A brand-new Hollywood scandal has erupted — and this time it’s the Kardashians vs. the Sussexes.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle attended Kris Jenner’s spectacular James-Bond-themed 70th birthday party at the Beverly Hills home of Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez. Photos were taken. Smiles were exchanged. The Sussexes were spotted chatting amongst the A-list.
And then… something extraordinary happened.
Kim Kardashian and Kris Jenner deleted the photos of Harry and Meghan from their Instagram birthday posts — after they had already been uploaded.
Why?
Hollywood insiders say the couple had ticked a “no distribution” box on the party’s photo-consent form, sparking a flurry of phone calls and forcing Kim to remove the pictures. Other reports say Kim was baffled and furious, feeling she’d been put in an embarrassing position. Another source claims Meghan wanted tight control of the imagery, fearing the optics of the timing so close to Remembrance events in the UK.
Whatever the truth, the symbolism is powerful: being edited out of a Kardashian photo drop is not a small thing.
In today’s episode, we dig into the real reasons the Sussexes’ images vanished, the culture clash between Kardashian-level celebrity and royal-adjacent PR management, and why this moment is being described by insiders as a “wake-up call” for Harry and Meghan’s Hollywood brand.
Was this a simple misunderstanding about consent forms? A power play? An image-control crisis? Or the first sign that the Kardashians want distance from the royal renegades?
Join me for a full breakdown — the facts, the motives, the insider reports, and what this tells us about where Harry and Meghan really stand in the entertainment hierarchy.
