Prince Harry and Meghan Markle share the same goal of making it in Hollywood after they decided to quit as full-time working royals and moved to Los Angeles
Prince Harry and Markle flew to California after carrying out their final royal engagement in March. Now that the royals are already in Tinseltown, they are working hard to thrive with the new opportunities coming their way. In fact, the duke will be appearing in documentaries as a spokesperson, according to an insider.
"Harry’s determined to make it in Hollywood, just as much as Meghan," the source told Us Weekly.
"He’s focusing on making documentaries connected to good causes — not just on the production side of things. We’ll also be seeing him in front of the camera, more as a spokesperson than anything else."
Prince Harry "always had a creative streak," the source continued before adding that Markle has "inspired him to take it to the next level."
"Working in the entertainment industry isn’t something he particularly thought about doing as royal, but since separating from the royals, he now has the opportunity to explore new, exciting opportunities and can’t wait to get his upcoming projects off the ground," the tipster said.
The Duke of Sussex was featured in Netflix's "Rising Phoenix," a documentary about the Paralympic Games.
"There isn't anything else in the world that can bring you back from the darkest places than sport," Prince Harry said in the trailer.
"Yes, lives have been changed on the track, but lives are also being changed in the stands."
Prince Harry’s involvement in the documentary isn’t surprising because the royal is the patron of Invictus Games, a Paralympic-style competition for the injured veterans.
This year, the competition was due to take place in The Hague in the Netherlands in May. However, they decided to cancel it due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
"This was an incredibly difficult decision for all of us to have to make," Prince Harry said in a video explaining their decision to delay the annual sports event.
"And I’m so grateful for everybody that’s worked so hard over the past couple of weeks to try to find any alternative to try and carry on these Games in a different way — in a safe way. But this decision was the most sensible and the safest option for all of you — for your families and everybody else — involved in these Games.”
In related news, Prince Harry and Markle just purchased a $14 million mansion in Montecito. The couple took out mortgage and didn't ask Prince Charles' help for the estate, which royal correspondent Omid Scobie said would be their “forever home.”
