Meghan & Harry: 'Cookie Queens' Film Reception, Public Image, and Surrogacy Talk

"Cookie Queens" Film at Sundance

• 🎬 Meghan Markle and Prince Harry attended the Sundance Film Festival to promote their film "Cookie Queens," which focuses on Girl Scouts.
• 📉 The film's screening was described as a "misfire" and a flop, with nearly 150 empty seats, even among VIP passholders.
• 💡 Meghan's involvement was primarily as an executive producer, using the red carpet as an opportunity to discuss her past as a Girl Scout and her entrepreneurial spirit.

Public Image and Hypocrisy

• 🎭 Prince Harry's appearance at Sundance for publicity contrasted sharply with his recent emotional court testimony about privacy.
• 📸 This behavior was labeled as hypocrisy, especially given past statements about camera clicks causing PTSD.

Prince Harry's Current Role

• 👨‍🍼 Reports suggest Harry is content as a stay-at-home dad, handling childcare and errands, while Meghan is seen as the primary breadwinner.
• 🗣️ He is described as more personable and friendlier than Meghan when interacting with people in Montecito.
• 🚀 There's ongoing debate about Harry potentially starting a business, but his current activities are seen as unfocused.

Financial Stability Concerns

• 💰 The Sussexes are reportedly facing depleting coffers due to significant expenses, including $2-3 million annually for security.
• ⚠️ They are also believed to be the major investors in Meghan's "Archewell" products, raising concerns about financial viability.

Surrogacy Rumors Dismissed

• 🚫 Speculation about Meghan having another child via surrogacy was largely dismissed as unlikely by the speakers.
• 👶 Reasons cited include Meghan's age (44, considered "geriatric pregnancy") and the potential issue of a surrogate child not being in the line of succession.
