In a stunning turn of events, Golden Globes host Cedric Kyles has announced the disqualification of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s Netflix documentary from all nomination categories. The news has sent shockwaves through Hollywood and the royal family, with many speculating about Meg’s reaction to the unexpected snub.
According to sources close to the couple, Meg was left “devastated and heartbroken” by the decision. She had reportedly poured her heart and soul into the documentary, which was seen as a chance to share her side of the story after their controversial departure from the royal family.
“Meg was hoping that the film would be well-received and that it would help mend some of the bridges that have been burned over the past few years,” said a source. “She’s incredibly disappointed that it won’t even have the chance to be considered for an award.”
Kyles, who is known for his sharp wit and no-nonsense attitude, did not mince words when explaining his decision to disqualify the film.
“The Golden Globes are about celebrating excellence in film and television,” he said. “This documentary, while I’m sure it’s well-made, does not meet the standards of our organization. It’s simply not up to snuff.”
Kyles’s comments have sparked a fierce debate online, with some defending his decision and others accusing him of being biased against the Sussexes.
“This is nothing more than a cheap shot at Harry and Meg,” said one Twitter user. “Cedric Kyles is just trying to stay in the good graces of the royal family.”
“I actually think Kyles has a point,” said another. “The Sussexes have made a lot of money off of their royal titles, and I don’t think it’s fair that they’re now trying to use them to win awards.”
It remains to be seen whether the Sussexes will appeal Kyle’s decision. However, one thing is for sure: this latest development is sure to add another layer of drama to their already tumultuous relationship with the royal family.
In addition to the emotional toll, the snub is likely to have a financial impact on the Sussexes as well. The Golden Globes are one of the most prestigious awards shows in the world, and a nomination can often lead to a significant increase in viewership and revenue. Without a nomination, the Sussexes’ Netflix documentary is likely to fly under the radar, potentially damaging their brand in the process.
Only time will tell what the long-term consequences of this snub will be. However, one thing is for sure: it’s a blow to the Sussexes’ hopes of rebuilding their public image.
