some people disagree. Some people definitely agree. But it is what it is. Like, yes, girls say crude jokes too.' Many of the comments addressed that there were children watching the occasion. Duncan doesn't appear too pressed about that either. 'The funny part to me, y'all, has been the people who are like, "what am I supposed to say to my children?"' Duncan continued. 'I'm like, "well if you have to talk to your children about the fact that 'D' is a slang word for a penis, then I hope that I was able to help you have that conversation with your child who's old enough to watch basketball." Because my 4-year-old knows what a penis is. 'It's so silly to me. The idea that like this is groundbreaking or somehow completely inappropriate in the landscape that we live in right now is just wild to me. I was a little blown, to be real.'
