“RENT-A-DUKE & DUCHESS — ROYALTY WITH A PRICE TAG,”

Rent-A-Duke & Duchess: Harry And Meghan Selling Themselves For $100,000 A Plate

Welcome To The Late-Stage Capitalism Chapter Of The Sussex Saga — Where Prince Harry And Meghan Markle Are No Longer Selling Podcasts, Netflix Promises, Or Beige Lifestyle Fantasies… They’re Selling Themselves.

For The Price Of $100,000 A Plate, You Too Can Sit Across A Dinner Table And Listen To Two People Explain — At Length — How Victimhood Is A Full-Time Career. According To The Daily Mail, The Duke And Duchess Of Perpetual Grievance Have Quietly Been Auctioning Access To Their Presence Through Charity Circuits, Nestled Comfortably Beside Actual A-List Legends Like Beyoncé, George Clooney, And Paul McCartney. Scroll That List Carefully — Because One Of These Things Is Very Clearly Not Like The Others.

The Official Justification? Charity.
More Specifically: Archewell — A Delaware-Registered “Charity,” Which In Corporate Translation Means Trust Us, Bro. Technically, Only About 5% Of The Money Raised Is Required To Go To Actual Charitable Causes. The Other 95%? That Can Be Comfortably Absorbed By “Expenses”: Private Jets, Security Teams, PR Consultants, Stylists, Photographers, Assistants For The Assistants — And Meghan’s Endless Quest To Look “Effortlessly Relatable” While Draped In $20,000 Worth Of Linen.

Let’s Do The Math.
Pay $100,000 For Dinner.
About $5,000 Goes To Charity.
The Remaining $95,000 Funds The Sussex Lifestyle™.

That’s Not Philanthropy. That’s A Cover Charge.

And The Irony? Selling Access To Royal Titles Is Exactly What Got Prince Andrew Nuked From Orbit. The Difference Is Brutal: Andrew Had Real Elite Connections. Harry? The Elite Circle Picked Team William — Thank You Very Much. One Brother Has The Crown And The Future. The Other Has Speaking Gigs And Resentment.

And Let’s Be Honest — Paying Six Figures To Dine With These Two Sounds Less Like A Luxury Experience And More Like A Hostage Situation. Imagine Trying To Enjoy Your Starter While Being Lectured About Generational Trauma, Media Cruelty, And How Unfair Life Is When You’re A Multi-Millionaire In California.

Meghan, Of Course, Would Treat This As A Networking Opportunity. MLM Markle Never Misses A Pitch. Somewhere Between The Main Course And Dessert, She’d Casually Drop A “New Authentic Initiative” Or A “Purpose-Driven Brand” That Just Happens To Need Funding. Royal Titles Monetized. Vibes Weaponized.

What Makes This Even More Embarrassing? They Were Explicitly Told Not To Do This.
No Half-In, Half-Out Royalty.
No Monetizing The Crown.
No Sussex Royal Cash-In.

Yet Here We Are: Duke And Duchess For Hire.
Royal Icing. Royal Crumbs. Absolutely No Shame.

So Who’s Actually Lining Up For This? Who Wakes Up And Thinks: “You Know What Would Really Improve My Life? Paying Six Figures To Hear Harry Overshare Family Secrets And Meghan Refer To Herself In The Third Person.”

You Could Buy A Car.
You Could Donate Directly To Charity.
You Could Get A Colonoscopy And At Least Gain Something Useful.

Netflix Projects Failing. Brands Losing Interest. Contracts Quietly Expiring — And Suddenly, Surprise, It’s Charity Dinner Season. Grifter Is Going To Grift. The Banner Might As Well Be Hanging Over The Montecito Gates:

ROYALTY FOR SALE.

At This Point, The Titles Look Less Like Honors And More Like Marketing Tools. And If You Have To Auction Yourself Off To Stay Relevant, Maybe It’s Time To Admit The Fairy Tale Is Over — Or At Least Stop Pretending This Was Ever About Helping Anyone Other Than Yourselves.
