Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle are reportedly “tracking down the Hollywood enemy who sabotaged them”.
According to the Mirror, not making the Primetime Emmy Awards shortlist earlier this month has “likely left them devastated”.
And that’s because, reports reckon, the Sussexes may have had hopes of a gong for their Netflix docuseries.
Harry and Meghan news
The Mirror’s website quotes Heat magazine as suggesting the Emmys snub was “stinging” for the couple.
It is claimed Harry and Meghan wish to track down the people in Hollywood who organised “a hate campaign” against them, with the implication it prevented them from being shortlisted.
An insider is quoted as telling Heat recently: “The fact that they didn’t get an Emmy nod is a huge kick in the teeth.”
‘An orchestrated hate campaign against them’
The unnamed source reportedly continued: “They’re convinced there’s been an orchestrated hate campaign against them on both sides of the Atlantic, and that certain people are trying to get in on the act of picking on them and scoring brownie points with the British royals.”
It makes them sick and they’re looking to weed out these people one by one.
The source is said to have added: “It makes them sick and they’re looking to weed out these people one by one.”
It is also reported Harry and Meghan wish to conduct a thorough investigation into “who put the boot in”.
